    Help with hen plucking feathers - PHOTOS included

    I've got the same problem and haven't yet solved it either. At first I thought maybe lice or mites but I've dusted and dusted and still the same. Mine are on the top of the tail area on about a third of my flock. If anyone knows let me know. Thanks

    What to feed Turkey's

    I take it that they did eat as to their size but I,have only had them three days." It's been several days now and still no eating.

    What to feed Turkey's

    I have a couple turkeys, about 8 weeks old, don't plan to butcher, just pets to watch. I was told by the feed store to feed them 30% protien crum. What else do you feed them, table scraps, meat, veggies, potatoes, etc? I got them a couple days ago and they haven't touched the crum, I first put...

    Disinfecting the Run Grounds

    Thanks for all the advice. The only reason I was concerned was so many birds pooping on the same ground for so long, it seems that it should be cleaned other than just a racking once in awhile. No deseases that I'm aware of.

    Disinfecting the Run Grounds

    Just curious, when chickens are kept in a run, no free ranging, is there a way to disinfect the ground once in awhile without endangering the birds? A spray or something that can be applied to the dirt but that they can continue to be in, I'm not able to free range them and don't have any other...

I have been told this area is to wet and cold and that it is more in the dryer areas to the south. I have about 40 chickens at this time and would like to add a Turkey run and coop next to the...

    Bantoms

    I have about 30 chickens now and have thought about adding a few Bantoms into the flock, do they mix o.k. or is that a very bad idea? What I have now are mixed breeds, I just love chickens. It would be expensive to build another whole coop and run. What I have now has lots of room in the run and...
