I have a weird situation that I'm extremely concerned about, especially since I have fertile eggs coming. I get birds (mostly various types of doves) in my coop and my hens gang up on them and kill and eat them if I'm not around to help them escape (they get in underneath and then can't figure...

I was very honest in my ad...I have done dog rescue for years and have always found it best to give the facts, rather than hiding them, to find a dog a forever home. I did the same for Mr Roo. He hasn't touched the barred rock (I suspect she'd beat the crap outta him! LOL), nor has he touched...

After the fact, I'm pretty sure my silkie (possibly mix) roo killed my sweet lil silkie hen...I got there before she actually died and tried to save her, but her head wounds were too severe. I had originally thought it to be my turkey hen or my gander...until I witnessed the severity of Mr...

I'm looking into solar fans for when mine finally make it outside again (I've kept them inside in air-conditioned comfort during our Arizona summer...large bins and tons of daily strips of hand-cut newspaper!) Of course, being the desert, winter can get pretty cold here too, so I'm looking...

Just saw this post. It's years later than the info posted now, but I have a pet bronze female with a crooked neck. Luckily we have a Tractor Supply fairly close and my girl is a pet and follows me around like a dog , so will be easy to catch and dose. I'm glad I found this post to learn how to...

Metronidazole is frequently given to dogs for unexplained diarrhea and for diarrhea from some parasites (I had a couple foster dogs from a hoarding situation come to me with giardia). I don't know if you could get just any vet to prescribe this medication without seeing the patient (especially...

I have one bronze hen in Mesa, Arizona and have been having problems keeping her cool this summer. Thus far (believe it or not) I've been keeping her inside my house during the hottest time of the day and letting her out to wander around dusk when you can actually BREATHE! I don't have anything...

When I had mine, I put bubble wrap on the "ceiling", but I was keeping mine in a bin with an area cut out of the lid and plastic mesh (for craft projects) duct taped over the opening I made...the rest of the underside of the lid had the bubble wrap duct taped on. This setup seemed to work fine...

Maybe try coconut oil for the feet

I have two "quackers", Ritz and Triscuit and a turkey poult, McStuffin. All three are babies, although McStuffin is older by a couple-three weeks or so. I started housing McStuffin with the quackers, because he or she (straight run, so unknown sex) is frantic when being left alone (when I'm...
