I have a question. I have a game hen who was perfectly fine for the first two weeks we have had her then all of a sudden she is just real lethargic and sleeping all day. She has no other symptoms. Any ideas?
Question about the game birds. We got two babies we were told were hens but they were only two months old. Now they are about 4 or 5 and I noticed both of them have started growing the flaps of skin on the side of theirs mouths. Can hens have that?
OK reading all these posts and I'm a little confused. Can you only vaccinate when they are just hatched or can you vaccinate later? I bought all mone from individuals and I'm not sure that any have been vaccinated.
thank you! Silkie are very hard to get ahold of where I live! I don't feel comfortable ordering them and having them shipped. I like to see where they come from. My 9 year old is going to start raising them and showing them.
thank you so much! It was sold to us as a black but the more it grew the more light coloring started coming through! I'm hoping its a pullet since I already have lots of roos!!! It's very sweet once you catch it and pick it up!
Thank you we are very excited! We are learning as we go and it is more difficult than expected!! I've read a lot on here when I have had questions! Great place for learning!
