    silkie sexing

    The odd thing on the first white pic is it lets the boys breed her without a fight and stands and shakes feathers after just like my other hens. I feel its a roo but just odd. I know its not good quality but thought I would hold on to it if it was a her but no way if its a roo.

    silkie sexing

    Hi everyone, I have a few silkies I would like to see everyones opinion on their gender. This is one that was suppose to be a 8 month old hen that hasn't started laying yet. I havn't noticed it crowing either. My issue is I noticed it had a little more comb than I thought it should...

    December Hatch-A-Long 2014

    Well I had to help my 2 that pipped. I couldn't stand it. It was a good thing though since I believe they wouldn't have made it. I think my thermostat in the incubator I hatch in is going and I believe the temp was low, just didn't feel warm enough, which is why my humidity wouldn't stay up...

    I still havn't had a chance to catch up with all the post but from what I have, I see some are having trouble as I am. Really a bummer. I'm so confused right now as to what my problem is. We live in a trailer so its a little harder with the temp fluctuations we have here in florida. I'm...

    Thank you! I sadly didn't get her:( They informed me she had a bare butt, I guess has always had it?? I'm going to try to post the pic. Does you or anyone know what this could be from and if its a mite or something contagious? I really would like her but I am not in a position to treat her...

    Cochin Thread!!!

    Hi everyone!! Well I'm going to be getting a LF buff hen tomorrow!! I was wondering if someone can tell me what color I might get if I hatched eggs from a buff and a blue. I'm sure you shouldn't cross it but that might be the way for now, Of course I don't have a rooster yet but plan on a...

    The best thing I found was the air filter tubing for fish tanks. I find it in the pet section at walmart, very cheap and then you can cut it to the length you want it and tape it down where you need it to be. I then just have a syringe that I use to draw up the water and squirt in the tubing...
