Hello, I was just wondering when to start feeding my baby rescued pigeon defrosted peas. He hatched 12 days ago and is still on Kaytees Exact hand feeding formula. He has been eating great so I didn't know if it was time to introduce peas or not. Also, once I do start him on the peas, does he...
Thank you very much for your help! I have been monitoring the temperature very closely with a thermometer right beside the baby. My incubator and brooder is being used right now, so a heat lamp is the only option I have. It seems to be working well. I will start offering it water more often. I...
Hello, someone contacted me a few days ago and asked if I would house a baby dove that had been blown out of its nest during a storm. I've had chickens for years and have always been pretty good at nursing sick ones back to health (partially due to BYC) and figured I would take on the challenge...
I wasn't sure which section to post this in but I am doing a research paper on disorders and diseases in chickens. I'm having a hard time finding credible websites to find information on the topics I'm doing my paper on. Just wondering if you all have any good resources you could share. The...
Got some better pics
Here are a few pictures of one of my Golden Phoenix cockerels. These hatched this past summer. I have three of them. ( They were taken inside for better lighting.) These three all hatched within a few days of each other so they are basically the same age and size...
I live in Stanly County, North Carolina and have lots of beautiful roosters that I have to get rid of. They are free to anybody that would like one. We are willing to drive up to an hour to meet you.

According to Google Maps, it looks like you're about 2 and a half hours away but we could probably meet you somewhere like Charlotte or Gastonia. Saturday mid-morning would be great. I'm going to be around that area. Let me know what you think -Olivia
Hey, neighbor! Want some roosters? LOL
Anyways, here are the pics.
The one below is the same breed as the one above(Golden Phoenix), but below are the tail feathers fully grown in.
Please let me know if you are interested! I can take...
Good morning guys! I am from Stanly County-about an hour east of Charlotte. I have some roosters that I need to get rid of. They are all healthy and very pretty. I have several golden phoenixes, Easter eggers, and a few very appealing cross breeds. I love them all and wish we could keep them...
Thank you so much. That makes a lot of sense.
I'm super glad I posted here. I would have been so upset if i got DQed.
Maybe I'll show some of my standard size chickens this year at the fair.
Thanks for all the help. (:
