Aren't they cute? http://www.safetygirl.com/safetygirl-work-boots-womens-steel-toe-light-pink.html

Hi, There are three different Brinsea minis - the eco, the advanced and the advanced EX. All three of them are listed here: http://www.brinsea.com/products/mini.html Does anyone have the Advanced EX version and if so: - have you hatched Serama out of it? - do 12 Serama eggs fit in the...

Hello, I did not know where to post this question, but I assume since this forum is partially regarding poultry shows...and since most sanctioned shows are either APA or ABA I figured I would start here. I recently became a member of the ABA and the SCNA, and I'm simply wondering what...

I remember something I saw or heard in my youth. It had something to do with a green jogging suit, and the person wearing it felt like a watermelon with a head while wearing it. I also seem to recall something to do with the person's dog; it wouldn't bark when he saw strangers, but would...

Has anyone tried H & H Old Fashioned Chicken Feed with their flock and if you've personally tried it what results did it have within your flock? Positives? Negatives? The ingredients are listed here on their site: http://www.handhsoyfreechickenfeed.com/default.html and I'm looking at the...

This was an interesting read (to me) so I figured I would share it. It was written in 2002 so I'm sure some of you have already read it, but I know others haven't. http://ag.ansc.purdue.edu/poultry/multistate/Multi%20State%20Poultry.pdf

I know this is probably a longshot, but it would be really helpful if there could be a separate forum area for those who are trying to sell their birds but will not ship them, and a forum area for those who are willing to ship them. Several times (cannot even count how many) I've clicked on a...

I was wondering if anyone here at BYC would be interested in participating in a "by mail" version of Friendship Bread? =) I used to do these chains all the time with my mother and her friends when I was growing up. Then, when I became older I started doing them with my friends, etc. However...

Hi, Right now we are using the extra small cheapy plastic waterers because they're all still chicks and they really don't need elaborate water set-ups in their brooders. But, they will soon be moving into the coop, and I can tell you now I'm not going to want to be going out there 10x or more...

All I can say about our coop is that I literally cried when he arrived with it. I have never seen anything so expertly crafted in my entire life and all those pictures don't do it justice. This thing was rock solid from top to bottom...no way anything is getting in or out of it unless we put...

According to Wikipedia (which actually isn't always accurate), the Araucana, Ameraucana and easter eggers all stemmed from the same three starting breeds (those listed in the title) I was wondering if anyone in the United States was breeding any of the three starter breeds, and had their own...

I'm wondering if anyone has hatched and raised chicks and were told they were direct from a certain breeder (a well known breeder whose birds are highly sought after) only to find out later that these birds are *not* from the lines of said breeder and are completely unrelated. Do I have any...

I was wondering if anyone could tell me if a temperature spike in a 'bator for 6 hours at 103.5 to 104 could cause a chick to hatch out as a complete problem child, meanie-head cull-worthy obnoxious fart? We had a temp spike, I've spoken about it several times on this forum, and ended up with...

Hi y'all, I'm wondering why virtually every picture I see of baby chicks - they are fluffy and beautiful and alert and standing on their feet...posted as "newly hatched" or "new". Mine don't look anything remotely like fluffies until day 3 of their little lives at least - sometimes day 4...

I don't know if it's because I've taken such a strong interest in preserving GOOD quality chickens or if it's because I'm losing my soul as one person accused me of, but my opinion regarding culling has changed. We had a Silkie born completely deformed yesterday. I mean, leg and wing are...

Disclaimer: I'm not trying to be a troll, lol...I'm just clarifying what I think many people might not know. Possums are not indigenous to the United States; they don't live here anywhere other than zoos. You've also probably heard that one is the Australian version and the other is the...

Is anyone else up and cruising BYC because you can't sleep due to "thanksgiving heartburn" ... I am. lol! Nope I don't need a doctor, just Tums. I don't get heartburn but twice a year - Thanksgiving and Christmas.

If someone would please help me here, I would be eternally grateful. There are literally hundreds of tutorials online and offline with regard to how to clip the wing but I can't find a single source telling me how to actually start the entire process. To clip a wing you have to maneuver and...

Okay, so my mother told me about this cool whip commercial on TV that completely grossed her out, which made me "have to" (out of curiosity) watch tv for a while. My husband and I do not watch TV because of the garbage everywhere - so we mainly rent. In any case - she was right. YUCK. It is...

Common sense tells me to cull her, but I just don't know for sure. She is deformed in her right wing, as it stretches outward like a human arm, rather than folding inward like a chicken wing. She's gorgeous in coloring, just like her sibling that hatched earlier today, and she has quite the...
