I got my friend some ducks from the Tractor Supply assorted duck bin and we are curious to what breed they are. We've been having kind of a debate between black runner mix, cayuga, or khaki campbells, but then we also don't know the gender so we don't know if they're a naturally iridescent breed...

So I bought all of my birds from straight runs because they are cheaper that way. I have 9 chickens, 2 ducks, 2 geese, and 6 guineas. My chickens ended up as 7 hens and 2 roos!(1 roo was bought specifically to be a roo and one came from a straight run). My ducks ended up to be a male and a...

So I have 7 chicken hens, at least 3 female guineas, a female khaki campbell duck, and a female goose. Ive read that thus breed of goose is an excellent egg layer and mother, and ive also read that guineas and this breed of chicken are horrible mothers. I was wondering if I wanted to hatch any...

So I have 6 guineas who I've recently released into the yard. Theyre 10 weeks old and since they were released 2 at a time, the obviously started roosting close to where the brooder is, which is about 5 feet from the stairs to my porch. Now 4 of the guineas are out and they have taken to...

I have 2 khaki campbells who are 10 weeks old and 8 weeks old. I'm unsure what gender, but I was hoping I had a male and female. Im thinking I have 2 drake though. My 10 week old doesn't make any noise, but all of the feathers are very dark brown, and there is a very noticeable iridescent green...

Hey guys, I don't know if this has already been done on here, but I'd like to start a mental health thread. This thread is for people to post stories of their mental health issues to let people know they are not alone, and for people to just help eachother out when in a rough spot. I only...

I have a Bourbon red turkey poult about 8 weeks old who recently snapped her humerus wing bone in half. Vet said she needs surgery or in the very least a handmade splint and set, but i cannot afford these services. She said if she doesn't get this she will not be able to fly again, her wing...

So I have 2 turkeys, 6 guineas, 2 ducks, 2 geese, and 9 chickens who i all love VERY much. I absolutely adore them and I dont want anything to happen to them. Recently, I've endured a fowl pox outbreak, bumblefoot, a snapped wing, a torn ligament, and a vitamin deficiency almost back to back...

I have 5 ayam cemanis that I need to rehome. 4 hens and a roo. The pullets are about 15 weeks old and the roo just turned 6 months. Roo is very protective and loving of his hens. All are solid black pure cemanis. Must go together, or at least in groups of 2. $65 each or $320 for everyone. I...

I have a baby turkey who broke her wing today, and I originally thought it was dislocated. Howeverz upon closer inspection I was able to see and feel both sides of the broken bone, which was completely in half right at the shoulder. I have it wrapped, but what else can I do for her? Vet said...

I have a baby turkey who has fowl pox with rather large bumps, so I took her out to spray her with Microcyn and she saw the dog and freaked out. She flapped frantically and I heard a strange snap, now she won't move that wing and she wasn't moving at all for a few minutes. She was just standing...

So I have a flock of 7 hens and 2 roos. One roo is a large Ayam Cemani, and the other a small rosecomb. The rosecomb was the dominant one. He would crow all day every day with his beautiful clear crow and he was always prancing around, but then I had an outbreak of fowl pox. I had to separate...

I have a turkey that has a few large bumps all over. One on its eye, on its neck, on its beak, and on its wing. They are hard but movable, and don't seem to cause any pain. I do have 4 chickens with fowl pox but they are quarantined away from the babies, and these bumps showed up after they were...

Thought you guys would enjoy our use for an old tub while we work on building their new coop

So I took my chicken to the vet today to get her seen about a large spreading bump on her eye, and the vet said it was fowl pox! I searched all of my other chickens when I got home and I think there are four in total with it. There is one with a large bump on her comb, one with a scrape on the...

My khaki cambell duckling recently made a running trek across some pointy gravel and got multiple cuts on the bottom of his feet. They didn't look bad, so inexperienced me didn't do anything about it. Now he has bumblefoot, and its entirely my fault. He doesn't seem in any pain and is still...

So I have 6 guineas that have grown all of their body and wing feathers. Where I bought them, all of the possible parents were on site and all were pure pearls. My little guineas have gotten most of their pearl-ing in now, but two of them have a few solid white feathers. One of them has the...

I have a plant thats actually quite invasive. It grows fast and in large amounts, has very long stems, small, round, velvety leaves, and grows small white flowers at the ends. On the bright side, my chickens LOVE it. I'm in Southeast Georgia. Anyone know what this is?

So I usually just crack a couple eggs into a bowl, add salt and mix before I pour into a pan to scramble, but eating the Jimmy Dean breakfast bowls has made me feel I'm missing out. The scrambled eggs in there are just so super fluffly and airy. Does anyone have any recipes or techniques to...

I live in the hot and humid Southeast Georgia. With all the rain and humidity upsurging lately, flies, gnats, and mosquitos have swarmed in. Watching my chickens today, the poor things are CONSTANTLY flicking their heads due to gnats absolutley swarming them. A few of them have tiny blood specks...
