Please help! This is my 1st time breeding and incubating red golden pheasants.
2 pipped yesterday morning. This morning one of them has a hole in the side of the egg and i can see the baby. But i can see that the thin paper layer is still on the baby. And i believe i see a little blood. The...
I habe a question i have a flock of 60 or so chickens. A mix of hens and roos of different varieties. Well i want to breed specific breeds now. For examples i have speckeled roo and hen pairs, and polish pairs. So they have been free range and many different types of roos have breed with all of...
