    Adding to my flock? What should I choose??

    For a friendly bird, I definetly suggest the orpington. I don't have any personal experience with ayam ceymanis, but I have heard they can be aggressive at times. Cochins and silkies also would be great, friendly birds. Ofcourse, size might be a problem with the wyandotte and silkie if they did...

    Still Air Question

    Hello everyone! I was wondering about my new still air incubator. It said to turn the eggs every four hours 45° to the right. I put four eggs in it late this evening, but I won't be home until late tommorow evening. My question is this- will the eggs be alright not being turned for that long?

    Lone guinea fowl

    Guineas are the most independent species of poultry that there is. They do well free ranging and mine mostly just live on my property, feeding themselves and sheltering themselves. They do stay in the place they'e raised. Problems come when they are moved to a new location, then they tend to...

    No, not necessarily. Sometimes they be, but is just coincedance. The only way to be sure is vent sexing.

    Protective Mother Goose

    Hello! I would say do not get rid of her! She is just portraying her natural instincts to protect and care for her young. she will most certainly go back to the old goose as soon as her babies no longer rely fully on her. Also, have you seen the goose bite your daughter? no doubt the goose did...

    White Chinese

    I have raised geese for quiet awhile now, and it would be overall impossible to tell the sex of the geese from the picture provided. In fact it would be ALMOST impossible to tell from even the best photo, until they are grown.

    Why are my drakes going across the street?

    Since your neighbors have a right to have birdseed lol and also to take action against you, or your ducks. The only solution is putting them in a pen, or a fence keeping them in the yard.

    Help!! Too many male ducks :(

    If you have the room and feed, you could find two or three more females to balance everything out, so you won't have to worry about losing the ones you are already attached to.

    Can I give my broody duck ducklings?

    With my experience of bloody hens, whether ducks or chickens, they vary greatly in ways they brood and how they respond to chicks. But the best way to go about it is this: Let her keep her eggs a few days, to get attached and know they are going to hatch. Then one might slip the babies under...
