I'm looking for a bantam Rhode Island Red cock to use as a stud, the pullets I'm breeding conform to the SOP very nicely and I'm hoping to find a rooster that does the same. I am willing to pay a reasonable amount of money, drive or pay for shipping for the right bird. thanks!

I don't want to start anothger annoying newbie "how do i" post, but this is pretty much this is, sorry. I want to raise a small batch of turkeys (maybe 5 at most) for my family and neighbors, i was planning on using spanish blacks or royal palms, but i'll get them through Mcmurray so they aren't...
I've been raising doves since i was 9 yrs old and I'v always shown in 4h, i also raise show old english and entered them in more serious shows which for a while took most of my time away from the doves. But now i'm getting back into the doves and would like to start entering some bigger shows, i...
3.5 month old golden pheasant male, as close to pure as you can find, parents are 9 yrs old and still going strong (figured they would be too old to breed, guess not) If you are going to use him in a breeding program trying to bring pure blood back to goldens you can have him free. If i don't...
I have a juvenile male that i hatched out this year that i really need to find a home for. When I purchased my pair of adults the breeder told me they were pure, and i haven't found any markings that would say otherwise. I do not have the space necessary to breed large amounts of birds but would...
just got back from our counties fair, Middlesex (biggest all 4h fair east of the mississippi, bragging rights) I was showing my birds (and also organizing stuff, so running around like a chicken with its head cut off, but i digress) I have a freedom ranger that escaped her fate by running away...
yes i googled it, but the problem is most sites were saying 5-8 years. I bought a pair probably 7 years ago, i don't remember the exact details but i think the male was 2 or 3 yrs already, (he had adult plumage) and the breeder wasn't sure about the female. They're gorgous birds and my only pair...
Organics as we recognize them today are not the same as they were in the beginning, they have gone largely industrial, allow a large amount of fairly dangerous chemicals to be used, and it has become very expensive and difficult to become certified organic, especially if your a small scale...
about a year ago my birds got infected with scaly leg at a show due to a careless exhibitor (partially my fault i didn't jump on it fast enough) I did eventually take care of it, which was trying enough (you try smearing vaseline on an annoyed chickens legs when its 5* out) and have gotten rid...
i want to make a batch of pickled quail eggs and i'm wondering if their gonna be safely preserved without a hot water bath for the jars after being filled. I figure that the batch would probably screw up the eggs by cooking them more but without it are they safe?
I've been trying to breed a silky hen ringneck for a few years with little success, most of my males were too old etc. I got rid of a few other birds (pigeons) and now have time to focus on breeding my silky. I want to get the maximum number of chicks as stock for next year before winter hits...

i don't want to start another animal cruelty debate, and this is gonna happen no matter what, so if you don't like dubbing leave this post, no joke, click the back button now. My roosters have every luxury they could ever want, 5 seconds of pain doesn't bother them too much, and their gonna get...
i started treating my birds for scaly leg today (again), in the past i'v tried using vaseline, vinegar, and vegetable oil, they all worked with mild success but nothing to brag about. I'm not sure if the mites are still there or if the scales are still raised because of dirt (i suspect the...
