I have 3 young pullets(5-6 months old)in with a 18 month old roo.The hens started laying about 3 weeks ago.These are their first eggs,well first 36 eggs anyway.I know the hens are young,but shouldn't there be more than 3 eggs fertile if my rooster is doing his job?I have hatched some eggs from...

I have a 16 day old filly.I have had several foals over the past 20 years.I saw this filly eating her mothers' poop today.I have never seen that before.I know baby rabbits' first food is their moms pellets but I've never saw a foal do this.I wonder if shes lacking something or just stupid or...

There was a terrible wreck right at my drive about 2 hours ago.We heard several loud booms that we knew was a bad wreck.I'm still shaking pretty bad as I type.I'm hoping I can clear some of this from my head and maybe be able to sleep tonight.They just left with the wrecker.When we got to the...

I've got 16 young birds about 7-8 months old.I hatched from my own birds and I have to keep them up most of the time.I have always let them out to free range a couple of hours everyday that I can.They have always flew around some when I first turn them out.The only problem is they can fly over...
