    Official BYC Poll: What Are You Doing to Protect Your Flock From Bird Flu (H5N1) Infection?

    1) The percentages on the vote doesn't make any sense? 2) The "current outbreak" must only be in the USA because all of us in the rest of the world are scratching our heads. Maybe say this is the title and description. Alternatively call the site BYCUSA or realise that the world doesn't end at...

    Topic of the Week - Raising Chicks

    G'day mates. I know this is a hatching video but I've deleted all the photos off my phone. At the 1:17 mark there is some photos and a brief description of our outdoor brooder. It's autumn here now and night time temps fall to about 6 degrees Celsius but the chicks are fine. Being outdoors...

    Australorp Gender help!

    G'day mates. I've read all the replies and it's all very sound theory. What makes me wonder if it's correct though, is that the poster doesn't know how old they are ("three to four weeks" ) so probably not if they're related or the same age as each other. Both chicks have wattles. Both...

    G'day mate. Too small to eat so why bother now? The older they get the easier it is to tell and by that time they'll be big enough for you to eat the roo. I have seven that hatched yesterday so definitely no way to tell yet. 😂

    Any Home Bakers Here?

    Thanks. I've come to the conclusion that with the exception of weighing ingredients, I'm much better at winging it than following instructions. Whenever I follow any instructions my bread comes out looking and tasting like a rock. I do it by feel now and this is the result without fail. 😂

    Selling eggs- people not paying for eggs

    G'day and thanks for posting. It sucks having dishonest neighbours but I feel that if someone can't afford the four or five dollars for eggs, then they have a problem and I don't feel too bad helping them out with some eggs. I would keep putting them out and let karma sort it out if they're...

    2 Muskovey females on 1 nest

    Not ducks but I had a second Wyandotte hen join the first on the nest 18 days in (was both their eggs to start off with but one did 21 days and the other three!). The hatched three chicks of which two died and now they're very nicely sharing parental duties to the one chick. No fighting. It's...
