    Mille Fleur D’Uccle pair question

    Thanks so much for the advice! I’ve had chickens for about 10 years, but I’m just now trying to make a small business out of it by selling eggs and chickens.

    That’s a great idea! I know things can vary depending on location and stuff.

    Mille Fleur D’Uccle pair question

    Hello! I just wondered what you would charge for a pair. I have 8 male and 8 female and I need to get rid of some boys! I thought it might be easier if I sell some as a m/f pair rather than trying to sell just roos. They are almost 4 months old. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

    Under my quail pens where the poop lands are hatching some type of meal worm looking things, anyone know what they are?

    I know this is an older post, but I sure wish I knew this last fall! I was going through my worm composting bin and cleaning up any yuck before I moved it inside for the winter. I found a ton of those in the bin. I would’ve kept them for the chickens!!

    What do you use for housing?

    Thanks! I’ll check out the YouTube channel. I think I’ve seen it before. I don't know why I’m so caught up with egg rollouts. I think it would be easier and keep the Jumpy McJumpersons calmer haha!

    What do you use for housing?

    Hello! I’m new to quail and wanted to get opinions on what type of cage you use. I currently have 6 coturnix that are almost 4 weeks old and have 25 more eggs coming in a few weeks. I currently have them in a large guinea pig style cage which is great but it won’t hold many more comfortably...

    A fun question on naming your chickens.

    Oh this has been a fun thread to read and I figured out 2 names for chicks that weren’t named yet! (Stormy and Ash) I usually name mine by personality, a look that sets her/him apart or a group if I can think of one that fits like Jack, Janet and Chrissy. I’ve had Laverne and Shirley and Bonnie...

    Colored egg layers

    Hey! I bought 10 “assorted colored egg layers” from Hoovers hatchery. They are all happy and healthy at 3 weeks old. There seem to be maybe 4 or 5 different patterns and I’d love some help identifying the breeds if you can help. I’m sorry the picture isn’t great. I had just wrangled them into my...

    Wry neck by trauma 2 months later?

    No she can’t walk. Her legs and feet have gotten stronger over this time, but she can’t hold herself up. Thanks for your reply. I was kind of thinking of the same thing. I’ll continue the vitamins and see what happens.

    Wry neck by trauma 2 months later?

    So at the beginning of June, my little bantam (unknown breed) was attacked by her coop mates, protecting her baby I believe. I found her in the morning and brought her and baby inside. The whole back of her head and neck was injured, no skin and raw. I cleaned her up and treated her wounds and...

    Hurricane Preparation

    Thanks for your post! I’m in Winston Salem so my main concern is my yard flooding. I have 6 chickens in a coop where they can roost and 2 ducks that I think will be ok. I’m thinking of bringing my 5 sizzles into the garage because their temporary area (that is more permanent at this time due to...
