    New Black Spanish- fearful of tom?

    Our Tom, Pretty boy, took a lot of getting used to. He's a one year old bourbon red and we got him about four months ago so he was good sized. I'd never been around a bird that large so I was very nervous. So far he's been a doll but his mate, cici, is a terror. She hisses any time I collect...

    Comprehensive list of poisonous plants and trees

    Wow... pretty much everything in my yard is deadly. They pretty much stay away from it all aside from the occasional nibble though. The only thing out of an entire vegetable and flower garden that's been cleaned was my rabbit eye blueberry bush, they even ate the leaves.

    APRIL HATCHING EGG SPECIAL- FREE SHIPPING Any 12 ++ eggs (NPIP)

    I'm sorry, that's what I get for messaging while putting kids to bed and thinking of too many things. I have two buffs hens and lavenders in together. They would be mixed in with those so I wasn't sure if they would still throw some mauve coloring.

    Japanese Bantam Thread!

    I was gifted a btw and a btb by a friend a few years ago as they weren't sop. I bred the btw to a small Leghorn hen before neighbors dog got him. They produced a hen that's the right size but the body is too long. She is one of my best layers and happens to be the favorite of my btb. I bought an...

    Easter Egger chick colors?

    I was given these as a Valentine's gift. And wow, do they look different now. This is my favorite, gimpy, terrible name but it stuck because of the crooked toes I was unable to fix.

    Silkie Cross Thread!! PICS!!

    Got this little guy off my serama roo and silkie X Cochin hen. He has five toes and lightly feathered legs. He's a week old now and tinier than my serama chicks.

    Hatched chick with toes grown together

    I hatched an egg off my blue copper marans hen and my mix roo yesterday and it seemed fine and normal. I moved everybody out to the brooder today and noticed it wasn't putting weight on its leg. The two outside toes are grown together but it's getting around enough to eat and drink on its own...

I dropped one while loading the turner. About half were an 8 or 7 with 2 maybe 3 being a close 9. I paid thirty for them which if...
