I have a four month old high quality Black Copper Maran Roo for sale for $30 OBO. Purchased egg from "Bargain" in GA. He is a C-1 line from Jean Wade; just beautiful and has feathering down his legs & feet; pics below. He is just too beautiful to be used for husband fly tying hobby. Will not...

I am in need of some pekin ducks for my lonely male who just lost his buddy.

Okay, I isolated this hen as soon as I noticed it was getting worse, but I'm afraid some of my other hens may also be infected. My rooster beat her up pretty bad...her back is bare and she must have laid a huge egg because her vent is prolapsed; she is coughing, wheezing, and sometimes gasping...

Can someone please explain to me the difference in temps/humidity and days for chickens vs duck eggs?

I wonder if someone could help me with this chick; It's a barred rock born yesterday and at the time of hatch both feet were turned toward inward...today the left foot is fine and the right foot's toes are fanned outwards toes appear to be broken. The chick can stand and walk. Should I tape...

I was NOT expecting the chicks to hatch today; they are due tomorrow; however, I have five so far. I had to remove two of them because they were bothering the ones that just hatched. I dipped their beaks in water and they seem to have to have that down, but I just realized I do not have...

Hi, I'm looking for some pekin ducks, mostly hens needed. I have a nice pond with a duck house and they will be spoiled. Will consider fertile eggs....I only have one drake now and he's so lonely he's trying to mate with my golder retriever. Hoping and praying!

Alright...I hope someone can help. I have 10 hens and one rooster. Two of the hens are buff orpingtons (my favorite). All of the hens are being mated by this rooster...he doesn't beat up on them too much, but only the two buffs are bare back....What can I do? I have tried putting Bag Balm on...

Does anyone know what age you can put chicks in a chain link fence run, so they aren't able to walk through it? My chicks are 4 weeks old now and I don't want to have to put another type of screen across the chain link fence.

I noticed that a few of my 3 week old chicks are dusting themselves in the pine shavings.....should I provide dirt/sand for them to dust in?

These chicks are not quite 1 week old; any ideas on sex yet? I posted this on another thread, but didn't get any responses......Anybody??? 1. Three Buff Orpingtons 2. I was told this was an Araucana?? Front & Back view: 3. Barred Rocks: Is there some way to tell the sex on these...

Well here is my first ever hatch! Another view! Another Pip 1st Barred Rock! What a cutie! So perfect! Born June 3, 2008 at 8:15 p.m. Thanks Miss Prissy, et al...... for all your help with the homemade incubator. First one out, 16 more to go!

Since my incubator eggs are pipping....I thought I would check on my broody. I stuck four barred rock eggs under her the same day that I stuck them in the (Miss Prissy) homemade bator!!! Well guess what????? I SAW a completely hatched shell and heard chirping....It's ALIVE! She did it!!! I...

Oh my....I can't believe it...I'm soooo excited.! This is Day 20 and out of 17 eggs 4 of my Barred Rocks have pipped! I tried to take pictures, but the camera isn't focusing on the cracks. Will keep you all posted! Thank you everyone for all your help up to this point! Did I tell you...

I don't exactly know how to ask this....but how long after a Roo mates with a hen are the eggs fertile..... Say the Roo was with the hens Wed night, all day Thursday and they were seen mating....would Fridays eggs be fertile??????

Wow! That was the fastest 16 days ever and I have thoroughly enjoyed connecting and turning my eggs three times a day...but Day 18 is getting close. Most of my eggs left in the bator are doing very well. I have 1 EE, 10 Barred Rocks, 3 silkies, and 6 BO's. All but one shows signs of active...

I hope someone can help me....I have a game rooster with 4 hens; 2 are game hens and 2 are barred rocks. He mates with all of them, however, is very rough on the barred rocks. When I let them free range the two barred rocks go one way and the roo and 2 game hens stick together around the...

I just wanted to vent...hope it's okay.... Hubby and I went out for an hour before dark and the girls were not ready to be locked up in their coop; I told him we wouldn't be long and will be right back.....well, a few minutes turned into two hours and before long it was 8:30 p.m. before we got...
