I have a 12 week frizzled serama pullet. She is about 7oz. Curious for others who have seramas on their size. Please post the age and current weight of your seramas. Her face is starting to turn a deep red. I also hear that at 4 months they could start laying. Shes so tiny its hard to grasp that...
how long did you wait to keep your frizzle/serama outside and with the rest of the flock? Ours is inside since she is so tiny. Once she is bigger we will put her outside but for now she is in. She is fully feathered but has never been outside. She is very spoiled and treated like a house...
I am located in Sandy OR. I am looking for show quality Frizzled Tolbunt Polish hen. Can do chicks and potential for eggs at the end of the month. Also looking for Isbar hen or eggs towards the end of the month. Would be interested in getting Polish asap as it is for 4h. Willing to drive a...
One of my hens stopped laying in the nesting boxes. She made a nest on the bottom of the coop floor. Since she did that 2 of my 3 hens are laying there and wont use the nesting box. Is this normal for hens to do this?
Thining back a couple days ago I did unload the fridge and gave everyone (chickens and turks) all the older veggies and fruits. There was a cut up Avocado in there as well. I wasn't sure if that was an Ok food for them and didn't look it up. It appears it could be toxic. could this maybe be what...

...before kill the meat could be tough. Is this true? Experiences?
And lastly to scald before pluck, would a large canning canner do the trick or think it would be too small? What are some of *the things you have used to scald the turkey in? I imagine the birds will be about 17-18lbs at butcher.
I have two broad breasted white turkeys. One for sure is a Tom but not sure on the other. The one in question is somewhat submissive to the Tom but I have seen it strut and gobble. So today we noticed one of turkeys biting and holding onto the others neck. At closer look there is a huge missing...
My hen is in the same boat. She has been wormed, treated for cocci and have even added flock raiser to their feed to beef them up. It looks like it is helping but we are at 2 weeks and still no eggs :(
I have seen those blogs but hers is not red or handing out. I will see if I can get a pic. I do recall her last egg over a week ago was a double yoker. Hasn't laid since.
