    I knew that the ones that you stick through the wing existed. But i wondered why stick it through if it's way easier to just put them around the base of the wings.

    Marking wings with zip ties

    I have a question about marking the wings. Would it be possible to use zip ties to mark the wings? I know that zip ties are used on the legs to mark chicks. I was wondering if it is possible to do the same with the wings? I've read about marking chicks, but i didn't find anything about bands...

    I do train my bantam silkie too. I started with a clicker but i'm not fast enough so now i train her without. Training a chicken is like training a dog. They learn fast and they can do a lot of tricks. For treats you can use everything as long as they like it very much. I use dried and live...

    Setting Today (03-02-2012)

    I have four out of the 15 i orderd, the others died. And 1 out of 13 of my own pullet eggs. I think that the problem was that the humiditie droped overnight when they where due and they got sealed in. I know now how to fix it so i hope the ducklings will be able to hatch next week. And after...
