    ISO - Hatchable Turken Eggs

    We have no turkens left. A neighbors dog got them last spring and only have two hens, one an Easter Egger and another a golden comet. Neither of which have gone broody- ever. We have an incubator and brooder that we used two years ago when we first hatched our turkens.

    ISO - Hatchable Turken Eggs

    Yes! As long as they're hatchable(fertilized) and Turkens. 😊 Most places are wanting $50+ for a dozen Turken eggs. We are wanting to add to our flock this year and turkens have always been the friendliest. If close enough, we can pick up.

    10 week old Roo with Goopy Eye

    My Roo came to me this morning with a pretty goopy and dirty eye. I believe that's all dirt. Could it just be irritation? Only that eye is like that. Any suggestions on how to flush it out if he just has dirt in his eye? Any advice is appreciated! Also, he was blinking mid photo, he is able to...

    Turken with Sour Crop?

    I need some advice and opinions. My favorite baby chick(will be 2 weeks old on Tuesday), has a weird feeling crop. It is a Naked Neck(Turken) and the skin is very loose in that spot and soft. Is that normal for Naked Necks, or does it have a sour crop? It also is making weird ticking noises...

    Ready for the great outdoors?

    UPDATE: We got the chicks, they spent yesterday outdoors in the run by themselves. The older chickens were let out to free roam. They did pretty well and huddled together once it got a bit chilly. I put them back into a cage under the heat lamp. Today it's pretty chilly AND raining. I didn't let...

    Ready for the great outdoors?

    We are getting some chick about 5 to 6 weeks old and were wondering if they were ready to be put outside in their own coop? The weather is rainy and windy, but temp is around low 30s at night. Is it too cold for them?
