Hi all - I haven't been online here in a few years, and am hoping to find other Jacksonville, FL (or inland a little) area chicken peeps, especially those with seramas or very small bantams. I have an aging flock, and have an almost completely blind serama hen who just lost her 13 year old...

Teenage/pullet stinkeye!

Definitely looks better! Thank you!

I will try these foods tomorrow. Thanks again!

We are in the same boat - we have chickens and heritage turkeys as pets and were given a 1+ year old very big BBB tom. I have picked him up and would guess 35+ibs. He walks, slowly, but was kept in a small pen and is pretty beat up from laying on the ground. He's a sweetie and we're hoping to...

I wanted to share this .pdf of the IncuView instruction manual that I got from the company. For some reason these aren't available on the Incubator Warehouse website or Facebook page.
