    Light Brahma Hen, Weak, Skinny, But Eating/Drinking??

    We have a Light Brahma who will be two in April. She has always been healthy, but we noticed on Sunday that she seemed kind of weak and out of sorts (closing her eyes while foraging). Upon picking her up we discovered she is skin and bones. You can't tell by looking at her as she has a full coat...

    Golden Laced Wyandotte Rooster in NH in Need of a New Home

    My dad has a beautiful Golden Laced Wyandotte rooster that he would like to re-home. He has gotten a bit aggressive and is plucking feathers from his hens. Maybe he would do better in a larger flock with another rooster to put him in his place? He would be great for breeding as he sure is a...

    Muscovy Ducks in Need of a Good Home in Southern NH

    I purchased three, day old Muscovy ducks in early April. They ended up being two ducks and one drake. They were hand raised in our home for the first six weeks and then went out to our small backyard flock of 6 hens. All went quite well for a while, the ducks all go up to the coop with the hens...

They were hand raised in the house for the first six weeks and then moved out to our coop with five chicks of the same age, and our lone remaining hen. We have two ducks and one drake, and all had been well until about a...

    Muscovy Duck- Angel Wing???

    Mixed Breed Roosters (Silkies? Ameracauna?) in Need of Home Southern NH

    I have 2, possibly 3 roosters (9 weeks) in need of homes. Our White Rock went broody over the summer, and she hatched out 6 chicks with some eggs given to us by a lady at our local feed store. She said she has many breeds, silkies being one, which is evident due to the "mohawks some of these...

    Good home(s) for roosters in NH

    Our White Rock went broody over the summer and we obtained some eggs for her to try hatching out. We got 6 chicks and have enjoyed watching mama care for them. It looks as though we have 3 roosters and 3 hens...I am fairly confident that 2 are roosters (in the photos these are the 2 with the...

    Rooster??

    So these guys (or hopefully girls) will be 3 weeks old tomorrow. I have no idea what they are...mixed breed of some sort. Our White Rock here "Peep" went broody over the summer and a lady at a local Tractor Supply gave me 8 eggs. We got 6 chicks! She had a variety of breeds, silkies were the...

    Separating chicks in a very small flock?

    Hello all...I apologize if this has been answered. We have 3 Plymouth Rocks (1 Barred, 1 Partridge and 1 White). Our White girl "Peep" went broody in July and a lady from our local Tractor Supply gave us some eggs from her flock to try hatching (we don't have a rooster). She had advised us to...
