So, I have a bred jersey heifer that I'm worried about. I recently purchased her, and she's been an amazing girl. She's super friendly, likes being petted, likes being brushed, and has a great attitude. I've been spending soooo much time with her. Yesterday I started noticing she kept bellowing...
Hey everybody! Just wondering what everybody's favorite milk cow breed, and why? Also curious about jersey cow prices in different areas for bred, breeding age, and babies?
Hello, it's been very cold here lately. My head rooster has a black/purple line in the middle of his comb (following the arch). I am worried about this. Does anybody know what this can be? I will get a picture as soon as I can, but any help would be appreciated.
I was wondering about the advantages/disadvantages of electric poultry fencing? I assume the poultry will get electrocuted at some point? Any experiences or opinions please?
im curious about the coloring on the cream legbar females. Is the color suppose to be so dramatically different on females? I have females that have the brown/golden color pattern, and other ones with dark grey/light grey coloring. Are there such variations within the breed?
Hey guys is this Easter egger a cockatiel or pullet? I've never had any doubt that she was a pullet the entire few months I've had her but, she's really acting like a cockerel. Looking back she's always acted like a cockerel. I've come to learn that Easter eggers are hard to distinguish male...
Does anybody have any ideas what breeds of chicks these could be? My order consisted of 5 barred rock pullets, 5 New Hampshire pullets, 15 straight run of the adoption special, and a meal maker. I ordered 26 chicks, and 26 came. I was DOA and it's looking like a few more aren't going to make it...

I have recently placed my first order(s) with Meyer's and checked the box to receive the free meal maker special. I did this on two separate orders. This is such a fantastic idea! My husband, my children, and myself have specifically ordered more egg layers, as well as broilers for this exact...
Has anyone had any experience with the "Leann's Adopt Me Bargain" offered by Meyer hatchery? What types of chicks did you receive? Was it all chickens? Did you get straight run, if not what was the ration of pullets/cockerels? Was it a good bargain with a good assortment? Would you do it again?
I've posted a few threads before about this guy. He came in a batch of golden comets I purchased that were suppose to be pullets. I didn't want a roster, but he's really amazing so far. He's a solid orange/brown color (the white you see is the down feathers), he has one black tip wing feather, a...
Does anybody have an idea what breed this is? It with with the "assorted bantams". Also, if I can ask this topic here, why are this ones feather feet always so dirty? Any advice to keep them nice? My other feather feet chickens don't look like that.
