Idk about them tbh. Lot of this stuff is ridiculous sounding or made up and I only say that because first his wife was sick and then there was a mink and then raccoons and oppossums and I'm not saying all of this totally isn't plausible however even before all that there were issues with...
I do certainly understand that in financial care that they need to be taken care of and that being rid of them is responsible. But getting an animal that you will be too busy to take care of is not okay. Simply don't get the animal. If you want to be a mother and you know that will take up all...
I think you missed my point. You rescued those animals. From people who got them and threw them away when they were done. And obviously you can't account death into account because accidents happen, you don't know when you're going to die, but you take them in because you're giving them a life...
Yes, they should only buy a horse with that level of commitment. You shouldn't get an animal you can't guarantee to care for its whole life. It's like dumping a dog at the shelter once it stops being a puppy. I think it's sad how many people don't understand that commitment and dump the animal...
Thanks! I'll keep y'all posted once I get a nice roo and start breeding pretty babies. Probably won't be for a year or so because I've got to build a new pen and get a better set up before breeding anymore birds, lol, chicken math is real.
Wow, thanks for all the info! And I'm not breeding for a pure show line Sumatra or anything in my flock, I was just interested in pursuing her unique eyes as a little side project and maybe getting her recognized because in my opinion she's one of the prettiest I've seen.
Thank you for all your replies! And yes, that is what I was concerned about, regarding the leakage and whether it would be enough to warrant that. I will upload pictures of her soon!
Hi guys! So i recently (like a year ago haha) picked up some Black Sumatra chicks, and one of them has these really bright and golden piercing eyes. I know they're supposed to have pure black eyes, but she is absolutely gorgeous! I would love to breed a full set of these beauties as a little...
As far as i know they are birds they bred to specifically be white. I'm pretty sure they breed true because to breed an entire line of white to specifically sell I would assume they would need to breed true (or true at least 75% of the time). Best of luck!
Let me know where you order catalogs from! I love catalogs.
I think it depends on the bird itself to be quite honest. Some of my first birds were 3yr olds, and now I have 60 birds because my one was the best bird ever. Followed me around, learned tricks, always seemed to know what I was asking...
