    How to tell if a pullet is Wheaten or Blue Wheaten Ameraucana?

    Morning all! I have been scouring the web for photos or descriptions to tell the difference in females but I am only finding information on cockerals and that is easy enough. Might someone be able to point out to me how to tell if an Ameraucana pullet is Wheaten or Blue Wheaten?

    Annoying Nigerian Dwarf Goats-

    I have had NDs for a long time and some are more vocal and annoying than others but I would suggest two changes that might help. First, you have some feeding issues. Do not feed goats anything with molasses in it. It is very high in sulfur which can lead to problems such as polioencephalitis...

    Mean Kittens Bloodied my Hen :(

    In nearly every state, if an animal, regardless of type, is on your property and is causing your livestock distress or harm, it is legal to kill it, pet or not. If your trap works, I'd dump them at the pound and let them deal with it. No one has the right to allow their animals to be on your...

    Year Old Chicken Stopped Walking! Please Help!

    I had a younger hen have something like that happen and, crude as it may sound, we believe she had some tendon strain from the rooster. After about a week or so of us babying her, she was back to walking, though gingerly and today she is 100% fine. We moved her to a separate coop while she...

    Driver hit chicken, wants us to pay for new bumper

    I just this week had three estimates to repair my plastic bumper which is cracked and scratched from a company hitting it with a trailer---all three companies said they CAN repair it and it is going to cost $300. Sounds like a scam to me too and I wouldn't be paying a cent without evidence from...

    Your thoughts on buyers

    I have had a few sketchy ones reply and if they don't sound right in their first inquiry, I don't even respond (or I have set up an email account to use just for those ones in case they start repeatedly sending me things or hack my account---I'll just close that email account then).

    Opposing humidity instructions-not sure which to follow?

    Never considered that. When were playing with it prior to setting, we experimented a bit over a weeks time with water/no water, one plug in/no plugs/both plugs. Does it make it harder to keep the temp and humidity stable without the plugs? Our air is very dry right now. I suppose I could add...

    Opposing humidity instructions-not sure which to follow?

    Just an update. I am liking this incubator. The temp is at a very stable 99.5 and the humidity is staying right around 40% without much help. When it dipped under 35%, I took out one of my coffee stirrer straw (the really skinny ones), a mug of warm, clean water and drew some water into the...

    I will tell you that we did continuous feed and we lost so many to heart failure and I will not do it again.

    Opposing humidity instructions-not sure which to follow?

    The incubator is in a bedroom, though there is an attached bathroom so the shower and such might add moisture to the air in that room. Which is more accurate though for ideal humidity-the instruction manual's 55-60% or the 38-42% I keep seeing mentioned other places?

    Opposing humidity instructions-not sure which to follow?

    We are incubating for the first time and have been playing with the temp and humidity in our new Farm Innovator circulated air incubator. We have them temp good, but removed ALL water frm the reseviors (THE DIRECTIONS CALLED FOR ADDING WATER) because the humidty on the dial read 70%. It is now...
