I haven’t seen many individuals offering eggs but Strombergs sells coturnix hatching eggs.

Thanks for posting this! It's good to hear about a non-surgical way to treat bumblefoot. What type of medicated soak are you using (if you don't mind sharing)?

Does anyone have purebred Golden Sebright hatching eggs available? Must be willing to ship to MN. Thanks!

I think that would work. PA to Minnesota shouldn't take more that 2 days...right? Also - I noticed that you have a Melissa Rose listed for this week. I'm Melissa Roslanic - I saw her listed when I first found your posting. Just wanted to point out that we're separate Melissa's. Pay Pal...

Hi CJ, I noticed that you still have openings for eggs to ship this week. Is it too late to put an order in? If not, I'd like the 2 dozen special with no showgirls. Thanks! Melissa

Hi. I can't seem to access the Coop Designs. I'm able to get to the main coop page: https://www.backyardchickens.com/coopdesigns.html but when I click on the coop picture to select a size, the page that loads doesn't have any coops. Is there a problem with the page or is this something I...

I was looking for the pop bottle waterers when I saw th Mini Cup Drinker. Has anyone tried it? I did a BYC search and saw a post from 2009. Someone was trying to order it but there wasn't any info on how it had worked out. They are available in the US from Twin Cities Poultry Supply...

Thanks everyone! I'm beginning to think my incubator is cursed. Every hatch with this one has had this ratio of pullets to cockerels.

Hi Everyone. I've been lurking on this thread trying to learn as much as possible about Dominiques before my first set hatched (thank you!). Now that they are here, could I get your opinion on gender? If I where to only look at the spots on their heads, I would say 1 pullet, 5 cockerels...

How many are you getting per day/week? I had a Black Australorp that laid eggs that color. I'm not disagreeing with anyone about the Marans though....

Is anyone selling Speckled Sussex hatching eggs? I'm looking for a dozen plus...

Ugh! I wish you where in Minnesota. I have 4 that are looking for homes...

I'm wondering if someone can give me an opinion? I have a quad of Seramas that I hatched in February. My rooster, Pepper, has bald spots on his neck (one on each side). He's had them since he feathered out. I thought that they would go away as he matured, but they're still there. The...

Her (his?) poo looks normal to me. Is she eating and drinking normally? What type of food are they eating? Her vent does look larger than average but it doesn't look inflamed (that's good). I've had chicks that look like they're really straining everytime they go. Picture the chick doing...

I put my 3 week old out about 2 weeks ago. They have a heat lamp and a draft-free enclosure.
