    My poor turkey

    Can anyone tell me what is happening to my turkey? This brood breasted white is suppose to be thanksgiving dinner. If it has to get antibiotic that is fine and it will be a pet (or still eaten if that's ok). It's eye keeps blowing snot bubbles too.

    Egg dissolved

    I went to close up the coop tonight and noticed this egg in their nest. My White leghorns are just starting to lay. One of them laid a little faery egg today. I think this might be one of their eggs too as they are the only ones that lay white eggs. Here is a picture. Any ideas on what is...

    So one of my barred rocks is being weird. She was all buffed up in a little nest she made. But she isn't laying yet! She has been doing this for days trying out different spots. When I tried to get her up and to eat and drink she did both then plopped back in her spot. I had been thinking...

    Bantam Coops

    We have a large 12 X 12 coop. We have some bantams and silkies and some big birds. Has anyone ever build a little coop inside a coop with a small door for the bantams to have a place to get away from the big birds?

    Favus

    I think I have a hen with Favus, now I have ringworm on my hand. Is it from my chickens? I have checked other pets but none of them have it. What can I do for my chickens? I am already being treated but I don't want it to spread to my other chickens.

    Chicks and heat

    I am wondering how warm it needs to be for 2.5 week old chicks. They have a heat lamp and they are inside the house. It is very warm today and I am wondering if I can turn off their heat lamp. It is around 75 F in the house and around 85 with the lamp on.

    New to hatching

    My son really wants to try to hatch some of our chickens eggs. I am wondering what a good incubator is. I need one that does not require constant supervision as we are gone to work or out and about often. So i guess i need an automatic turner? We are looking for about 10 or so hatchlings...
