    Pheonix Rooster tail care

    Pheonix Chicken Information

    Thank you! That seems to be the general consensus, that they are a bit skittish but very sweet. That's good to know.

    Pheonix Chicken Information

    Hi Everyone! I am hoping that someone out there is able to tell me a little bit about their experience with Phoenix chickens. I made an order from McMurray hatchery (pleased with the quality so far!) and did not order Phoenix chickens but had to have a substitute because they were out of...

    Help! Hatched chick not thriving w/ wound on belly!

    I wonder if there was an issue with the belly button absorbing the rest of the egg fluid? I have no idea! Keep her wrapped up at least it looks like her innards are coming out.

    We all want to know why the chicken crossed the road. Right?

Or if you need a little help getting started choose a historical person and come up with an answer...

    Hatcheries/breeders around Iowa?

    I did not catch his name but most likely he is not well known. I just mean he doesn't use 4H as an excuse to do a lousy job. He judges the bird for how it is and not the age of the exhibitor or the experience level. In a sense, its hard to explain:)

    Hatcheries/breeders around Iowa?

    I've heard good things about Uncle Bills but never found a good time to order from them as I always just seem to miss their silkies. Thoughts?

    Hatcheries/breeders around Iowa?

    Well I am interested in finding show quality birds because I have been showing for a few years now in 4H and I have experienced a quality judge at our county and I know that he comes looking for very good birds. There is also quite a few good competitors at our county so poultry has been stepped...
