    10 Black Ostralorpes - 3 months old!

    6 Extremely Rare Blue Isbar Hatching Eggs

    My Blue Isbars have started laying so I should have 6 more eggs available to ship next week, or for local pickup. I live in NE Alabama.

    Turkeys and Chickens

    Half feathered, half not.

    I had a chick die unexpectedly the other day. Probably a month and half to two months old. Looked fine, acted fine. I picked it up and under its left wing he had a lack of down like under the right wing. Any ideas here? My other chicks haven't been effected by anything.

    Hello from Fort Payne, AL

    Hi everyone, I'm new here and I have a lot of fun with chickens and have some rare ones I'd love to start sharing with everyone. I live on a small farm in town, the epitome of "daddy won't sell the farm." Encroached by schools and urban housing, I'm hanging onto what is left of the family farm...
