    Searching for white Legbars in NC

    I guess I forgot to reply... There isn't a specific code for the white variety, but it should still help to locate an narrow down by Legbar code. Thank you.

    Are there any sellers for hatching eggs that will include a USDA health certificate?

    Like someone else said.. we are guessing they mean "NPIP". Here's a link: https://www.poultryimprovement.org/default.cfm

    Searching for white Legbars in NC

    Cajun Chicken Whisperer, I am also looking for a source for good White Legbar. We are in S/W Tennessee. Would be interested in shipped eggs, chicks, or adults if driving distance. Only thing I have seen lately is eBay hatching eggs shipped from Texas.

    Tennessee

    Couldn't figure out how to delete my iso post, so I am just replying to it -lol. Found a nice adult Chinese Goose for the bonus gander. They seem to get along, and be obvious male/female, but while she is living the dream down by the pond, but he still spends most of his time "patrolling" up by...

    Tennessee

    CHINESE GOOSE WANTED - W. TN We just moved to McNairy County West Tennessee, and are looking for a female Chinese Goose (preferably not white) for the "bonus goose" that was left by previous owners, who looks like an older male to me. I don't mind if she is older too since she would just be...

    Dying Bantum Chicks

    🤣 that’s what I get for computering in public before finishing my coffee! It was at the top of some list of posts that popped up, so it didn’t even occur to me to look.

    Dying Bantum Chicks

    Oh bummer.. glad you found the problem! You can calibrate new thermometers with the ice water method, and use a second for back up. One other thing I learned the hard way is that many of the flood style bulbs and heat bulbs now have an “anti-shatter” coating that is Teflon, just like the...

    TSC chicks keep dying despite ideal conditions

    Sorry about your chicks, it’s always a kick in the gut to go from watching the antics of fluffy little happy guys, to pulling the deceased out of the brooder. This may or may not apply here, but I’ll throw it out in case it helps someone... most of us know, the fumes from non stick cookware can...

    Overstocked tanks at new job and I can't do anything about it.

    If possible, have a separate box, tank, whatever set up with a heat lamp or other heat source already hooked up and going.. get a plastic container that’s not too heavy when about 3/4 full of water to move and dump, but large enough for you to get a hand comfortably in. With my own chicks I...

    Overstocked tanks at new job and I can't do anything about it.

    Better said than what my post chicken feeding, lazy Sunday, pre coffee self came up with.

    Overstocked tanks at new job and I can't do anything about it.

    Take a suitably sized piece of cardboard, and gently herd chicks to one side. Clean other side, (you can use another piece of cardboard as a scoop if you don’t have something better) then do the same for the other side. You obviously can’t sanitize this way, but you can keep the shavings...
