I would cull him. He will always have a tendency to sneak up on you. You can defend yourself, but what if he sneaks up on one of your grandkids? I just got a trio of Brahmas a month ago, The roo tried to sneak up on me once. So now, either I find someone who wants a trio of Brahmas, or, he...

If she's a border collie/heeler cross, I imagine she will be very intelligent (both breeds are and I love the heelers) and loyal to the family. I had Am esk/Heeler cross. Thank god she got the heeler smarts. Super intelligent, only had to show her what I wanted once or twice at the most and...

Sorry for your loss. Give it time. I always brought the dog back for the others to smell. (I breed basenji's so have always had mutliple dogs) I've found after the years that this is the best way to work it out. But, since it's too late for that, give it time. If you find he is too...

I agree with the Egyptain Fayoumis. I went to the link and the chicks look exactly like the one you have. I'm kind of jealous now!

I'd like to know how the employees can't figure it out yet. With the mass media exposure, cameras (okay, it's a contest, but how many times can you say that in front of a camera for a TV show and now one else figure it out?) why isn't someone else picking up on 'it's the boss?' There are...

Hmm, I've seen the commercial and my daughter and friend would use it also-if it worked! I wondered the same thing.

Here is a link that was a link that was given to me. http://www.feathersite.com/Poultry/BRKRaisingDucklings.html It's pretty informative. But, IMO I would say they are much too hot. When I first started reading (I've done this before, just not for a couple of years and have forgotten...

#1 judging by your comments, if you are on meds for depression-they are not working properly for you. Go back to the Dr until they get something that works for you. Not every med is for every person, and sometimes it takes a lot of time to find the correct meds for you. #2, yes you need...

I'm sorry about your hen. I have no advice, but I think I remember a similar thread? I'll look around for it. I can't find the specific post. I 'm not sure if it was under predator attacks/emergencies, or somewhere else. I think the main thing in all the broken/injured leg threads was to...

Oh, these are only about a week old. I meant that they can probably go outside at about 3.5 weeks. Sorry, should have been clearer. These little ones have a way to go! Thanks for the link!

Okay, they are outside together and doing okay. But, should I put them together inside? or, should I still keep them separate??

I've been told they are easter eggers, which, I believe are descended from Americaunas. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong.

I have new pics of the crew. I think I agree that they will be all hens. The one has a split beak? Not sure what else to call it. Any advice? She's made it this far, so I think she's okay with it. Could it have happened today? I just never noticed it before, but they always hid. It's...
