    Raising Meat Rabbits

    We just started raising meat rabbits in March of this year. Our breeders all have names. Our feeders are not not named. I guess keeping them on a no name basis helps when it comes time to butcher. They are looked on and thought of as "food" and who names their food? LOL. It's not easy with...

    The African and Chinese goose thread!!

    Hi all! Just wanted to see what info there was about Chinese geese as we have had them for a year now. We started out with a brown gander and a white goose. When we bought them, we had also bought 6 guinea keets and had to put them in with the goslings. The geese thought the keets were their...

    Amen to that Cluck! I don't take vaccinations either nor will I add medications to my birds. All my birds are healthy and strong, Like you said, the key is cleanliness and good diet.

    I need some help.. I have 6 guineas, 2 males, 4 females. Starting about 3 weeks ago, they started to become very aggressive towards my chickens. Yesterday I was working out in the yard, when one of them took off after my little hen that was still recuperating from a dog attack. He actually had...
