Thanks for the additional info Matt. I believe I have a general idea of where the fairgrounds are located but it's been 20+ years since I've lived in Lincolnton. Last time I tried to take the backroads to Lincolnton through Burke County I ended up lost thanks mostly to Hugo coming through...

I have 8 hens all laying in one nest. They take turns which makes it difficult for me to choose the correct time to collect eggs but I keep checking back until no hen is on the nest. Here's the strange part: The "nesting box" they are actually laying in is none other than a pet crate with the...

Thanks Matt!!!! Will definitely get in touch with Effie to a location and confirm date.

Does anyone have anymore info on the possible show in Morganton, NC? I'm going to be really, really close to that area and would hate to miss it.

Sorry for jumping in on your post too Miss Prissy but I DO appreciate the info from BlueBloomers since the peafowl are going to be a whole new area for me. If I was to purchase Miss Prissy's incubator is the only thing I would need is to purchase different turners for different breeds after...

I've always used pine shavings because I heard it was best but when finances got tight I bought some straw and after watching my chickens they really seem to enjoy the straw a lot more. They seem happier. I have older chickens and would definitely go back to the pine shavings if I have small...

Miss Prissy Can other types of birds be incubated with a Quail rack? I'm looking for an incubator to start trying to hatch peafowl.

Thanks so much! I do have guinea eggs instead of Silkie eggs as I first thought. I looked and looked for a website that showed different sizes of eggs but couldn't find anything until you sent me that links. Thanks again! Lynne

I need a little help here from my fellow members. I'm completely new to raising guineas so I have a couple of questions. My guineas and silkies are in the same pen, about a month ago I started find eggs in a ground nest but I assumed it was the silkies laying them until today. When I went to...

Right now I'm living in Eastern KY but it looks like in the next month my hens, guineas and of course my teenage daughters, will be joining my hubby who finally found work in NC. He has also found us an old farm house rental in Mocksville, NC that looks and sounds like it will work perfectly...

I'll mapquest it then shave off a little time so my hubby will agreed to go......he hates to drive!

Maybe visiting in-laws in Ararat, VA. Is Danville anywhere near there?

I would like to purchase the Men's longsleeve XL Brown on Tan shirt. Thanks! [email protected]

Thank you Dawn!

Glad to hear I'm not the only one who gets the complaints about putting too much time into their chickens! My DH (the "D" stands for "Difficult" in this case) has accused me of caring more for the chickens than him.......he keeps on complaining and he'll be 100% correct! No carpentry skills...

Hi to all you chicken lovers! I'm in southeastern Kentucky, a little spot in the road called Hulen, don't blink, you'll miss it! It's located about 40 miles from the Tennessee border. I lived in Nashville for about 18 years until moving here 3 years ago. Have been to Fairview and Burns...

Thank you to everyone for their advise and the name of the paste! I appreciate all of you taking time to write! This little keet has been a mystery! Saturday night after working with it for hours it finally got up. It was running around, looked better and stronger. Started eating the feed...

Hi Wren, Thanks for your quick response. I'm heading to town in a few minutes to see if I can located some kitten replacement paste. I have kitten replacement milk here but not the paste. If unable to locate the paste I'll try the milk anyway. Also realized out of all the supplies on hand...

Purchased 6 baby keets last weekend. Everything was going good until this afternoon. Went to check on them to find one laying on it's side, not dead yet but it doesn't look good. Since it had fallen over in some poop I gave it a warm bath which seemed to perk it up quite a bit but as soon as...
