    A guide to Vaccination

    I'm a new, small poultry farm and have been hatching chicks for not too long. Every once in a while I have someone asking me if I vaccinate my chicks. A while ago I did some research and found out that you can only buy vaccines in 1,000 doses and once you open the bottle, you have to use it...

    Feed Comparison Chart - Need Opinion

    I use Home Grown No-Soy No-Corn feed for my chickens. I decided to check other brands but need the "chicken experts' opinion" on this one... Can you please tell me which one is the best one (and why, so I can learn too ) when comparing the labels? Thank you!

    The Olive-Egger thread!

    WOW! I'm speechless!! That's such a great explanation!! I was about to say that all I was trying to do with my chart was to combine all different charts in one, and add the f1 over f1 and f2 and all their possibilitie s. And for that I asked the input of the big brains here at BYC. But I had...

    The Olive-Egger thread!

    Thanks for the explanation and correction. I had the redish egg on the bottom based on the explanation given on the first post I quoted: "...you're going to get anything and everything from normal olive green to normal dark reddish brown to anything else, including blue, mint green, green/brown...

    The Olive-Egger thread!

    Got it! Ok, so I'll remove the speckled eggs... You're right, people might get confused and the idea is to show the possible colors themselves, and not if they are speckled or not. Stay tuned, final chart coming very soon! Once again, thanks for your help...

    The Olive-Egger thread!

    THANKS!!! So all I need to do is to include a white egg? How about white "speckled" (if there is such a thing like that...)?

    WTB: 2 Blue Wheaten Ameraucana Roosters

    Wanted 2 Blue Wheaten Ameraucana Roosters. They must be the REAL deal, and hatched from a robin blue egg. They can be between 4 and 18 months (it actually could be older, but young ones are preferable). Will pay for them. Thank you!

    Would you still happen to have the roos? If yes, what egg color did they come from, and do you have their pictures? Thanks!

    Wheaten/Blue Wheaten baby chicks marks

    Let's see if someone can help me. I've had Blue Wheaten, Wheaten and Blue Splash Wheaten Ameraucanas for 1 year. I hatched many chicks and they were always all yellow. I recently acquired 2 new blue Wheaten roosters and for the first time I'm getting chipmunk marks on my baby chicks. I'm...

    Hens not Laying (stress related) - Need Advice...

    Thanks for your reply. I think I said everything I did... Gave them a bigger and better place, but got more hens. They are part of my breeding program, and my orders are all pilling up! Today I'll buy them Flock Block. They love it and I hope they will take my bribe as a comfort food! :) I'm...

    Hens not Laying (stress related) - Need Advice...

    I made some major changes in the last 2 months: expanded some pens, added 2 more, got bigger coops, replaced some older hens with younger ones, and replaced some roosters. I know chickens are creatures of habits and don't do well with changes and stress. In one pen, they are not molting, but...

    How To Sex A Chicken - Wisdom From An Old Timer

    Tried the "leg method", or however it is called. The one that started this thread: holding them by the neck. They were all relaxed, none of them held their legs up! Not falling for this one ever again...
