I was really excited to find they sexed their sultans... It's what won me over. I went back to the site and it says they arn't going to hatch them this comming year, but there new2011 catalog still offers them.
I've been looking around for some. I lack the time to build my own coop, and the money to buy one. Most coops out in the market are small and way too expensive to even consider. Does anyone know where/who has nice shed kits? (pre-fab or pre-cut)
I let my broody hen, Angel, sit on eggs for the first time, 4 out of 5 hatched, not bad. She also excepted 6 others. She's in her own pen away from the others too. She's never been friendly to me, and watches me when I enter. Lately she hasn't been calling the chicks under her when I do, which...
We have had quite a few riendly chickens, but I would have to say half of them are pretty reserved, and I would like to get your opinions, especially because I have new chicks.
I pretty much just found out that this place is only 6.5 miles away from me lol Their prices are reasonable, and they are willing to make my own coop. I've seen their work up close, it is fantastic, and with everything the price would only be slightly higher than builing my idea myself. I'm soo...
Which one has better quality birds? Better shipping?
McMurray carries breeds/types like White Jersey Giants and White Sultan Bantams, unlike MPC, but MPC carries Marans, Sexed Blue Cochins ,and prices are a bit lower on some. When I look at what I would purchase, the amount is fairly the same...
Just a roandom question, I would like your opinions on what you prefer. I'm getting a few breeds and there are so many colors. Don't list breeds just colors, please..
Let's have fun with this one
I'm going to get about 20 chickens, next year, and I'm planning on a coop. About how big do you recommend the space for them inside, they will be a mix of bantams and standards, and will also have a huge run (will be aloud to free range when I am home)? At the moment I was thinking around 8'x5'...
Okay, I'm going to be heading to the "chicken breeder" county to purchase some chicks (and I'm looking towards some breeders here too).
I have a few things that I need out of my chickens-
1st Docile
2nd Calm
3rd Lays pretty well
4th Is not too terribly reliable on people
I have a few breeds...
Friday we found our goat in her stall. She wouldn't move. She was laying down with head up, a little shakey, and she was bawling. She would eat and drink a little at a time. We checked on her about 30 minutes later and the back of her head was touching her spine, she was on her side, and her...
Listings and recommendations? I have fallen for these birds, and would like to have some bantams, I like the blue salmon variety, but the salmon is still extremely beautiful. Thanks
I just want to know because I'm thinking about having a few, and I want to try having a rooster of some sort. I heard that they are more gentle than others, but I have had a bad experince with one big rooster that makes me very cautious. (I do know that every chicken has a different...
Yeah I know.. a little slow.
I just wanted to say a few things.
The Friesians there were absolutely gorgeous. They had one that was mostly blind, he was a beaytiful stallion that trusted his trainer enough to run and do dressage. He was amazing.
Then there were Mules and some other horses like...
