    Blue Slate Hen X Heritage Bronze Tom

    I just hatched three of my turkey eggs. I had six of them, however the other three didn't make it unfortunatly. I was wondering what I should be expecting from a heritage bronze tom, and a blue slate hen. One came out blue slate, and two a bronze looking color. Is it just random? Or sexlinked? I...

    3-4 Month Old Serama Hen/Roo?

    I've been told this is definitely a serama hen, and then I have been told it looks more like a roo. I swear It squatted for me today which is why I started to question it! He was sold to me as a roo, and he does have a bigger comb than the other one that he came with, but they're from different...

    Chicks dying right before hatch/after internal pip

    This is my second batch of chicks that have died right before hatch. There was about 15 eggs in both hatches, however both times the majority of them weren't my eggs which made me feel better. Barred bantam cochins. The first hatch I didnt have much hope for, 15 out of 36 eggs started...

    URGENT RESPATORY ISSUE? MUCUS/DROWSY

    My beloved hen sharron has been acting funny. Today is DAY 3. I thought it was just the heat.. then I thought it was potential egg binding because she ISNT EATING OR DRINKING and had some REALLY RUNNY DROPPINGS . I felt around her abdomen and there's not sign of egg. Today as I was about to feed...

    Lockdown: Eggs are moving but they're not full.

    Okay. This is my first time hatching eggs. These are either a golden 300 crossed with a khaki Campbell drake or pure Khaki. I have a feeling it's the cross. Last time both eggs had died before hatch. This time I have 2 good eggs, the only 2 I put in, alive and well. Tomorrow is lock down...

    Polish Frizzle Chick Colors

    I have a splash Polish rooster. He's in the pen with all of the girls, but I only incubate the Polish eggs. It seems they're the only ones fertile anyway. I'm getting some really cool looking chicks but they're all different looking. My hens are silver laced, golden laced, and black but the...

    Mature Quail with Crooked Neck

    Yesterday I found one of my Jumbo Courtnix Quail with her head in the corner of the pen. She was not stuck, just puffed up with her head down. I figured she was dying so I put her in a box, brought her inside and let her be so she could be comfortable. Well, 7 hours later we checked on her...

    Polish Silkie Cross

    I have a smooth polish rooster, Frizzled polish rooster, smooth silkies, Frizzled silkies, Frizzled satins and smooth satins. If I breed a Polish rooster to the silkie hens, would it result in a satin? Or is there a reason people breed them to cochins? I'm trying to figure out a good way to get...

    Are my birds sick?

    None of my birds have been showing signs of illness. I have never lost a chick, and I have had a 100% hatch rate until today. Today I had 3 eggs quit on me, a quail who was perfectly fine this morning die around 5pm, and a chick just stared at me and died in my hands. 2 of the eggs were from...

    Dead Eggs? Blood Ring? Or am I just worrying too much?

    I have two duck eggs in the incubator right now, they're supposed to hatch on the 26th, I think I put them in on 3/29? I just candled them and it looks like they have somewhat of a blood ring. I've never incubated ducks, only chickens, but I've also never lost an egg besides those that weren't...

    Frizzle or smooth?

    I believe this is a frizzle, but I want a second opinion. It's a Polish chick, roo is frizzled, hens are smooth. The chick is only about 4 days old.

    Can a frizzled Silkie be bred with another frizzled silkie?

    I am well aware that you can not breed normal frizzled chicken with other frizzled chickens. But what about frizzled silkies? Or sizzles? Would their feathers still be messed up and brittle since they don't really have any true feathers? I have one polish frizzle rooster with all of the normal...

    Is this fertile or not? Saddle air cell?

    Okay, I've been incubating a lot of eggs here lately. I'm having my third hatch tomorrow. So far I have had a 100% hatch rate. I just started incubating a different hen's eggs as well and it's just.. it's not working out well. Previously all 4 of her eggs hatched great and I had no problems at...

    What would you call this polish?

    I just got some new polish chickens today. 5 hens and a rooster. I can't tell what type of rooster this is. He's beautiful. The hens are buff laced and golden laced. I'm not sure if he's a mix or what. He's got an iridescent black tail.

    ***URGENT*** Bowed Legged Duckling

    Our little pekin duckling was outside today and we noticed he's not walking as good as the other one. He's got bowed legs and Pigeon feet. I think it's a niacin deficiency. Has anyone else had this problem? Any ideas how to fix it? He's only about 4-5 weeks old. I'm not going to cull him. He...

    Duck breed?

    I've recently acquired two little ducklings. Actually it was yesterday when I was going to get more feed. How can you say no to their little faces. I got a khaki Campbell and my mom got a Pekin. We're both keeping one in our rooms so they're more social. Hopefully we get a Drake. But thats not...
