    Uhoh. Abandoned serama chick.

    Forgive any errors- typing one handed while cuddling a teaspoon sized chick. One of our seramas laid eggs up in the loft somewhere, and we didn't realize it. One of the big girls went up and sat on them, hatching out two. One was malformed, and the other fell out of the loft. My husband found...

    Help with Acidosis in Goat

    One of our goats got in to the chicken food yesterday.. not really sure how much he ate, but he did get into it. Today he obviously has a stomach ache, diarrhea, and is moving like he doesn't feel so hot. We're waiting on a call from the vet now, but what kind of treatment is normally done for...

    Soap process question..

    I got "Soap and Other Obsessions" yesterday, and I'm on the goat milk chapter. Has anyone tested this? I believe her, but i just can't see how it's possible. Stir the oils as you slowly add the milk/lye solution. From here on it is just the same as you would do any of your soap recipes. Only...

    I'm getting some in the spring. Who has em? Did you start with a "starter kit" hive and gear? What were your challenges your first year? Did you get any honey the first year? Tell me stories!

    Well, booger, i've got egg eaters.

    Yep. I thought maybe they were moulting, but no. Caught one in the act yesterday. I locked her up, put eggs in the boxes, walked out for an hour, and they were gone when I came back. So it's not just one. Going to get golf balls today, and rigging up a darkening flap for the boxes. Any other...

    Wintering Seramas

    Ok, how hard is it to overwinter Seramas? I'm in Southern Indiana / KY, and it can get down to freezing in the late winter. The barn isn't insulated, but it's not open air either. Everyone seemed fine last year- even the bantams. They mostly stayed inside, but nobody froze. The Seramas i've...

    Help with poultrynet and p5 charger

    Premiere is closed, and I can't figure this out. I got the netting, the charger, a roll of wire, a power pack with cord to charger, and another cord to the charger terminating in alligator clamps so that I can hook the charger up to a car battery in an emergency. The instructions don't say how...

    Show me your ugly yards & coops

    I see so may pictures of idyllic scenes... green grass and rolling hills. Freshly painted and poop free coops. Then I go outside and look at my barn, and think to myself "I should have raised pigs instead." My crew is so messy. They don't roost on things that are supposed to be roosted on. They...

    Duck Tag (pics)

    Two of my black Runner drakes like to play tag. They'll wait by the fence, chatting away until you come close. Then they'll start reaching out to pull on your pants leg until you come in. They love to play tag, especially with my 10 year old It's not hostile at all.. if you stop, they'll stand...

    "Excuse me?"

    "Can I help you?" I love this little guy. He's so darned cute and full of himself. He has a girlfriend, but they're rarely ever together. Too bad, because I wanted some baby Chocolates.

    Chicken on Chicken. The only way to roost.

    Jane Jane, the Chocolate OEGB roo was caught using one of his luscious large lady Cochins as an oh-so-comfy roost. She doesn't seem to mind. My chickens are weird.

    I have some babes that I hatched out of lovely dark olive eggs that are ready to go. They're about 2 weeks old. Mom was an olive egg laying EE, dad was a blue cochin. They're clean legged. eta: they're free. I don't do it for money, i'm just a hatchaholic.

    BLUE Barred Rocks, Southern IN

    I have a roo and a hen that need a new home. There's nothing wrong with them, i'm just getting crowded They're young (I got the eggs from Halo in the Aussie fire relief egg auction) but the roo is starting to crow. They're really pretty and unusual.

    Dead roo- what happened?

    My big roo was in perfectly good health until last night. He's a big blue cochin, VERY sweet. Hubby went out to close up the barn last night, and he was dead in the middle of the barn floor. His legs were straight out from his body ( like standing on tippy toes and reaching for something), there...

    Soap Swap?

    I looked through the last couple of pages, but has anyone put together a home made soap swap?

    Random chicken pictures :)

    I was out with the telephoto lens the other day, so that I wouldn't disturb anyone Jane Jane, Chocolate OEGB Phineas Q. Cocksworth, my Serama boy One of the hatched Blue/Barred/Slpash Rocks from the Aussie egg auction. I think it's a boy, and he has no name yet. Amelia, and Baby...

    My Runners aren't very.. runner-y.

    I know, hatchery stock isn't up to par with breeder stock. I just expected them to LOOK like runners. Opinions? They almost look like Cayugas Seated, but I had another picture, so I threw it in

    How many geese can you fit in a baby pool? (Pics)

    Apparently, three at a time... The rest just wait their turn. The Odd Couple. They were brooded together, and they're still young enough to remain buddies. They're always together, with the Guinea hanging out on the side of the pool while Sushi is having a bath.

    Goose love.

    My Sebbies, being cute little mushyloves. One of them always wants to be in my lap getting loved. I have no idea what sex they are. They're about 3 months old. There's a brown chinese running with them too. I have a full grown female B.C, and her mate died last year. I got this little guy to...
