    Keep a clean coop

    Thank you for the great idea of 'Washed Plaster Sand', this really helps me, as I've been wondering how to manage the wetter climate. I've used "Mainely Mulch" to throw down in their run to help dry it up and not be so wet, but I have to rake it out and dump it after three days or so, it gets...

    What breed is the quietest roo?

    Hi there! I have silkies and their crow is more like a rooster with a sore throat--they do crow, but it doesn't seem to carry as far as the larger roo's. Here's an idea though, for people in urban situations and those with close neighbors-- check out the 'no crow' collar. It might be an...

    Medicating new peachick-coccidiosis?

    Hi Kathy, So, should I stop with the oxytet? With us humans, we're supposed to take the full course, 14 days. Would this mess up the baby, or am I messing up the chick with the oxytet already?? Yikes!! Thanks for any info! Heidi

    Medicating new peachick-coccidiosis?

    Hi again! Thank you for the replies. I will take stool to the vet first of the week just to see. I get so confused! I am new to the peafowl and the internet can be dangerous with all the different opinions... Somewhere I read that the 'save a chick' electrolyte vitamin solution is good to...

    Medicating new peachick-coccidiosis?

    Hi all! Well I got one peachick out of the 4 eggs, so far. S/he is 5 days old. I'm letting mama peahen do her mama thing, so the peachick follows her everywhere, she is eating mash, bugs, fresh vegetables, hard boiled egg. I'm letting nature take it's course here. I am giving in all their...

    How to move chickens to new coop?

    Hi all! I have had a new coop built for my 5 silkies. I need to move them over to it, but am getting conflicting advice. I've heard I should move the chickens at night, put them in the new coop and let them stay in it for 3 days so they get used to that being their new home. Is that true...

    Day 27

    I know, I know. I haven't ever had peahen eggs before, but I have had parrots... I know they are not the same, so I let her sit on them so she wouldn't keep laying clutches which could deplete her calcium levels (even though she has access to calcium). I very well might let them hatch and...

    Day 27

    Hi all! OK, today is day 27. My peahen has been a good little incubating mommy, but I do not want to have peachicks. Should I just remove the eggs (4) completely when she is off the nest tomorrow? I left the eggs so she could do her peahen mommy nest thing. The male is in the same big...
