RP dying
She passed a couple hours ago. Wierd - she seemed fine a couple days ago, and everyone is doing fine. From the time I noticed her failing until she died was ~ 24hrs. Just pray she didn't have something contageous. I was thinking maybe she ingested something... No idea... Thanks for your... -
RP dying
It's separated. She did move herself out from under the bush to the driveway (about 50ft), but not able to walk. Her eyes are wide and brite. No runny nose, no external symptoms. Put her beak in water but didn't seem like she drank, and no interest in food. I doubt she'll make it thru the... -
RP dying
This question may be too late, but I noticed yesterday one of my RP poults standing in the pen while the other 6 were out and about. I didn't think much of it, but this morning in the coop it was doing the same, while the others were anxious to get out and free range. I had to go in and pick... -

My newly hatched Bourbon Red Poults
I too bought RBs from Skaff, and today is day #16 in the incubator. I ordered a doz, and he sent me 14. From what I could tell from pictures of his birds they are a nice looking dark/rich bourboun color. I'm looking forward to the hatch. Thanks for posting. -

3 p.m. fox attack
Thanks for the information... We have a lot of fox in Northern VA, and a reason hunt clubs (fox hunting on horses) are so popular with the rich around here (I'm not included in the "rich" class). So tell me, what kind of traps do you have the most luck with and how many do you put out (traps)... -
