The Blues contest
I am fascinated with any Poultry in the color range of BLUE. I have found BYC to be the best place in the world to learn about the different varieties of poultry, and I have others that are willing to enable my addiction to poultry also! Thank you!

I try to re-use things at home, so when we took the top of my deck down, I used the boards in my chicken house as a roost. I left a couple of large cup hooks on it, because they were handy for putting things on when I'm out there....I didnt think it was any big deal???
Tonight, I had already...
This is long, but I've had a problem this summer that has gotten steadily worse.
I live in the Sierra Foothills of Northern California. I have been in the same area for 10 years and never had this problem, now I either have one or two separate predator problems that I need help with?

Also, do some spurs just grow as nubs? Or if an adult rooster has nubs, does that mean someone...
Hmmm,
Maybe because I'm a glutton for punishment, or because I'm just browsing around looking for things on my wish list, I went to take a peek at Ovabid...and I cant find it, it's not there??? Anyone else see it?? I get some generic sales screen, no Ovabid site at all.....I tried direct...
Its day 16 in our incubators - my Mother in law is incubating 12 eggs that I ordered (I ordered way too many ) and she called this morning saying she can hear peeping inside some of our eggs?? Is this okay? She set them in the incubator on the same day as I set my own eggs - Friday, 3/14/08 -...
Well, after scouring the forums, pestering local people and others online, etc.. we have finally started our incubator! Its been an adventure, its full of eggs from ebay, BYC, and even a few from my own cuckoo marans! Boy, was I thrilled when my hubby caught on and bought the Hova bator 1588...
