Hello, I live in Prescott and am looking for some Muscovy's. Ducklings are prefered, However if you have a breeding group you are wanting to sell please let me know. Thank You - Nikki

I am dealing with my first broody hen. She had been sitting/setting(?) on the eggs for two days when I moved her into a set up area about 10 feet from the coop. I moved her at night and checked on her an hour later she was asleep on the nest and seemed fine. I'm assuming as soon as the sun came...

I have never hatched eggs before so this is all pretty new to me. For some reason the search feature is taking forever to load so I figured I would just post a new topic. I would like to buy an incubator for hatching chickens, quail, duck and turkeys (not at the same time of course ) We...

If anyone in Arizona is currently raising turkeys for sale alive or butchered for thanksgiving please let me know! Thanks - Nikki

Justin went out this morning on his first hunting trip (with a buddy who could show him the ropes) He shot and killed a buck Jack Rabbit at about 9am this morning. The boys dressed him out nicely and I put him in a tub of salt water at about 11:30am. So if I leave him in there until 4pm and then...

What a well done documentary! I saw a dozen people writing down the website given at the end of the film to learn more about it when they got home. I even heard one woman say that watching that helped her make up her mind to get a few laying hens. Just wondering if anyone else has seen it yet...

I have 10 month old hens that have been laying since March and a 16 week old Buff Orpington cockerel that has been mating with them as much as he can for about a week or so. I would like to try hatching the eggs eventually and we will be buying an incubator soon. How old should he be before it...

I just found out today that we are technically in Yavapai county not the city of Prescott (by 1/4 of a mile!) I spoke with the zoning department guy today and he said that it is perfectly legal for me to keep my rooster !!! I was sure I would have to get rid of him but Justin(bf) kept insisting...

I've decided to find my sweet 15 week old Buff Orpington cockerel a good home. He is a beautiful boy and friendly I hate to see him go but rules are rules and roosters are not allowed in Prescott. Let me know if you are interested

I peeked out the window into my chicken run to talk to the girls and Reu my 15 week BO cockerel and.. um.. caught him in the act. He hasn't even attempted to crow that I know of and as of yesterday my hens where chasing him around if he got anywhere near them. So my question is.... When would...

I have only been a chicken owner for 9 months and am still learning the ropes but it has been a little obvious for a couple weeks now that our 13 week old Buff Orpington is a cockerel. We even named 'her' Rue. Rue is one of my two Buff Orpington chicks that I purchased from the local grain store...

The clinic I used to work for called me this afternoon and said that construction workers had just brought in two small birds that they had found. I just picked them up and they are Gambels Quail They still have their egg tooth and are "floppy" when they move around. I'm guessing that they are...

I have had my 6 red Stars since they were little fluff balls in October and have been enjoying the nice brown eggs they give us. We just purchased our own house with a couple acres of land. So when my friend called me from the feed store and said they had baby chicks I caved. I now have 2 Buff...

Hello I haven't been on for a while due to buying a house on 2.5 acres (very very spur of the moment). I have always wanted goats for milking and I want a high butterfat content. I am most likely going with Nubians but have heard a few people talking about their pygmy milking goats. Does anyone...

We recently purchased three New Zealand's and built a nice big hutch for them each cage has an "open" area for hopping around, eating and normal rabbit stuff and a "nest" area that is closed in except for the entrance hole and a 3" window. it is filled with straw and they have been going in...

There is a male 8 month old 6lbs 5oz Holland Lop available for me. The owner has had the bun for 4 months and is allergic. the bunny is in great shape clean bill of health from the vet and sweet and large for a holland lop but I doubt it is from show stock. My question is..... If I am able to...

This is turning out to be harder than I thought I have looked online for a list of breeders and on craigslist and called the pet stores for breeder info. It seems like everyone has the lion heads and 80% of pet shops do not sell rabbits here. I have been trying to get a hold of the 4h club but...

Has anyone seen her videos? She is the one who inspired me to start a garden and get chickens, she lives in Boston I believe. http://www.gardengirltv.com/

This thread is for those who wish to discuss and or be enlightened by David Bowie or any other musical person that they respect ....except Yanni , Hanson, and anything pertaining to pigs (yuck).....or Vannila Ice That being said the main purpose is to assist Red Hen (among others) into...

I was feeding and talking to my Red Stars this morning and along with their little baby peeps I heard a "bwaaAAACK!!!" They are 12 weeks old and I was wondering if I would ever hear an actual chicken sound from them. I thought I just had quiet chickens.
