    What would come from these two?

    Oh thank you. What I am planning is to have layers and chicks. I'm just getting started though and will need to build a bigger pen. Right now there are 2 hens and 3 roosters in an 8X10 space. I just gave away two of the Reds and hope to give away one more. I know I only need one with the two...

    Hi there. In my title I use the word newbie not only because I'm new here but because I'm new at raising poultry. I have ten four week old ducks and seven chicks. The chicks were sent by Ideal Poultry as warmers and are roosters. I purchased two Black Jersey hens last week at a local feed store...
