    When To & When To Not Use Heat Packs For Shipping

    I just started shipping chicks over the Winter and so it was pretty obvious to include heat packs. Now that it's Spring/Summer, I don't know when to and when not to include heat packs for shipping chicks! It can get so hot during the day and then be much cooler during the night. Any peices of...

    Light Sussex Mixes?

    I bought some hatching eggs a while ago and everything turned out to look like Light Sussex...except two. Pictures below: Any ideas as to what what they're mixed with or if it's just a normal coloration that happens from time-to-time?

    Using Poultry Nipple Waterers in Brooders

    Alright, so, I finally jumped onto the poultry nipple waterer idea! But now, I'm afraid to use them. I'm going to set them up in some of my breeder pens ALONG with regular waterers in hopes that my older chickens will figure out the nipple waterers. However, I'm not sure how to introduce it to...

    How Long Will Eggs Be Fertile From One Rooster For?

    I wasn't sure how to phrase this question, so let me give you the info. I bought two Red Shoulder Yokohama hens today. Before this evening, they were housed with a RSY rooster. I was planning on keeping the hens in a pen by themselves for a while so that I'd get the pure RSY eggs (I read that...

    Could You Tell Me What Color This Peacock Is?

    I've had this guy for a while and he just doesn't look anything like my India Blue peacock. He is 2 years old now. The lady I bought him from last year suggested that he *may* be an Emerald. To be honest, I know very little about the colors of peafowl. What would you call him?

    Weird Ball On Cornish Chick's Behind

    I had a Dark Cornish chick hatch yesterday. It seems perfectly fine aside from one thing...it has this red ball on it's behind. The ball seems like it's actually attached to the chick. I don't know what to do about =/ It seems healthy (it's only day 2 though), so I don't know if this red ball...

    Could someone give me an idea of the gender of these four silkies? Or do they still look too young? I just recently got them...also, with the last two, what should I use to clean up their chest? I think they've been getting into my pig's food and it looks so terrible! '

    Rooster's Wattles, Comb, and Feet Turned Purple...Then He Died

    I had a black copper maran do something weird. A while back, we had a really bad series of rainstorms and he got sick. We took him to the vet, got some medicine, and after a week..he stopped sneezing and his runny nose was gone. But he also stopped crowing (well, he'd try, but there wasn't any...

    Turkey Dusting Sequence

    I just recently did a 15 photo sequence of my Bourbon Red turkey dusting. I posted one pic above :) It was pretty fun! It took quite a bit of watching, waiting, shooshing away an angry tom, and then finally...THE MOMENT OF GLORY! And it lasted less than 15 seconds, haha Here's the link to all...

    Sexing Adult Emus

    Hi everyone! So, I'm getting 9 adult emus this week that are around 8 years old. The guy we're buying them from knows virtually nothing about them (he recently inherited them and doesn't want them), so needless to say...he doesn't know how many males or females there are. It's obvious that one...

    Nasty Ducks Making Nasty Water

    Ok, so I have a really disgusting problem. We have two small ponds in our barnyard area. Our chickens share their space with about 15 ducks (it's a really big space, so they exist well). Problem is..the ducks are always in the ponds. And the pond water has turned black. I mean BLACK! If it...
