    Turkeys in their new home

    Very nice! How many are you keeping in the coop/run? We're deciding how many to keep (#16) in a similar sized pen.

    UPDATE-- New Poults; Some Died. Help! My turkey chicks are dying!

    thanks for the post. We also received 20 rare heritage turkeys from a reputable source on wed. and 3 have died so far. We're still in the percentages of survival, but was not happy that 3 died in 4 days. Let's hope that there is no more problems for you, sorry to hear this.

    Baby chick, crooked neck, question?

    thanks, so if electrolytes don't work, it's best to cull? I'm pretty sure gatorade isn't the solution ;)

    Baby chick, crooked neck, question?

    Hi all, We have a baby chick that has a crooked neck and isn't growing as well as the others hatchlings. Photo shows the problem. Does anyone know what this is? Is there a solution?

    Roosters, hen pecked back, question

    Hi all, We're considering adding a rooster to our small flock, but there is an aesthetic question: how or can we avoid that back/tail bare spot, that we see at big flocks with multiple roosters!? Is this just an unavoidable side effect of a rooster mating?

    10++ Heritage Black Australorp Hatching Eggs

    Off topic...(and those birds look great!)...we purchased a couple of Black Austr. from a feed store. They are developing white ears... Is this a completely ruined breed now? Might bid on these eggs
