    NJ - RIR Roosters

    I have 4 large hand-raised young Rhode Island Roosters that need to go to another home. I am asking $6.00 each to help cover the feed. One is getting aggressive and pecking, the other three are fine so far. They are beautiful! I'm located in Blairstown, NJ 07825. "Rowanm77" [email protected]

    Strange pheasant-what breed?

    Hi all, Earlier this year I was at the local livestock auction and got one of many boxes of chicks. In it were two "ring-necked pheasant" chicks. Unfortunately, one stressed himself out and died. the other is alive and doing well, sometimes in my coop and sometimes running around in the yard...

    I feel guilty as h***!

    I have been having a problem with what I thought was a racoon pulling my little chicks through the wire and so I locked everyone up securely in the coop every night for about 2 weeks now. Last night I forgot to close the door and this morning my 3 ducklings, 2 turkeylings, 2+ chickens, 2+...

    Is a rat eating my chicks through the cage bottom?

    I put my 17 1-month old RIR chicks in a different cage than usual for the night when I brought them in from their ex-pen. The bottom of the cage sits about 1 1/2 inches off the ground. When I went out the next morning I was horrified to find 5 of my dear babies with severe leg and toe injuries...

    What are "Popcorn chicks"

    I was talking with a friend today about what breeds of chickens I wanted to raise this spring and he said why don't I raise "popcorn chicks". Does anyone know what breed a popcorn chick is? He couldn't tell me anymore than that they are all different colors, very small, jump a lot, and stay...

    Peacock tail feathers

    A friend of mine has two peacocks that she raised from chicks. They are about a year old and she is afraid she has "defective" peacocks! They are definitely both males and are gorgeous shiny turquoise and like to strut around but their 'tails' are dull brown patterned feathers, kind of like a...

    Cuyuga ducks for sale in Northern NJ

    I am selling the last two of the Cuyuga ducks I raised from ducklings. I love them and they are gorgeous but having four ducks is just a little much for my small coop!

    Swollen turkey feet and toes

    My half-grown turkey has swollen and puffy feet and toes. His legs look perfectly fine, just his toes in particular are puffy. I can't see any sign of trauma or discoloration but they feel warm to the touch and he can't wrap them around his perch. He looks like he is in pain. I strongly suspect...

    Wrinkled eggs

    I looked through the past posts and didn't see anything on this topic. For about a month or so my very reliable chickens have been laying wrinkled eggs. Well, the shell is wrinkled. One even had a big blob of shell coming off the end of one egg that got folded! Of 3 eggs every day, one seemed to...
