I bought 3 supposed Barnvelder Chicks, and one now looks like THIS! I am sure it's not a Barnvelder, but I don't recognize it for what it may be. It should be pure, as the eggs it came from were from a breeder. I don't know the person though as my friend hatched the eggs. Its about 2.5 months...
Hi there, I have been experiencing a problem over and over with my last few hatches, and that is late death after internal pip.

Hi there, I am sort of freaking out here. I don't want all these geese to die. When candling, I know I had several viable geese. Have I waited too long to help? Do geese need extra help? I'm not sure what to do here. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I have 2 new birds I was given in a group, and I can identify the rest of the group, but not sure about these 2
My guess is that it's a Golden Copper Maran. But it really doesn't look like the female photos I've seen, just the Rooster ones. But it's at least 4 months old, and I haven't...
Hi there, my name is Shelley and I am in Northern Utah. I have seen this forum many times while searching for answers to my questions, and decided it was time to join.
I have had chickens a few times, but this time we are better set up.
