    Guinea x Ring-neck pheasant Hybrid

    I have named it "Gizmo" 😂 I had to clip one of its wings. Its a flight bird for sure! And it wasn't happy about being out in the cold air for pictures. I believe my white pied guinea to be the father, as it lookes just like my pied guinea keets, but with obvious pheasant features! So far ive put...

    Guinea x Ring-neck pheasant Hybrid

    One of the two hatched!! I had to assist, it pipped 2 days ago and dried membrane was keeping it from fully emerging. Its the cutest thing! Half white, half brown. I put it back in to dry off and headed out to work. As soon as i get home I'll get a picture and upload it! :celebrate

    Buying incubator for duck eggs

    Well at tractor supply styrofoam incubator is 50 bucks and the Turner is 50 bucks so there's your 100. If you're just wanting to have to couple at a time that would probably be your best bet.... Also there's the natureright 360 that turns eggs but that's 150. But I can't stress enough how...

    Buying incubator for duck eggs

    How many duck eggs are you wanting to hatch? If it's a small amount even a little giant or similar styrofoam incubator will work. I've had all types of incubators and it's not really about which one you use, but how you handle the incubation process. Hatching ducks isn't like hatching chickens...

    Ringneck x Guinea hybrid

    They got out the beginning of January. The eggs I collected were just under 2 weeks ago, so there's no chance she's been bred by another pheasant. I finally candled them last night. I only candled 1 batch, but I'll continue to set her eggs in the incubator. How cool would that be?! I've got a...

    Ringneck x Guinea hybrid

I didn't want to get rid of her and she was lonely so I figured pheasants and guineas are both aggressive types of birds so I put her in the...

    Brown/White Chinese offspring sexlink?

    Hello, I have some Chinese geese. I've read that a mix between the brown and white create a sexlink. From what I've read though, I've seen people say female gosling are white, males are dark...and vise versa. I was just wondering if anybody knew exactly what the outcome was of the auto sexing...

    How to hatch Muscovy

    So, here's the deal. Does anybody know any tips/ tricks? Is their humidity lower than other breeds? Ive noticed they live and move up until hatch day, then they die before they start pipping. I could say I've gone through about a hundred eggs and this is what happens every time. I know they...
