    To buy, or not to buy - The story of the unknown GQF 1266.

    We were going to go ahead and give it a try but the seller backed out. Probably best since there is a bird ban in Oklahoma due to HPAI. We were hatching 8 dozen weekly and supplying to a local store. But now we can't sell any to a public storefront. We can still do private sales but it is...

    To buy, or not to buy - The story of the unknown GQF 1266.

    My wife and I have the opportunity to get a used (dunno for how long) GQF 1266 cabinet incubator. The seller is asking $350 and I don't have any idea if that is worth it or not.

    We lost our first chicken.

    From what the previous owners told us, they were 2 years old. We live in Oklahoma. Aside from the swollen wattle, I haven't noticed anything else. After I take our little one in to daycare I am going to look over the carcass and see if there was anything I missed as far as lesions, marks, etc.

    We lost our first chicken.

    We have had our flock for 2 months (inherited it from the previous landowners when we moved). Our Buff Orpington (buffy) had been a model of health. About a week ago we noticed one of her wattles was swollen and had a dark red/purplish spot on it. We got some silver ointment to put on it and it...

    Just inherited a flock

    Hello BYC! My wife and I just moved out to the country (thank goodness!!!) and we inherited a small flock of chickens (was 5, now 4...). We are interested in growing our flock and just wanted to introduce ourselves and we look forward to learning and growing our flock.
