    Making a healthier feed

    I've also considered acorns after leaching as another protein source. There's some deer feed that's entirely ground Acorn but I don't think it's been leached. Definitely wouldn't be used as heavily as sweet potato but would definitely be beneficial to some extent. I could also just make a...

    Making a healthier feed

    So I've been considering making feed to sell locally in the far flung future and I just don't understand all the big chemical and additive names. I've done a small amount of research on some replacement foods and I've seen people in Asia making their own feed with plants. Boiled and dehydrated...

    The Sugar Cookie Project

    I'm planning on building some stag pens soon to house the roosters I currently have that I don't want to breed. Just doing 2 for now to house Bruce and possibly Cassandra along with the chicks as a grow out pen. Then 2 more to further house the roosters since there's 5 of the new boys. I'll post...

    Can't believe I haven't posted an update about the chicks. Anyway here they are.

    The Bald Eagle Project

    Was looking into the bald eagle project again and I found this old post. Not sure if this breeding would work or not but I suppose it's worth a try in the future. I just wonder how I could get the choclate color instead of the Buff. I suppose I might have to breed the finished white Buff white...

    Oh yeah I do think I remember seeing some pictures of Malays with the curled feathers.

    Huh, interesting. Do you have pictures of them?

    EE cross with weird hairdew

    Maybe it was the same with mine? I honestly can't remember and I don't think I have pictures of her very far back.

    EE cross with weird hairdew

    Maybe it's with age then. Do you remember how old yours was when she got it? I feel like this might be the first year for my girl to have it. She's like 3 years old now.

    EE cross with weird hairdew

    I was just looking through old photos and found one from November of 2024. She doesn't seem to have the curled feathers at all in these photos but maybe it's just how thick her winter plumage is.🤷‍♀️

    EE cross with weird hairdew

    Yeah I can see it a little bit in some pictures. I wonder if because her feathers are so tight to her body it just emphasizes the curled feathers more. Lots of the birds in the pictures have thicker neck feathering. I'm already busy with a breeding project right now but maybe I can breed her...

    EE cross with weird hairdew

    So my EE cross that I've had for 3 years or so has a weird hairdew. She has the beard and muffs like typical EE's but also the feathers at the sides of the base of her skull curl and slick back like a greasers hairstyle. Her father is a Golden duckwing pheonix x Golden Comet cross and her...

    Abnormal breathing?

    My chicks are a little over a week old now and one of the females is worrying me with her breathing. It's very heavy compared to her siblings. She acts pretty normal but also maybe a bit subdued compared to the others. The last few waterers full I've added some electrolytes but today I added a...
