    WTB Quality Sumatra or Jungle Fowl lines

    I'm looking for exceptional lines of Sumatras and Red Jungle Fowl. I currently have a small flock of the San Diego zoo Red Jungle Fowl line, and I am curious of anyone that has this line or any other one. As for Sumatras, I'm most interested in Black but I'm looking around for all colors...

    Temperature and lockdown in Hovabator

In the past I've noticed that when I remove the egg turner and put the eggs on the bottom screen, my thermometer (not the one built into the top, but an additional digital one that I...

    Let's talk Golden Cuckoo Marans!

    I've been skimming/searching this thread and noticed that Golden Cuckoo Marans don't seem to breed true. Just looking at the first post, you can get Salmons, Silver cuckoos, blacks, wheatons marans roos. I only have 1 hen and 8 roos. The roos all look different, but the female (which I have...

    I just bought I used copy of the SOP off amazon, definitely a must for me. Thanks. I'm not saying I would NEVER go to a show, but theres a lot of poultry diseases that stay hidden between flare ups. It could be a very costly mistake. However as ramirez is saying, you meet a lot of experts in...

    Cedar Creek Hatchery - KEEP AWAY!

    Looks like their webpage is down. I guess they're out of business. I ordered 10 Golden Cuckoo Marans chicks. Got 11, one was DOA, no problem. Customer service was alright. However, it turns out all my Cuckoo Marans are male except one. Now I know that they are can be sexed at birth, so I'm...

    Blue Laced Red Wyandotte THREAD!

    I haven't scanned through all 644 pages of this thread so I apologize for this is a redundant question. BUT I'm hoping y'all can help me.
