i had three Rouen ducks (2 females and one male) up until about a month ago, when unfortunately one of the girls was killed by a bobcat The day she was killed, I took 4 of their eggs and placed them under a broody chicken just to see what would happen, I thought at least there might be a chance...

In the fall of 2013, I sadly made the decision to rehome all of my chickens because they were being picked off one by one by a hungry bobcat in the area. The coop I had at the time did not have an enclosed run, so unless I wanted to keep them locked up all the time, there was no way I could...

Need to rehome my entire flock of chickens and one lonely female rouen duck. Free to GOOD HOME ONLY - please good pet home only, not for stew pot. Every summer it seems it is the same story; a bobcat picks off my flock one at a time. It is just not in the cards right now to build a run, and...

Hi everyone- Last week, I noticed one of my serama hens was looking like she possibly wasn't feeling good; sitting fluffed up and not very active. I tried to catch her a couple times but was unsuccessful, as soon as I tried to grab her she's perk up and run away. On Sunday afternoon, I was...

I have way too many roosters so I need to find these guys new homes to give my poor hens a break! I have a nearly 1 year old Wheaten Ameraucana rooster, hatched 7/11 from either peachick's or pips n peeps eggs. Nice rooster, respectful of people; he's the low man on the totem pole so he has a...

I have two Wheaten/Blue Wheaten Ameraucana cockerels available to good pet homes. Hatched 4/13/12. I already have too many roosters so these guys need to find new homes. I'm located in Baldwin, MI 49304; which is approx 90 minutes north of Grand Rapids. We do travel to Grand Rapids and...

I have an extra Wheaten (possibly Blue Wheaten ??) Ameraucana cockerel available to a good home. Hatched in July, is either from peachick's lines or pips&peeps lines (I got hatching eggs from both and had 1 rooster hatch from each batch). I *think* this one is from pips&peeps eggs but I'm not...

These two came as "freebie" eggs along with some wheaten/blue wheaten amerucana hatching eggs I got this summer. They are from very dark brown eggs. Anyone know what breed? And I think they are both hens - am I right?

I am devistated. Every single one of my hens were slaughtered by some predator last night that got into their coop. I feel so horrible. I am posting this so others can learn from my mistake. They were in the type of coop with a run underneath it. I had boards that were buried in the ground...

I guess I knew it was bound to happen sooner or later, but I'm still sad about it We live in the woods with lots of predators around, raccoons, opossoms, who knows what else. We've been putting the live trap up the last month or so and have caught and relocated two raccoons and a feral...

Free 11 month old Speckled Sussex Rooster. To keep the peace in the household, I've gotta find a new home for this guy. My husband likes to sleep in, and this guy just won't let that happen. Relatively friendly, will eat out of your hand and let you hold him (if you can catch him!), but he...

Free Speckled Sussex rooster, 11 months old. To keep the peace in the house, this guy has got to go. My hubby likes to sleep in, and this guy just won't let that happen. Relatively friendly, he's shown a little agression towards me, but is very respectful of my husband. I guess I'm just not...

A few weeks ago we had eggs coming out of our ears. We were giving them to anyone who came over but still couldn't get rid of them fast enough. About two weeks ago I put a sign out at the end of our drive for eggs. We live outside a very small town basically in the middle of the woods, I...

I'm so excited! Got my new incubator delivered today. As several of you guys have done, I bought the "Deluxe Mini Fridge/Warmer" from ThinkGeek.com. If anyone else is interested in one, I found a $10.00 off coupon code online for any purchase over $40. It is on sale for $89, but with the...

I feel so bad; my rooster's foot got stepped on this morning by my horse. I know all too well how much that can hurt - and he is so much smaller than I am! He's not putting any weight on his foot, he is holding it up and hopping around. It is somewhat swollen (although not grossly so), I can...

Hello all- A little background info; got my first chicks in June, they moved into their coop somewhere around end of July/August. They had been faithful to retiring to their coop each night as the sun went down for months. The week before Thanksgiving, we FINALLY got to move into our new...

I have a mixed flock of 10 regular sized chickens; 9 hens and 1 rooster, they are all about 3 months old. I hatched out 3 serama chicks in June, they all ended up being roosters. They are the friendliest little guys to people, love to run over to anyone and fly up to their shoulder to hang out...

Dang this is addicting LOL. I ordered some more serama hatching eggs; I ordered 6 from 2 different breeders. I got one package in the mail today (6 ordered, 16 eggs received! woohoo!) Those eggs are settling right now. I am expecting my second order of eggs tomorrow (keeping fingers...
