    Name this breed…. Please?

    I bought several chickens from TSC. It’s was like a blue light special🥹. They are all doing well. But for life of me, I have no idea the breed. If you need more pics, I’ll run right out and get more pics. Thank you all!

    Puking 1 week old duckling....ideas???

    What do you think this is?

    I need some help. This is a bump. It is hard and smooth like a pea under the skin. I just noticed it today (4/11/15) She, of course, is my favorite hen. Is this a tumor? How about a piece of sand turning into a pearl? Could it be a blocked duct? An abscess not ready to pop? What do you think?

    25 Wks No Eggs Yet

    I have 3 nice light brahmas and they are 25 weeks old. I have been waiting patiently for eggs to magically appear, but nothing. The days are getting shorter and we've had snow. (Which the girls don't like at all!!) Should I put a light bulb in the coop? Would a 40w be enough? I'm a nervous...
