I am going to be breeding my meat doe and would like to tattoo the kits that she produces for identification purposes.
so was wondering if anyone here tattoos their rabbits? and if so what do you use?
My hen Lanna a 2-year-old crested cream legbar has been drowsy for the past day.
Last night I checked on her and she was drowsy, I massaged her crop for a bit and today she seemed slightly better but not much. Tonight I gave her some apple cider vinegar.
She has been picking at her layer but not...
I had a cockerel that was 20 weeks old and doing great then seemed to be having seizures he was mouth open breathing, and convulsing, he would eat and drink but was severely off with the aim of his beak like he would peck at the food but swerve to the side. I euthanized him earlier today but...
This is a 4.5-month-old chick that I hatched. I was wondering if you wonderful people on BYC could help me identify what mix s/he is. (Poll above has all possible mixes)

Being in northern Wi it gets really cold here like I'm talking -30 and under so I plan on creating a breed of chicken that is very cold hardy.
The plans -
Size : Medium to large
Temperament : Calm and Social
Comb + waddles : Smallest comb and waddles as possible like this cockerel's comb and...

Hello!
My year-old polish pullet has gone to daily laying so I HAD to set some!

Let me know what egg you want and I will add you to my list.
My little silkie that hatched out is tiny and behind the others, he is the size of a newly hatched porcelain D'uccle.
Adding to being small his feet are now curling somewhat making it hard for him to walk. Should I wrap his feet?
He also isn't eating much. should I give him some yolk or Nutri...
this is not your normal story about "Oh my sweet you baby has tried to spur me what do I do?!?!"
This is me looking for some help with an absolute jack of a rooster.
I got him as a 6-month-old and he has been the Devil since then the people who had him pampered him, held him, babied him, and...
Do you like them or do ya hate them?
I have a love/hate relationship with the son-of-a-buggers.
I like that they eat bugs and ticks and stuff
But good god are they loud.
When I get a chance I'm gonna post all the jokes I know on here.
These are all ones I have collected over the years.
I will post the joke than a few weeks later I'll post the correct answer until then we'll see who gets the closest.
I have a "pure" polish roo. the people I got him from say he's from the local feed store and he is a pure polish. But he has 5 toes on each foot.
would this be passed on to his chicks & would this be to the SOP (I assume not but wondering)?
His extra toes look like this silkies extras.
