    Egg gathering question??

    I work nights, and when I got home this morning, there was an egg in one of the boxes. I don't know what time it was laid, but the birds got put up around 7:30 - 8 last night. My son puts them up for me after I go to work, but he apparently didn't check for eggs. I think its my little porcelain...

    Can't decide which to keep & which to cull... Help please

    I have a total of 23 chickens, 16 pullets & 7 roosters. (That's not counting my banties.) I know that is way too many cocks in the henhouse, and I plan on culling some of them. But that is where I am having my problem. Which do I keep/cull?? I ended up with 3 white Leghorn, 2 that I am now...

    My sincerest apologies

    I would like to apologize to anyone that may have been reported by me. I get on here on my phone and it is touch screen. And I guess I have fat fingers. And I have accidentally hit the "report" button when scrolling. I have hit the stop button as quickly as possible. But don't know if it...

    I had asked before about this one but he was still pretty young at the time. His name is Sam and he is definitely a little roo. He was my first to crow. And he is a bantam. Could someone please help me try to identify what breed. Will try to get some more pics (better ones) this afternoon...

    Question about sitting duck

    I have a duck that is a little over a year old now. She has attempted to hatch several clutches of eggs to no avail. My drakes had gotten killed by, I am assuming, coyotes last Nov/Dec. Therefore, eggs aren't fertilized... Unless the wild mallards that frequent the tanks have come into my yard...

    More breed ID help please

    Thank you! That brown & white one, I am pretty sure is a roo. I really think he is going to be a handful... of fun. He's is trying his best to rule the roost! It's too funny watching him cause he is so small.
