BChicky was so happy with the young chicks ... and being contained was a safe haven for her.. When I was putting her out in the dog fence/ run & dog crate she was ok, but still stayed in the crate most of the time. with winter coming I can set up a light . A lady that works at my local...
It's been a while since I have been on... The end of August I got / won 6 8 wk old chicks ( about ) I put them in with BChicky & set up a fence. she was so happy. had her boundery, new her space & no one beat on her. The young chick wanted to expand their turf. she was lost, she was chased &...
I just heard a neighbor was given 12. a friend of hers ordered 24 by mistake ( she was having some wine at the time ) So this is the 1st time I heard of the breed/ mix. Last yr was the 1st time I heard of Tetra tints.
Yea Found this thread / POST AGAIN .. I knew I read this before, just had to re-read thru them. so now I know my 2 geese are to young to have their african features yet. . TY
Yhis is my 1st time having geese ( when I was a young teen we had 1 goose ) I got the African, as I liked their different 'look' . I will say, they are very noisy. and when the 8 ducks chime in. Holy moly. Nothing like letting the predators know they are around
I will get pictures later this morn. I don't know which hatchery Agway here deals with. Last yr I was suppose to get 6 crested Indian runner ducks. Got white crested Pekins. This yr I was suppose to get regular Indian runners & got to Pekins. So I am doubting that my geese are African.
I am searching thru this tread because I got (supposedly ) 2 African geese via my local Agway. I was wondering when they got their African geese features . I am thinking I did not get Africans. As I ordered a few Indian runner ducks & got Pekings. I got them on June 13th this yr ( 2014 )
My Maran cross hen we found 2 wks ago under some brush , she looked like she just laid down & died, she was 1 1/2 old. yesterday morn I found my 5 yr old Blk sex link under the roost in the coop she just started to go into ( not her usual coop ) . she had been quite & a bit slow the last 2 day...
What I could possibly do is get the young 5 hens & Roo that are in the smallest coop moved over to one of the larger ones ( not always easy unless the coop is shut up , had to do that when I had a major predator attack , 3 hens left in a coop ) I could move my blind chicken in there with 3...
Sorry not to get back sooner... Been busy with chicken care, cleaning & maintaning their yard & coops.I will get a picture . I got her May 23rd there about from our local Agway in Haverhill, NH. she/ her knows my voice and will find me. she does very well considering, the baby chicks / her...
Hi every one... I recently discovered 1 of my Amerucana pullets I got the end of May is blind. I did not know that when I cared for the 12 when I had them inside. Not even after I put them out in their coop. I kept their area fenced off until older & the big birds got used to having them around...
