    Ayam Cemani

    She was 1 of a bunch of "extra" chicks in an order that I picked up from Old Orchard Farm. When I asked him several weeks later what other breeds the extra chicks could be, he asked me to check to see if any were all black as he could have mistakenly added some Cemani. I didn't order the...

    Ayam Cemani

    There are parts of her skin that has black pigment, kind of like her feet. Do you think it is an Cemani? Originally when she was little there was no dark parts of her feet. The breeder was worried that he sent me a Cemani so I checked and nothing looked dark. But she is changing. I don't want...

    Ayam Cemani

    I need some advice. I believe I have a Ayam Cemani pullet. I was given a bunch of black chicks as extras from a breeder that does have the Cemani breed. I don't think it is a good quality Cemani as she is not all black. Maybe she isn't a Cemani at all. But I have pictures and she is different...

    Fermenting Feed for Meat Birds

    I''m sure this was posted somewhere but I can't find it. What do you do when the weather is cold? I have been fermenting since summer and would like to continue through the winter. Is warmth necessary?

    Need emergency DIY incubator - help please?

    It's pretty obvious, it moves like a heart beat. very short quick movements. I did have one once really move a lot like it kicked or something. If it is still there is no heartbeat.

    Need emergency DIY incubator - help please?

    You can check to see if they are still alive by putting them 1 at a time in a glass of very warm water. 100 degrees. Place carefully and the egg will float and if there is a heart beat there will be movement with the heartbeat. If so take out right away and dry off and put back under heat. If...

    Has anyone used Oxine as a Wound cleaner?

    He's still with us. Still tubing him with fluids and food. Swelling around the hole has gone down but the entire neck is at least double the size. If you support him he can stand on his own. Just need to hold the head up. Color is good, bright eyes.

    Has anyone used Oxine as a Wound cleaner?

    Bleeding hasn't been a problem, swelling and pain are the problems. We found some wound cleaner, saline solution and flushed everything out. After further inspection of his back he really has minor injuries there. His neck has a hole a little bigger then a quarter in it. Last night we could see...

    Has anyone used Oxine as a Wound cleaner?

    Treating a rooster with tremendous wounds, neck, and back from a fox. He has survived the night and so we want to give him a chance. The hole in his neck is so deep that you can see the spine. Punctures everywhere on this poor guy. But he seems to have a will to live. We hydrated him last night...
