It's been pretty cold for a couple of weeks now here in Kentucky. Best I can tell, ice is 3.5-4" thick on my ponds. I use heavy iron bar to keep a small hole open for a pair of black swans on one pond. [1st picture] On the other pond a male black neck swan keeps a large 10' diameter hole open...
I have over 100 serama, 50 modern game and about 30 silkies for sale. Ages range from a few weeks old to about 7-months old. I have both frizzled and straight feather serama. They vary from pet quality to show quality. Sizes are mostly B and C. Prices begin at $5 and go up to $100. I probably...
My female black neck swan (avatar picture) has been sitting on at least three eggs for about two weeks now. Could be more eggs, but I don't want to disturb her to find out, as she rarely leaves the nest. The odd thing is that she is only about 1.5 years old and most don't begin laying nearly...

I'm kind of proud of my Malay pullet. She has hatched 7 babies with two more possible, despite another female laying on top of her eggs. Three hatched out yesterday and four more today. About twenty one days ago I noticed she began sitting on 10 eggs. A week ago I noticed one egg was broken and...
I not trying to sell any yet, but wonder about how much these chicks are worth. Can't find any for sale at this size to compare. Got to move them to larger quarters soon.

I had 4 of 10 eggs I kept after day 10 to hatch. This was my first try at hatching and the eggs were from young O Shamo and Malay chickens. Some of the eggs were a little older than 10-days. I tried to candle one of the eggs today [day 23] but couldn't tell much. I decided to crack it open. It...
