    (only seramas) sneezing, and rattly but no discharge?

    Looking for help, advice with my 4 seramas who began sneezing a few weeks ago. I didn't think much of it, because they are all acting normal, otherwise. The sneezing is quite frequent, and only today did I bother to snag one up and you can definitely feel a rattle in her lungs, but there is...

    Black shoulder charcoal peahens

    Alright. I am no expert on peafowl genetics. I would have never thought that any might be sterile. I'm going to call the breeder of these two, so can someone give me the rundown on what I should be asking? I am confused, because if the only way to achieve a charcoal hen is to cross a charcoal...

    Black shoulder charcoal peahens

    I am honestly not sure, I got these through a friend of the person that raises them, and have his phone # to give a call to see if he has what I really want, which is a silver pied pair. I couldn't pass on these, as I know they are rare, but my birds all free range, and the thought of something...

    Black shoulder charcoal peahens

    I am not sure about laying. I have a two year old female laying now, but as I said. .. These are just a year. I can find out the parents, but it would take a phone call if you were really interested. They are very sweet tame girls, and very pretty.

    Black shoulder charcoal peahens

    I have two 2013 females I'm looking to sell, and wondered a reasonable price for these as I don't have the money to invest in a male. Any help is appreciated.

    Hatching Eggs!!!: 40+ Breeds to choose from: Starting at $3/each

    Alright....I contacted Jeff May 27th, with a ridiculous nitpicky order expecting a good portion to be unavailable, and some kind of a wait. May 31st, I got my eggs (California to NY), impeccably packaged, with 8 extras (1 extra for every 4 ordered....what?!)....Luckily my broody silkies didn't...

    Can I save an egg that is cracked!?

    I DID put wax on it, found it in another thread. The crack is at the bottom, so I don't think it could affect the hatching. I'm crossing my fingers!

    Can I save an egg that is cracked!?

    I have eggs that will hatch in one week, and noticed one got cracked on the bottom, but is still moving when I candle it....can I save it? Maybe put some tape over it or something? I'm sure it's been asked before and I'll do a search, but need a quick answer!

    Can I throw this in the composter.....what will happen?

    I cleaned out the straw/poo/sand from my chicken coop finally, and had it in a bin to till into the garden. Well, laziness got the best of me, and now the garden is planted, and the bin has been rained in, resulting in a stinky messy....mess. As I said, it is just mainly straw, with ample...

    I haven't seen this color silkie before....what is it?

    Sorry....trying to get used to the new BYC. This pic is the closest to the true color I could find....the pics make the grey look darker and the yellow look more orange.

    I haven't seen this color silkie before....what is it?

    This color is soooo much prettier than I can have show up in these pics....a pale grey undercoat, with blond tips throughout. I hope it's a hen, because if it's a rooster, it'll have to go to the country.
