Good luck, you have to go through a series of paperwork with the federal government to be approved. Its not easy to bring poultry in from other countries. Last I heard, the only farm given approval for imports was Green Fire Farms. Google importing poultry into the United States

"a hen or rooster down into a "cool" tub of water will likely produce a big enough of a shock to kill it" No Disrespect, as an emergency intervention, this has saved many of my birds who were listless, and not moving due to heat fatigue.... Gatorade is an emergency intervention. Not a cure. If...
I have that problem when one of mine go broody, I have to pull them and put them in a cage for about a month by them self , to get them to stop laying on the eggs and losing their feather on their chest and bellies Has she refused to get off the nest?
It may be heat exhaustion, , if you have any electrolytes,The added sugar may help give her the boost she needs to get up. I usually keep Gatorade for emergency in the summer, I would go get the clear type , avoid color or food dyes, of Gatorade from the convenience store and fill a bowl with...
She is not pale, that's a good thing..ceck her vent for redness , egg bound, ... check her breast bones, does she feel thin, maybe worms, if she doesn't feel well. Her eyes are clear, no nasal discharge, that looks great
Are they panting with wings spread out? If so, bring them in or get a small dishwashing bucket, filled with tap cool water, not cold. Submerse them in it to bring down their body temp. Hold them for a minute or two 2nd, give them Gatorade to drink, or some type of electrolytes asap....If they...
If you keep opening the incubator it'll die trying to break through a hard shell
Try misting the with water bottle to bring up humidity otherwise the shell will be to hard for him to hatch
Just a thought ! it does works !

Hi everyone, I'm back, been away for a while well since early last year or longer. Lost almost all my birds to predators and a new neighbor who I caught torturing my birds then bragging about killing all my guinea fowl. Idiot did not realize they were killing all the snakes in his yard and...
My second try at hatching Barbezieux, 24 eggs labeled "B" the remaining are "D" Dominique Eggs. They are identical, both breeds eggs are identical in color and weigh in between .08 oz to 1.9 oz. before going in the Incubator. I read here the eggs are huge, has anyone weighed their eggs before...

If handled when young, he roosters and hens are very gentle. They are flighty and have a mind of their own. They march to their own drums and do not socialize with the other breeds very often. The roosters run from a fight. The hens are not broody and will lay their eggs in another hens nest to...
Selling the chicks for $ 30 will be hard, Greenfire is able to because of reputation, I think it will take a lot of work before others will respect the breed. I said before in another post I found them hard to hatch that may be their downfall. My goal right now is to hatch as many as I can and...
