I will be bringing this bantam Cochin rooster to sell, I will include the hen (she is a Cochin/Silkie) if anyone would like the pair. They are just over a year old now so they are a little bigger than the picture. Name your price! I need to make some space!
I know! I found out after we left that there were several people there that I would have known from BYC. Maybe at Chickenstock! We will definitely be there!
This was our first time going to a poultry show and I was pretty disappointed. I'm hoping that they aren't all like that. It seemed poorly organized and very few people were willing to talk to us. We were just there trying to learn the ropes and see some nice birds. Oh well, hopefully we will...
My husband and I also work a 4 10s schedule so you're not alone at all! Our flock is small compared to a lot of the other member's on here but they are full of great advice and info! You're close to me! Where do you work??
Happy Sunday everybody. I haven't commented in a while but I've been lurking in the shadows. My sweet husband is apparently a glutton for punishment and bought me this huge GQF incubator for Christmas. It was gently used and looks brand new. My first eggs I've ever hatched are in it now and...
Not good, little chicken died Saturday morning. She fought hard and I tried. I hare it but it happens. Thanks for asking, I haven't been on in several days!
Update on little hen...she's still alive! I'm very surprised. She looks bad and her head is just floppy but I got some steroids in her so hopefully that will kick in. Hoping she pulls through!
Hey everyone, little made it through the night but didnt look good this morning. I haven't made it home yet from work and I'm not very optimistic. Hope she surprises me and us mad at being stuck in a crate inside when I get home! Thanks for all of the advice and good vibes!
Ok, the only reason I had it on her was that I was worried she was in shock right after it happened. She was shivering so bad and her feet were freezing. That's all stopped now though.
Thanks y'all, that is interesting article Rameriz, I will pick up what I need tomorrow for her. She's getting a lot more active in the crate this last hour. Lots of chirping and squirming around. Hopefully she is coming around. I had no idea about the crested breeds having soft spots in their...
Well, she doesn't seem to be much worse but isn't better either. I've been reading other threads with people saying they've had them bounce back just like you have. I'm hoping for the best, she's a really sweet chicken. Her eyes seem ok. She has opened them up when I've gone to handle her...
