My peacock os about a year old. I just need to know how much Tylosin powder to put in his water per gallon. The pack i got is for pigeons and says 1 teaspoon per gallon but online I saw for peacocks online someone said 1 1/2 teaspoons for 6 gallons. This doesn't seem right proportionally so I...
I had a pair of around 6 month old blue peafowl that I was planning on breading when they matured. But the hen unexpectedly died on Monday. We are looking to replace her with a new hen preferably around the same age. The young cock is getting lonely. 😔
Thanks ahead of time to anyone who can...
So my 2 Peachicks (between 4 and 5 months old) we're diagnosed with Coccidia by a Vet. We finished treating them for it a few weeks ago. I was wondering if I could put Corid powder in there water like once a month for a while just to make sure they don't get reinfected. If so I'd also like to...
My peachicks are probably about 3 months old and are sneezing and breathing funny. It's hard to explain but it sounds like gurgling like they might have something in their throats. I thought about gapeworm but I read that sneezing is not a symptom of that. Their mouths are cracked open a bit...
I just got a pare of peachicks yesterday, I'm thinking they're at least 3 months old maybe more. My original plan was to put them in their own pen that I built for them, until I heard that they can get worms from being on the ground. The pen I built for them is the back of my barn so it has a...
I'm new to peafowl but have been reading up on them. I'm hoping to but some peafowl this spring and was wondering if any of you knew a good place near Western KY with healthy birds and good prices that I could look into.
I'm planning on attempting to incubate some peahen eggs and was wondering if they'd fit in my current egg turner. I have a 15 chicken egg turner. I'm thinking it'll be too small but I just wanted to see what y'all thought. If they di fit another question would be if I could put them in at a...
I have a Vick's filter free cool mist humidifier and don't know wether to put it outside with a tube going into the incubator, or to put it inside. I was going to put it inside but I was a little worried that the condensation might mess up the humidifier. Any comments are appreciated!!
I'm thinking about getting quail some day but I need to Know if I can give them Chick starter/grower while they are young and layer pellets when they're adults?
We have had chickens for about 8 years. I didn't actually get interested in them till earlier this year when I hatched four chicks in a homemade incubator! Later I hatched four more chicks in a semi automatic incubator which are the chicks that I have currently. We have 15 Hens, 2 Roos and 4...
I have four bantam chicks that I hatched in my homemade incubator. One of them was unusually small and has started limping! It just noticed it this morning and I have no idea what happened!! please help!!!
thanks in advance!
My oldest chick (3 days old) can't poop! He could yesterday! He squats and tries to, but he can't. All that comes out is a drop of water! I already checked for pasty butt and I don't think he has it.
What should I do?
I have two chicks in my incubator right now and the youngest loves the oldest!
When it came time to move the older chick (1 day old) into the brooder, it was scared and didn't move at all!
The little chick (12 hours old) started to freak out when it couldn't find him, so I put the older chick...
