    Ringneck Pheasant info page *warning lots of PICS*

    Can anyone help me figure out what is going on with my CRN hen? Two weeks ago I moved them into a new enclosure (after something killed the other four) that is way more secure (read; Fort Knox for Pheasant) . Yesterday I noticed she seems to sleep a lot, fluffs up her feathers even on the...

    I have a speckled sussex rooster to get rid of. He's about a year old. My youngest son is terrified of him because he chases my son relentlessly. Im in south eastern PA area.

    Barred Rocks!!

    I have three barred rock pullets that are the same age (about three or four weeks old). Two are feathering in normally, one is very delayed and even her down is strange in texture and length. Anyone have any ideas? First pic is normal chick. Second is delayed.

    Unfortunately not one egg hatched. I do have a few chicks ordered to come in about two weeks. I really wanted to hatch eggs though. I'm planning to order more chicks in a few weeks, want to stagger them a bit so I dont have to wait till October again with no eggs.

    We're at Day 12 of our incubation and I'm still not sure if we're having chicks or stinky eggs? I don't smell any bad ones, yet. Should I be smelling something by now if there is a bad one? I did take out two that I'm sure are bad. The contents seem to be all mixed together and swirly, with...

    They are mostly speckled sussex. The larger, darker brown ones are from my barred rock. The large light brown are from the easter egger.

    Thank you. We also lost a barred rock hen that was laying some very nice large eggs. I have a few of those here too and will try hatchng those as well.

    Thanks. Its hard going out to care for the remaining birds and only seeing three. Hopefully the eggs we have left will produce a new flock. Fingers crossed.

    Are eggs that have been sitting on our counter for about a week okay to hatch? House temperature is 70-72 during the day and 65-68 at night.

    I am so upset! One of our dogs mnaged to escape a six foot tall chain link enclosure, jump the chicken fence and kill all of my sussex hens and my barred rock hen. The only ones to survive were my easter egger hen, the sussex roo, and the easter egger roo. Now we start all over again in a few...
