    Which rooster to breed?

    These two Blue Laced Red Wyandottes are hatch mates from last summer. I can only keep one. Is there a preferred look? The mostly red one on top is larger and gentler. The bottom roo (a Splash?) is smaller but scrappy. Neither one is aggressive. Would love some input on this. Thanks in advance!

    Gosling with an underbite - advice needed

    Sorry this took so long. My camera has a dead battery and I thought I could replace it today and get you a pic, but that didn't pan out. I'm on the search for a new battery now. In the meantime, she seems to be eating ok. It takes her longer to eat and drink, but she is managing.

    Gosling with an underbite - advice needed

    I've got a little female pilgrim gosling, 2 to 3 days old, who's got a pretty good sized underbite. I notice her having a hard time getting the food today - trying to grab it with the side of her mouth. Does anyone have experience with this or advice? Will she be able to feed herself or will...

    My first hatch of 2011 - day 19

    Haven't hatched in my bator since last March! I'm really excited about this one because most of these eggs are my own - 8 Welsummers and 6 Wheaten/Blue Wheaten Ameraucanas. Last time I candled on day 17 all the Amer. were alive and kicking and the Welsummers were too dark to see anything. I'm...

    Thanks to both of you for answering so quickly! I do feel better reading the "Naturalist" site.

    -38 degrees today! Need goose-expert opinion.

    I have 4 Pilgrims out in this and they seem to be fine. They are fat and healthy. They have a nice house, clean straw, warm water, feed, scratch and whole kernel corn. How long can they withstand these temps? It may just be me projecting my human 'stuff' on them, but I'm really feeling for...

    Toulouse or Pilgrim?

    I can only speak for Pilgrims since I've never had any Toulouse, but the Pilgrims are great birds. Friendlier as adults if you handle them when they're goslings, good alarm birds when someone enters the yard, beautiful, auto sexed through life. They are terrific parents. Our gander is three...

    what are the best brody hens

    I have two Black Australorps from MacMurray Hatchery and they both go broody at the drop of a hat and are terrific mothers. I have kept them because they're such good setters and moms.

    Just kind of discouraged. Horrible update: post 29, I think. So sad.

    Hi there. Feelin for ya. I really get it. It's hard, but your birds bring you so much joy and you give them a great life, too. I, for one, have done lot's of things "wrong" and have learned the hard way. In fact, I just lost a turkey hen out of my ignorance about turkeys. I guess I just...

    Lethargic Turkey Hen

    Steve, thank you so much! I checked her and sure enough - MITES! That poor hen was just waiting for me to figure it out. Then I went out and dusted the other turkeys and as many chickens as I could catch. Today, I'm moving the turkeys down the road to a kind neighbors empty barn. They'll...
