    Walking funny and mouth breathing, Help!

    Mom brought one of the 1 year old Americana girls in tonight. She kicked her out of the next box but noticed she wasn't walking right, she doesn't have good balance, almost like she were drunk. Also, her crop is empty. Currently she is in the house sitting back on her hind end with her head...

    Muffin Tin Omelet

    This is a great recipe for on the go omelets! You can eat them right away or place them in a plastic baggy and put them in the fridge. During a hectic morning you can microwave them and add a slice of toast for a good fast breakfast. They also freeze well! Grab - a 12 hole muffin tin - a...

    A guy I know has a duck, not sure what breed it is, but I am pretty sure it is an adult. Anyways, the duck is the only animal he has on 8 acres and he wants to get a friend for it so he is thinking about adopting a 3 week old chick we have the bird rehab center I work at. Is this a good idea...

    Growing back feathers

    Does anyone here know any good tips, tricks, techniques, or feed supplements that could help with re-growing feathers? Our roo did quite a number on a few of our girls and we would love any help in getting their feathers back.

    Post your best summer Iced Tea recipe

    I love summer and it always calls for nice cold beverages. I don't want to be constantly drinking sodas, and water, while it is refreshing can get a little tired. Thus I have been delving into the wonderful world of teas. Yesterday I tried something I have been wanting to do for a very long...

    Chokecherry jelly recipe?

    Anyone here have a good recipe for chokecherry jelly? We tried to make some a few years back but it didn't work, made great syrup though. We get so many of them that it is a shame to let them just sit there but we don't know what to do with them.

    Railroad ties...safe?

    We are starting work on a new chicken coop and a question popped up. Is it safe to use railroad ties? Since the ties are soaked in creosote is it toxic to the birds? The ones we are using are about 10-12 years old so I would think that would make them old enough to not be a concern but I'm...

    Rooster bleeding from spur

    Okay, so our RIR roo, Morgan, needed his spurs trimmed, so dad used the baked potato method and it worked like a dream. However, later today dad was walking across the yard with Morgan's nemesis, the green bucket ! So of course, Morgan came and attacked it and in the process damaged one spur...

    Under the category of pests....little brothers.

    Argh!!! Stupid brother!!!! How many times have I told him not to throw things when the chickens are around, I dunno, maybe a million!! And what does he do, throws a rock right into the middle of them. We now have one hen who isn't using her left leg at all, two ticked off parents, one ticked...

    Anybody like Caterpillars?

    I have found the last few ones of the season! I have three, one is in a chrysalis, one is getting ready for it and the other is still growing. They are nice little guys, quite, easy to keep and I am pretty sure they are a type of swallowtail. Annie is on the left and Mini Me is on the right...

    The mystery hen

    When we got this little girl she was in a big tub of straight run chicks from a hatchery. She is about 17-19 weeks old and hasn't started laying yet. She is smaller than the golden sex link hens we have, is a good flyer and is kind of nervous, she doesn't like people. I think she is some kind...
