I was wondering if anyone could help me with the coloring of my sebastopol goslings? I have three sebastopol geese, a white gander, a white goose and a grey goose. They have hatched out 8 goslings so far and I plan on selling them but I don't want to label them as being a color they aren't and...
That's interesting. I live in southern Arizona and summers here get really hot. I wonder if they could be burns from the hot ground? Especially since all they had at their previous home was dirt and rocks.
I reached out to a sebastopol geese breeder out here and this is what she said..
"It's...
That's a good idea, I'll do that. When I bought them last night (I bought 3 from the same lady) she didn't say anything about it. They were already in a kennel of hers ready to go when I got there and we just transferred them over to mine and I took them home. It wasnt until I got home and let...
I just brought this goose home and noticed she was walking weird. It looked like she had poop stuck to the bottom of her foot but nope, it's whatever this is. How can I help her?
Hey guys! I'm hoping someone can help me out. I bought these chicks a couple weeks ago and they were supposed to be Barred Rock but obviously that's not the case. Anyone have any idea what breed these are? Thanks!
Hello and thank you for your response. I removed the pepper from their water and replaced it with the nutri drench. They are on the Purina medicated game bird starter feed. They seem to be perfectly fine now. I think the heat was just way to much for them so I've brought them inside the last...
We just got 2 White Holland turkey poults on Saturday. They are now 9 days old. I've been keeping them outside in a small pen out of the sun. Today it reached 113 degrees and when i went to check on them this evening one of them threw up as soon as i picked it up. They're both walking around...
My 3 year old daughter tried to pick up the white rooster and he started kicking like crazy! I ran up and grabbed him from her and he scratched my arm up. Unfortunately he's going to have to go soon.
Hello,
My name is Rachel and I'm new to raising chickens. My husband's friend has a large backyard flock and gave us 6 of their baby chicks back in May. Fast forward to now and I'm pretty sure 3 of those 6 are roosters. I have 3 kiddos, 2 dogs and just added 2 baby turkeys to the homestead. I...
Thanks! Though I'm sad the red one is a cockerel. He's my favorite one! He's super sweet, always comes right up to me and my kiddos and always lets my 3 year old hold him. I heard it's not a good idea to have a rooster if you have small children and that you need at least 10-12 hens per rooster...
I'm new to raising chickens and I'm wondering if these are roosters or hens? They were hatched around May 5th so they are about 14 weeks old. I'm not sure what kind they are but we got 6 from someone's backyard flock and I'm pretty sure we have 3 roosters out of the 6 we picked out. Here's a...
