    Any idea on what color this could be?

    I probably have between 40 to 60 in that pen, mostly black, red, blue, white, and a couple barreds. It would be hard to get pictures of all of them lol.

    Any idea on what color this could be?

    I hatched around 30 barnyard mix chicks and have two that look like this. They're dad is probably a blue laced red wyandotte. I'm debating on keeping them just to see what they look like.

    very attached gosling

    You might want to find him a goose friend. They're incredibly social creatures and need at least 1 other goose with them. Good job on taking him in!

    Are quail more prone to hatching problems?

    My humidity at hatch has been around 40% and during incubation is around 30% dry. Temp is about 100 but fluctuates slightly during the day.

    Are quail more prone to hatching problems?

    I've had 2 quail hatches so far a week apart. Last week I had 2 with that I had to cull and this week I have 1 that's a definite cull and another that's possible. 2 had leg issues, 1 had a serious cross beak and deformed face and this last one possibly has curled toes. Does anyone know if...

    What age do geese stop laying?

    I've had my white chinese goose for about 10 years. She's been laying since I got her and I don't know her age. She usually lays around 20+ eggs annually but spring of 22' she only layed around 5 or so. Is it possible she's getting too old? I really wanted to attempt to hatch some of her eggs...

    Sustainable meat bird

    I actually made a post asking about the Delaware boilers from McMurrays, I got a few good responses from people who had them. They seem to be a good option.

    Welsummer Laying in Florida

    I'm in the same boat, I have 3 leghorns who all started laying at 20 weeks in October and late September. The rest of my birds range from 21 to 31 weeks and haven't started laying. The hip points have started widening on a few so I'm hopeful some will start laying by December. The rest I think...

    Rooster with swollen face on one side

    Hello, my legbar roo has a swollen face but only on one side. Occasionally I hear some slight congestion but usually I don't hear any. I originally thought it was from flock mates or maybe he was stung but it hasn't changed much over the past 2 weeks or so. With the tropical storm that just went...
