Hey guys, I have a Ameraucana rooster (but upon reading apparently he isn't a true Ameraucana but is an EE?..), anyway, I have 8 eggs in my incubator (due to hatch tomorrow) .. 7 are crossed with brown leghorn hens and 1 is either a buff Orpington, or a buff brahma... I'm curious as to if...
Hello,
I am going to be getting my first quad of quails in May. I've done some research and I think I should by ready by then. What I'm wondering is, was there any surprises or doe thing you wish you knew, or wish you had done with your quails when you got them? :)
So I woke up this morning and found one of my chickens dead (just under a year old-already been laying for a couple months). This afternoon I checked on the chickens again and found my red rock X looking sick. Lazy not running away from me like she usually does, wasn't eating or drinking...
Has anybody ever raised meat birds?
What are the best kind. We don't really 'broil' chickens so is there any kind specifically for Roasting?
Is there anything you specifically need to do to the meat birds that you don't do to the egg birds (Other than feed).
What have your experiences been...
Hello,
Okay so I am new to this website. I have been here a few times but I decided to make an account :D
Anyways, I have had chickens before when I lived on Vancouver Island (We had about 40 layer chickens) and we moved to northern BC 3 years ago and I finally decided to get chickens again...
