I added some quick, and one has pipped!! OMG it is going to happen

I haven't posted in this thread today, its day 21 of my very first set of eggs! Well, my second :( on day 9-10 of my first the power went out for over 24 hours. I think I messed up, the humidity is low. Can I add water now?

I have an old english game bantam from a hatchery that i am waiting for to get big enough to put in with my large fowl hens. I am starting to think she will never be big enough to hold her own against them. I have had her for almost two months and it seems she has hardly grown a bit.

did they ever get a home?

What kind of waterer will actually last more than a few hours? I have 5 ducklings. They are about 3 weeks old. The person I got them from recommended to take a tupperware and cut a hole in the lit just big enough to fit their mouth. It worked, but it only lasts an hour. I am not into refilling...

I have a rooster that got in a rooster battle. It totally destroyed his face and took his eyeball. Up until today there was a scab over his eye socket and we had not seen what was under. Today we gently peeled the scab to find it is very badly infected and totally empty. His entire face is...

7 eggs from 8 hens, but one is broody

I sure hope so! It was my favorite birds that are still missing. One of my best laying hens, my pretty splash Cochin, and a juvenile easter egger roo with the cutest puffy cheeks :( As well as my two turkey hens

about a week ago, a dog got into my chicken coop and scattered my birds. I ended up missing three chickens and two turkeys. With them not showing up over the past week, I had totally given up on them being alive. One came home today!!!! She is skinny and scared, but HOME! Think there is...

oh my gosh. All your birds? That does not seem right at all. not only did everything test negative, but it was eggs. not like you took those eggs and rubbed them all over your birds. This hurts my heart

my turkeys try and roost on the frame of the coop. it has a tiny little lip that is not big enough for them to even start to get on, but it does not stop them from trying nightly

I like to keep several hens per rooster so the hens are not bothered too much by an "overly affectionate" rooster

I am no longer a polish momma. I sold mine I feel bad :( I was so excited to see how my silver laced polish turned out. But, we went a different direction for our flock

I am having a hard time finding babies to give little guy a friend (or two muahaha)

I wired a small dish to my chicken run about chicken height. That is their feeder for oyster shell

Just for funsies. I went to the farm store yesterday, and they had two little assorted bantam chicks left. They looked so sad and lonely so I bought them. One had sever pasty butt (its vent was totally blocked, but we cleared it up now) Any guesses as to breed?

at what age are polish easiest to sex? I am about ready to see if I have boys or girls but I don't know how to sex polish lol

He is just the greatest. He will even let me pick him up and move him about with out too much fuss. Night and day from our old roo. Our old one was mean and very aggressive with humans. He attacked my 4 year old daughter, and that was the end of him unfortunately. I was very worried that once...
