    meat rabbit breed suggestion

    Hello! My birthday present is to be a trio of meat rabbits. I am super excited and know the basics of rabbit keeping and am reading "Backyard Meat Rabbits" by Boyd Craven Jr. and "Beyond the Pellet, Feeding Rabbits Naturally" by Boyd Craven and Rick Worden. My delema is what breed. I would like...

    Dog coughing, gagging, and vomiting.

    I am a certified veterinary technician and I work at an emergency clinic. Now that intro is out of the way, coughing can have soooo many causes. I have gotten quite good at imitating the various ones with the owners (is it this one? No? OK this one?) I wouldn't go straight to congestive heart...

    Comment by 'Christyleigh' in item 'Delaware'

    I agree with tommysgirl, my Delaware was a sweet, middle of the pecking order girl. She was a good layer as well and I got her from MyPetChicken. I think maybe this reviewer got a bum two which is unfortunate as they are a nice dual purpose bird.

    looking for opinions on breeds

    Not as common, but I like my Delaware. She lays about 4-5 eggs a week and is very sweet! They are also a heritage breed so that is cool.

    Last call before Peanut Butter has to find a new home.

    Really I just need you all to confirm what I know is true. He is the sweetest guy and a lap sitter and I really don't want to have to find him a new home, but roosters are not allowed in our area. I have considered moving so he can stay but the housing market is not allowing that.

    *Update* 5 weeks old now (3 week old Buff Orpington, what gender?)

    I have taken updated photos (how much they change in 2 weeks!) He or she is 5 weeks old now and looking redder in the comb than any of the other chicks. Maybe he or she is just mature (hoping) for her age? her he or she is compared to a Delaware of the same age

    my pet chicken reviews

    Sorry for the delay! They arrived as scheduled and everyone was very healthy. They are now rambunctious 5 week old adolescents.

    *Update* 5 weeks old now (3 week old Buff Orpington, what gender?)

    I may be jumping the gun, but I think my Buff Orpington is a boy. The chicks are 3 weeks old now and he or she seems to be developing more color in the comb than the others. He or she is also the designated protecter of the other three, always circling them around and ready to check out new...

    Any new pictures? I would love to see how she is looking now! I can't believe how much they change in a week!

    what breed and gender is this chick? or is it too young to tell which gender?

    It looks a lot like my 1 week old partridge cochin!
