Howdy y’all! I just got two Toulouse geese, they are about 1.2 years old and one is for sure a male, but the other we ain’t sure about. Would he/she be laying already if it was a girl? Im new to geese so sorry if this is a dumb question. Thanks for any help! ☺️
Howdy y’all! It’s been a minute since I’ve been on BYC, but was wondering if someone could help me find out what color of Silkie chicks I have. I ordered 15 from Cackle Hatchery and it was their surprise ones that I got, which contains black, buff, white, blue, and splash! I think I got at least...
Do y’all know what breed these frizzles are? I’m taking them to fair and need to know the breed for showmanship! Mainly just the black pullets breed, thank you!!
Look y’all!
Eeeek, I’m so excited to have this opportunity to add this sweet pair to my flock!! I think I’ll be naming the pullet “Miss Frizzle” but not too sure about my white cockerel!! Any name ideas??? I’m so excited!! :wee :celebrate
I’m so in love with them already 🥰
If I read...
Howdy y’all!
Well, the thread title kinda sums it all up 😂
I really am stumped on these colors I’ve got this year. The mamas are black & white (Favor) and Blue (Dakota, not a true blue) and the drake is blue (not true) or a lavender barred pied.
I do think duckling 5 is gonna be black & white...
Hello y’all 😄
I had a single duckling hatch this morning and I know that they imprint and require a bit of attention (I’ve had two or more). I plan to take him/her wherever I go, so she/he is used to going places. If I bring Riley (name if duckling) during a car ride, how do I keep it warm...
Howdy y’all, hope everyone is doing good!
My dad and I picked up 10 straight run Bourbon red poults this evening.
They had put them in a super small box and it was sooo hot in there (I’m surprised non died it was so hot), so I put them in a bigger carrier that way they could cool down and have...

The title sums it all up. Favor, my big Muscovy hen, has decided to brood and has 22 eggs!!!! 😱 I’ve never had one have this many… is it possible for her to hatch ALL of them? Just curious cuz… that’s a lotta eggs… now far off from two dozen haha
Welcome to my thread!

Really hoping I can get some help/confirmation on this.
I little bit ago, we had 4 chicks hatch (two pullets and two roos), just Barnyard mixes. Well, unfortunately, I lost my Buff Orpington rooster, Peter, a few months ago during a cold spell (he was amazing and my favorite). Now that 3/4 of...
Howdy y’all, hope everyone is doin well.
I have a bantam rooster that is disabled and is currently an inside/outside bird.
Right now, we are in bad icy weather and he can’t be out with the other chickens due to I cannot trust em with him. He gets very cold being outside alone so he’s in the...
Hey y’all, I need help.
We have a neighbor who used to have a few dogs. They bred them a lot and it was just a puppy mill to make money, they also didn’t let the mom dog have her puppies.
Well, this year the mom dog (looked like a herding dog mix) died, she was ALWAYS chained to a tree, no...

Rest In Peace Kevin Potawatomi. 💔
Kevin, know that raising you was one of the greatest things I’ve done in my life, I love telling people the story about you, it was a risky journey for sure, but by God’s grace, He let you live. From the day you hatched, I feared losing you...
Hello y’all, this is en emergency!
We had 4 ND kids born yesterday, one was still born and the other 3 were fine until today!! The buckling isn’t doing good at all, we had tried giving Replacement Colostrum and a boost. He hardly has wanted to eat and we have been syringe feeding him, but he’s...
My mom and my mom’s friend found a Bob white quail who was in a dog’s mouth when they were headed to town, we have treated the wounds and they aren’t bad at all. I have never had quail before, how do I get set up for her? I will be getting her a mate here soon. Her name is Bobby ☺️ Any help is...
Hey y’all! We had a duck and chicken nest under our porch steps, in the backyard, without us knowing because it’s a place we don’t have great access to. I’m trying to figure out what the chicks are a cross of, can you help? Also, All chicks hatched from brown eggs.
The hens that are always in...

Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you ☺️
Hey guys!
A little bit ago I had a Muscovy hatch 10 ducklings, all were lavender except 3, 2 are lavender pie, and 1 was white. The mom is a lavender pied and the dad is lavender(he was sold to me as blue). Well, they are all getting feathers in and the “white” one is now getting a blue-ish...
