    I have one related pair. I'd be interested in getting some eggs to broaden the gene pool. I live in Lexington Kentucky. Can anyone help me? Thanks!

    I'm being given a Cream Legbar Roo with severe Frostbite.. What do I do?

    Forgot that I'd replied before. The bag balm or just Vaseline sounds good, especially when the tips start drying up and may shed dead tissue. Again, mine did fine. I kept one hen he came with to keep him warm and content. Good for stress level. They are at a friend's house in case something...

    I might provide an antibiotic to ward off secondary infections. I used Tylan, 1 cc per day for 1 week, injected into the breast muscle. Keep out of drafts. Provide supplemental heat, a 100 watt bulb should do, 24/7. I bought one that had a bad cold and frostbite from a freak cold spell...

    Yes, by spring he should be fine.

    ISO Texas Pioneer Pigeons

    Would like to get a pair or preferably two to start raising auto-sexing pigeons for sale and for meat. Would be open to auto-sexing Kings or any other meat pigeon breed that is auto-sexing. I live in Lexington Kentucky and am willing to pay for shipping.

    Help sex my ambiguous Cream Legbar day-old

    Yes, don't breed it. Some strains of Cream Legbar have lost their autosexing ability due to breeding birds like this. If you sell or give it away, tell the folks it's a mixed laying hen to be sure it's out of the C. Legbar gene pool. Mixed cockerel if male.
