Can someone tell me what this is? If it is scaly leg mites, what is the best treatment?
I have some new birds coming later this week and I know scaly leg mites are contagious. Do they have to come in contact with the affected birds to get it?
I have way too many roosters and need to move a few along. I have a couple buff/blue buff Brahma, a couple Isabel Brahma, and a couple black Ameraucana. All of these I got last year as hatching eggs from good breeders and had them shipped to me. I hatched and raised them. I am located in Marion...
I am looking for some hatching eggs, I’d really like to find some locally around western KY but may be okay with shipping. Looking for Brahma, Polish, pure ameraucana, seramas, Cochin
I am currently trying to hatch seramas for the first time, and they are shipped eggs as well. I have 9 out of 14 that are developing well on day 7. I have heard they are a lot harder to incubate/hatch than other chickens and that the chicks can be harder to care for as well. Curious what...
I have 2 sebright pullets, they were about 10 weeks old. I just noticed last night that one was acting weird. It didn’t run at all when I tried to pick it up, was pretty lethargic. It went to roost early and wasn’t interested in mealworm treats. I hadn’t noticed anything wrong up until this...
I bought this chick from a local breeder. She told me they were pure lavender Brahma and I’ve looked at her website and farm page and the adults look like pure brahmas. But a few people are telling me this one isn’t? Also, it’s about 6 weeks old and is feathering super slow! Anyone know why??
So I am on day 22 of my first hatch. I ordered 22 shipped eggs. Upon arrival I let them sit pointy end down in cartons for 48 hours. I then placed them into the incubator which had been running for 2 days. I did buy it used but was told it was only used once. It’s a nurture right 360. I placed...
So this is my first ever attempt and these are shipped eggs which all had detached air cells. My first egg finally just pipped and it’s at the complete wrong end! I am hatching upright in cartons because that’s what I was instructed to do for shipped eggs by many people. I don’t hear any thing...
This is my first time incubating eggs. I bought 22 and had them shipped. On day 18 I had 10 remaining that looked good and we’re moving. I locked down and haven’t opened it since. Today is day 21. I haven’t heard any cheeping and there are no pips. I’m getting a tad worried. They are Brahma eggs...
Hello,
I just ordered my first online eggs and there were 2 different kinds I wanted. The first batch shipped yesterday, the second batch is shipping today. However, I know that some of the eggs from the first batch were laid on the 22nd so they are the oldest eggs. Tracking is showing Monday...
