my lavender pekins laid their first eggs !!! but I live in South Africa so it's winter here. It gets VERY cold here maybe _- 10 in the nights and 6 in the day. so i'm not comfy with them. should I let them do it all and just put a heat bulb in their nest - cage which they sleep at night or...
I have one brahma chick that's about 6 - 7 weeks old. he lives insides in the house with a cage that's open like a bird cage. I don't warm him anymore with a bulb but I put a blanket over his cage at night. he is starting to get messy and naughty. when can I put him outside ????
should I put a time in for placing the food for the chicks? because this afternoon I felt my chick but he's crop was kind of hard. it was he eating because I hold him a lot, would something happen to him or is it okay, it's not that hard i'm just a little worried. he poop's and drinks water.
I only have brahma's and want to entroduce my new brahma chicks to the main flock with their mother. On what age should i do it and will the flock members peck them? if they do what should i do?
I have 6 brahma's, 2 of my hens is laying on the eggs but I'm worried because this is the first time my brahma's layn and the eggs are gonna hatch in two weeks. Are brahma's good mothers?
I'm gonna do youth shows with my chickens. I have brahma's but the people say'd I should get a smaller chicken. I really like pekin's and silkie's. What would you say is best between two for easy handling and personality?
