    A Bielefelder Thread !

    It is not the sex that develops, but rather the eggs that contain male or female. It is very near impossible to have a 100% hatch rate so the temperature simply allows for more of the female eggs to develop, or more of the male eggs to develop. Again, my own personal experiences proved that...

    A Bielefelder Thread !

    Where are you located? I'm not shipping live animals currently, but have birds available for pick up. Right now I am actually just selling a breeding trio. I have two separate trios (1 rooster, 2 hens), but am becoming limited on space so I'm moving towards having only one trio for each breed.

    Higher incubator temperature. I see hatched two sets of eggs now. My first, I had no idea about the temperature thing and read that worth a still air incubator the temperature needed to be 101.5 Out of 15 chicks, only 3 were female. Then I read up on the temperature thing how more males tend...

    Olandsk Dwarf Chickens

    I appreciate the link, but I found that quite some time ago. Unfortunately none of the sources they list carry these chickens anymore :(

    Olandsk Dwarf Chickens

    Oh wow. I had only seen that they discontinued them to make room for other breeds. I'd be very happy if they brought them back.

    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    Still getting an egg a day from my new layer. Amazing hen! (I didn't think they could lay every day for two weeks straight without a day off). One of my marans squatted when I pet her yesterday so I might very well get a dark brown egg before spring after all :)

    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    I'm amazed. The local farm that sells eggs is currently only selling dairy. They have 15 acres and a BUNCH of chickens. But the chickens aren't laying for the season. The sign said "seasonal lay-off". Most are molting. I Just find that insane how you go from sooooooo many to zip! My hen...

    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    My little girl is a rock star! Being new to laying and giving me two her first day and laying another the next morning, I thought for sure she'd need a day or so break, but nope. Still gave me another one :) The face of one of my cuckoo marans is getting really red now so I'm thinking she...

    Palm Beach County FL - where can we legally keep our chickens?

    Hello. In May my current lease will expire and I'll be moving. I currently live in eastern lake worth where I'm technically not suppose to have chickens, but I have awesome neighbors so no problems as of yet. I know there are undercover chicken owners all over the city and surrounding area...

    Can I Keep My Bantam Ameraucana?

    Yes the single chicken problem is why I'm thinking of keeping her with the chicks even after the quarantine period is over until the chicks are her same size. That way I can introduce a group of 6 same size birds to my three larger hens and even though the rest will continue growing, hopefully...

    Can I Keep My Bantam Ameraucana?

    So back in mid June, I hatched 12 eggs and ended up with only 3 hens in the whole bunch. One just started laying yesterday and they are all three large birds. I recently found a feed store around 45 minutes from me that sells sexed baby chicks. 95% should be female. I like those odds much...

    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    I have two cuckoo marans pullets that I don't think are laying yet; their and wattles are still small and pink. I have a third hen (mystery bird... we think ameraucana wyandotte mix. Maybe some delaware) who finally layed today. I checked my coop thoroughly yesterday and there was nothing...
