For the last three months none of the eggs have been firtile (tested by putting them in the incubator for a week) we stopped trying 2 weeks ago as NONE of the eggs ever developed babies. Well I found one of my Muscovy...

    Can a chicken hatch Muscovy eggs?

    I have a batch of 15 Muscovy eggs that I couldn't leave for their mother to sit. I also have 2 chickens that look like they might be going broody. Will the Muscovy eggs hatch under a chicken? I know they are hard to hatch.

    Can you breed sex-linked turkeys?

    Can you? Back in June I traded some ewe sheep for month old turkey poults, the lady said they were Spanish broad breasted and bourbon red cross. Well all of the males came out black. But all of the females came out a neat grey color. Are they sex-linked? Can you even breed sex-linked turkeys...

    What would happen, Orpington addition!

    Let me start by saying I know nothing about genetics. My family was given a blue splash orpington rooster. He's a really nice almost show quality bird, but all I have are buff orpington hens. What would I get if I crossed him with the buff orpington hens?

    Really sick hen, pale shaky head liquid poop!

    I just bought a group of 12 hens that are moulting. They had their beaks "melted" when they were chicks and they are all skinny. One Buff Orpington hen didn't look good when I got her so I started her on electrolytes and I gave her a dose of LA200. I've had them around a week now. Yesterday I...

    Is this rooster a Buff Orpington or a Buff Rock?

    So this friendly handsome fella was given to use last night and I have no idea what breed he is. He's around 10 months and roughly 6 pounds, but he is a bit thin. Any guesses on his breed?

    Cochin chicks, what colors? and genders?

    My Atwoods cochin chicks are growing good and looking like I have 2 roos and 3 pullets? What colors are they? If I remember right they are 4 weeks old so I know they are too young to say for certain what genders they are but I feel like the darker 2 are roos.

    Atwoods had Cochin babies!

    I went into Atwoods on a Sunday to pick up feed (because we ran out and needed more before Monday) My dad said I could use some money to treat myself and for some reason Atwoods still has chicks? Anyway, I was walking by to get the feed we needed and what do I see running around in the pens with...
