Hi,
There are three different Brinsea minis - the eco, the advanced and the advanced EX. All three of them are listed here: http://www.brinsea.com/products/mini.html
Does anyone have the Advanced EX version and if so:
- have you hatched Serama out of it?
- do 12 Serama eggs fit in the...
...would like to know what membership means apart from paying dues. I don't mind paying dues, but I would like there to be something I can actually *do* as well (versus due) for these associations if I'm going to be a member of them.
I see the benefits for all of them (IE: APA members earn...
I remember something I saw or heard in my youth. It had something to do with a green jogging suit, and the person wearing it felt like a watermelon with a head while wearing it. I also seem to recall something to do with the person's dog; it wouldn't bark when he saw strangers, but would...
Has anyone tried H & H Old Fashioned Chicken Feed with their flock and if you've personally tried it what results did it have within your flock? Positives? Negatives?
The ingredients are listed here on their site: http://www.handhsoyfreechickenfeed.com/default.html and I'm looking at the...
This was an interesting read (to me) so I figured I would share it. It was written in 2002 so I'm sure some of you have already read it, but I know others haven't.

I know this is probably a longshot, but it would be really helpful if there could be a separate forum area for those who are trying to sell their birds but will not ship them, and a forum area for those who are willing to ship them. Several times (cannot even count how many) I've clicked on a...
...a try since it's such a fun experience (to me it is anyway).
To those who don't know, you're basically sending someone something that you have *not* baked, just stirred. This is called the starter, and it's a batter you'd be receiving. Depending on where you are in the chain you could get...
...when they've flung bedding into it so there's no water, but spongy bedding. ;)
We're not looking for nipple waterers simply because I personally *really* enjoy watching my chickens drink their water. I just think it's adorable how they dip down and then fling their heads back and gulp - so...
All I can say about our coop is that I literally cried when he arrived with it. I have never seen anything so expertly crafted in my entire life and all those pictures don't do it justice. This thing was rock solid from top to bottom...no way anything is getting in or out of it unless we put...
According to Wikipedia (which actually isn't always accurate), the Araucana, Ameraucana and easter eggers all stemmed from the same three starting breeds (those listed in the title) I was wondering if anyone in the United States was breeding any of the three starter breeds, and had their own...
...told they were direct from a certain breeder (a well known breeder whose birds are highly sought after) only to find out later that these birds are *not* from the lines of said breeder and are completely unrelated. Do I have any recourse? They are still selling these chickens and their...
I was wondering if anyone could tell me if a temperature spike in a 'bator for 6 hours at 103.5 to 104 could cause a chick to hatch out as a complete problem child, meanie-head cull-worthy obnoxious fart? We had a temp spike, I've spoken about it several times on this forum, and ended up with...
Hi y'all,
I'm wondering why virtually every picture I see of baby chicks - they are fluffy and beautiful and alert and standing on their feet...posted as "newly hatched" or "new".
Mine don't look anything remotely like fluffies until day 3 of their little lives at least - sometimes day 4...
...I literally thought chickens were chickens...bawk bawk, plop an egg and some looked different than others but I had NO idea there were actual *breeds* of chickens, and an APA that has SOP in regard to what each of those breeds are supposed to be.
In good conscience, whether I'm breeding...
Disclaimer: I'm not trying to be a troll, lol...I'm just clarifying what I think many people might not know.
Possums are not indigenous to the United States; they don't live here anywhere other than zoos.
You've also probably heard that one is the Australian version and the other is the...
Is anyone else up and cruising BYC because you can't sleep due to "thanksgiving heartburn" ... I am. lol! Nope I don't need a doctor, just Tums. I don't get heartburn but twice a year - Thanksgiving and Christmas.
...neighbor's five foot fence on their daily "hour long" outings in the yard - at 1 month of age - it's time to clip.
I picked up the female and *very gently* moved her wing in the same motion she does when she's flapping them but she screamed like a banshee - acted like I was trying to rip...
...strawberry pie and her child comes up with a nasty torn up stained raunchy looking dog toy and a dog and starts talking about this. The mother *grabs the yucky dog toy*, handles it, and throws it for the dog - and get this - goes right back to serving strawberry pie and cool whip....didn't...
Common sense tells me to cull her, but I just don't know for sure. She is deformed in her right wing, as it stretches outward like a human arm, rather than folding inward like a chicken wing. She's gorgeous in coloring, just like her sibling that hatched earlier today, and she has quite the...
