Thanks Jean....I appreciate your unbiased advice ....I have been warned about the rabbit "snobs" out there that choose to rant about lionheads ....that's not what I'm looking for, just the question at hand!! There are a few different bucks that I am looking at, but this little guy was...
They are pedigreed lionheads and we will be breeding for hopefully showing and of course adopting out. I hear ya on the inbreeding going on I just don't want to do anything to be a detriment to the little ones
We are new to rabbits. I am looking at purchasing a buck for my doe and would really like to breed the 2...only thing is, they have the same father........yes or no to using them as a breeding pair?
Our guineas have just started laying like crazy and no one is showing any signs of wanting to set yet. I collected these 25 Friday, yesterday and today and I will send whatever else is layed until tomorrow!!
We have Coral Blue, Violet, Lavendar and White. They all free range together and come...
The chicken wouldn't have gapeworm if it hasn't been outside........good luck with your chicken!!
BTW, we keep our chicks inside until they are about a month to 6 weeks and than they go outside!!
Wowzaaaaa!! Everyone arrived all in tact but one......and that's out of 72 people That's a LOT of eggs And yes, the box was a big one!!
Very nice job on packaging and id'ing the eggs. They are going in the bator on Friday!!
Thanks soooo much, and I will be in touch with how it goes...
This may be a silly question, but does the nail grow back? I have a roo that did the same thing, and talk about looking like a massacre in the coop......it still doesn't look like a nail is growing yet.
You're welcome for the help Theron!! And may she continue to get better so you can put her back with her friends There are many different opinions on this board and I have found that some are helpful and others not so much. I think it is unfair that immediately people tell others that they...
Get Tylan 50 injectible and treat her!! There are many on here that will tell you to cull her and the rest of your flock....that's not necessary IMO.
Good luck with her!! She'll get better with the antibiotic.
That was my thought too.....just let her go and see what happens, the little stinker.
And I also agree with hens being broody for longer than 5 weeks. I have a friend that has 2 hens that tag team. One sets on the eggs and hatches them and than another takes over while the first hen sets on...
Wellllllll.........I just went out to tuck everyone in and turn on the heat lamp, and there she is, sitting all nice and pretty on her nest again? So what do you think? Just let em go and see what happens? I could scream...........
She is in a crate all snug and cozy so she can still see eveyone else but be secluded. I only candled her eggs twice, once after a few days and than a few days ago......
It's only 9 degrees here today...I'm sure they're done for Well, I've learned my leason.....give her eggs when she first starts brooding. I didn't really want her to set right now because it is so cold here right now, and she wouldn't quit setting, so I figured she'd see these guys to hatch...
