ive been dealing with a flock infestation of corzya, I will be taking the necessary steps of culling and cleaning. Because I got LOTS of things to clean and disinfect.
Here is a link the the other thread of the beginning issue and it has the comments of what I will be doing detailed there...
It's not dusty or that much that is for my pullet to be constantly sneezing, it can be 5min intervals or 2 between sneezing. She acts normal, eats, drink, scratches, playful. But yet she hasn't quit sneezing since I bought her.. Any ideas to as what it is? Should I just up her vitamins and put...
I had bought this 2 year old grey game being told it was a "Lonestar" Law cock, owner said he was all white on top before he molted and then gold and a reddish brown came out, now I know gold is recessive and any black fowl carry it BUT he had a pea comb! He does have yellow legs and some of his...
I always heard the hen gives off more genes to the cockerels and the rooster gives more genes to the pullets,
Is this true? Also how does the percentages work, is it random as well some fowl can get more blood then say their brother or sister of one side then the other?
I've never really had to deal with hens much till recently, and I have a pen of 4 red stars with a two year old American game (best protection for the hens when free ranging), I'll be picking up a game pullet that the owner says is about 7 months old but when I looked at her she didn't seem THAT...
So I bought this book via Amazon a year or so ago for $60, done some reading but it is very scientific.

I figure I would start a thread for those who have the book as well and need help understand parts of it as we'd...
any asil,Malay, shamo or Sumatra breeders or owners in Texas?
There's a few other breeds that interest me as well but I'm looking to buy preferably Malay or shamo.
Also can pay for shipping of live stock and eggs if someone isn't in Texas and have eggs for sale!
My father was having a cookout and asked me and my girlfriend over of course well, we were there most of the day as he prepped everything and drank with his girlfriend and all her family and friends. I leave to take my girlfriend's brother home and help them for an hour and I come back to...
The past couple day it's been hot HOT out and this is about the second time I caught my large gamecock just laying down, I do not have cold yogurt or fruit to give him and he will not stand water on him unless I hold him instead I was debating should I just trim his feathers being he has alot...
He's been running around in town yards and some neighbors were afraid he'd get their chicks so I took him home but not sure of what he is, really healthy, perfectly colored comb. good weight but spurs are questionable to possibly been cut in the past.
Given that Sumatra blood I will be using for this cross in is near game, they're free ranged among woodlands and open range. Basically wild, low to none dependence on feed around the yard. They always find their own food (the pair and trio) so with that being said, I'm thinking of crossing in...
He's part malay as well, I assumed short legged male, female American game. He was in a bad place, got em back up weight. Just about a cock, and clean spurs. Lemme see yalls. Had more but moved, gonna build a few fly pens and more.
Got him from a yard that consisted possibilities of a cross between two out of the 5, standard game, malay, shamo, Sumatra and Phoenix. His behavior leans towards oriental so does his crow, body structure, station, comb. Owner thinks he was a cross between standard and Phoenix when he has yellow...
I started smoking again around May earlier this year, but only red shorts and I rip off the filter. I don't binge/chain smoke. Rarely smoke more than 5-7 a day but I got a dry cough that itches and makes me want to cough more. I've had a cough before about a month ago but it was more of just...
I picked up a OEGB cock but he doesn't have a straight comb, he was only 5 bucks but I don't like being mislead lol he has the game and vigor of one though, I have a 7-8 month leghorn cockerel he had put in place lmao
Malays game and vigor as a oriental (wouldn't say wild) by old gamefowl by crossing (preferrably the rare blue) Sumatra stag with a malay hen and breed the cocks game and vigor into the pullets. Then making a working hybrid with far less holes in the genetics. (Health, prone to diseases, defects...
So today, a grandson of a game fowl fancier was telling me there's people trying and there's a possibility of cockfighting becoming legal again in Oklahoma as it's only be banned since 02. If such were to happen that'd be a quick bill flipped say 14 years lol. But I doubt it'll happen since the...
