    To amputate or cull?

    I have one peachick with a bad leg...bad enough to amputate. My question is: Can peafowl lead a fairyl normal life on one leg aside from mating. Thanks in advance. Mitch

    Incubator burn

    This year I tried to leave my peachicks in the bator longer to let them dry out better. A couple have burns on thier head from the heating element. Does anyone know if this will eventually fill in?

    I Love My Splits!

    I have a pair of IB splits (white flight feathers) that have unknown genetics. Last year, I hatched one purple female, one IB white eye male, and one IB split female. Today I hatched what seems to be a pure IB with no white flights. Also, one chick died after popping the lid off of its shell...

    The movie "UP"

    Any body seen it? I now have a young purple peahen named Kevin! Good to hear the mating calls again, though they were very distant. Decent movie if you are accustomed to the kid's stuff.

    Interesting hatch

    I had a mixture of about twenty cotornix qauil, all but one that were the standard color. They were laying about five eggs a day and I incubated about 30 eggs with five hatching (terrible, I know). None of the others were fertile. Now comes the interesting part...one of the parent stock was...

    Unique Bottons

    Here are some pics of button quail some of you thought may be unique. Their breast/bottom really glows under the right lights. I think there is a radiation leak somewhere!

    valley quial deaths

    Yep, I did it. I killed all 13 of my valleys. They were kept in four different places (some down the street), all died with no apparent symptoms, they died in lots of two or three, and were not all the same age or from the same source. I fed them game bird starter and conditioner, they had...

    What are these?

    I know very little about turkeys, and I was given these two this summer. They were in rough shape when I got them, but you should see them now! Can anyone tell me what breed they are and also why they have become more agressive towards me lately? Do they breed in the fall and in the spring? I...

    Still air incubator mod

    I have an extra still air styrofoam bator that I would like to add a fan to. I can get the 110V fan and I am capable of attaching it to the unit. Do you think it is worth doing? I know that my hatch rate is significantly higher in the one that is circulated. Will this mod make the still air...

    juvenile valley quail

    Do young valley females look very much like bobwhites or did I get screwed?

    Bobwhites eating their eggs

    I had my quail in the pen with a delaware hen and I caught her eating one of the quail eggs. So, I moved a pair of bobs into the empty brooder a few days ago. I got home from work today and the female was eating her fresh egg. Will they do this if they are not getting enough calcium, and will...

    Pied?

    This guy has always had some faint white on his shoulders. Is he pied? And is the hen purple? Thanks, Mitch.

    hen eating eggs

    I caught my favorite Delaware hen eating a bobwhite egg today. Bad news? Will she eat her own? Have not gotten an egg from her in a while, or have I?

    Green Peacock Displaying

    I have seen lots of pictures of greens but never of a male displaying. Are they too modest?

    How do you keep young peas off the ground?

    It is my understanding from what I have read that peachicks should be kept off of the ground for about 6 months. Is this correct, and how do you accomplish this? My adults are in a large pen with a dirt floor. I have a 3 ft by 3ft by 6 ft cage that I could use, but I would want it in the pen...

    Anyone want to guess what these peachicks are?

    Here are three chicks from the same split IB parents. This one is much lighter and more solid than the others. This one is a little darker with white on its shoulders and white flights. And this one is the darkest with white flights. Here they are together for comparison. The parents...

    Three Chicks!

    I am the proud father of my first three chicks. Their parents are IB. The father is split to white and the hen is an unknown split. The three chicks look quite different at two weeks. One is "monotone" light brown, one is a normal looking IB with white flight feathers, and the other is very...
