Hello… I am looking for help with identifying the colors of my young silkies. I’ve attached a picture of them. Any help would be amazing. Please! 🙏🏼 ☺️
I have 10 week old Ameraucana chicks and a couple existing blue hens, and can now sex 100%. So trying to decide which Roo(s) to keep for next springs breeding. I have the following pullets… blue, splash, wheaten and blue wheaten. I have 4 cockerels… 1 black(so far no leakage, but could change)...
Hello… a little late but I just started my journey with Hemedora chickens. I’m in Eastern Ontario, not too far from the city. I ordered shipping eggs from Breezy Bird Farm out west. I’ve ordered twice. First time I only had one hatch so I ordered more. They are in the incubator as we speak...
Hello… I hatched a few call ducklings from my flock and got a couple surprises. Currently our call ducks are snowy and blue bibbed drakes then white and black bibbed hens. Somehow we got one that looks like magpie? And one that was solid brown from bill to feet and now getting the female grey...
I am trying to look into this myself. Of course this original thread is quite old now. Did you have any luck? Times have changed significantly since then. I’ve found these apple tags and waterproof holders. People use them for their cats and dogs, but I’m most sure about birds.
Our call ducks...
Hello, Need some advice… this little guys belly didn’t heal properly and he’s starting to act off as of today. He/She is a week old. I noticed at hatch it wasn’t looking perfect, but he’s been doing well right up until now. He’s looking slightly lethargic, and his belly looks like it’s starting...
Ahh I feel relieved by your response! They haven’t molted since winter and have this really light white tone that they normally don’t have. So makes sense! They just turned one not long ago, so also haven’t had their second winter.
Hello, my khaki Campbell hens feathers are not looking ok. Is this wet feather or just damage? There has been some Drake chasing happening on and off by other “groups”. Everyone is “twitterpated” right now 🤦🏻♀️ lol. If it is… I can’t figure out the cause as we have a natural pond and a small...
So I have a couple broody silkies who have been hatching eggs, plus I tucked a couple incubated chicks under them. My question…. There is a couple ducks in the mix and I’m struggling with what the best thing to do for food is? I can’t use medicated chick feed because of the ducklings, so I used...
This little guy has had this since he was a hatchling and I’m lost as to what to do for him. He seems healthy and active like the rest, but has this super big belly that looks like a testicle 🫣🤦🏻♀️ I worry it will pop or something 😳 Either way it cannot be healthy.
Thank you so much! Now I don’t have to wait to sex the several chicks I have ☺️ This will be useful in the future as well. I also found an article/post on here that is very thorough about sex links. Best information this far in my search!
I do have polysporin, that’s our go to for everything human lol. I will check for some of the other suggestions as well. I noticed Bactracin on Amazon, so maybe I’ll get that as well. Thank you both! ☺️
