Someone came here to get a turkey and she had just been to a poultry sale. Someone at the sale was giving puppies away and there was 1 left and she took it to rehome. Well he was in a crate for the turkey so she took him out for my husband to hold while she found a box for the pup, well...
Her mother is a bay roan, out of a sorrel and by a blue roan. Her father is a silver dapple and so was his father. Don't know fathers's mothers color.
I'm guessing silver dapple. She was just a few hours old in the picture.
Update ... She is 4 months old and I guess definate silver...
I got a few Ringneck and and Red Golden Pheasants last year. They are laying well now. I am gathering them for incubating. How long should the pheasants lay if I don't let them sit?
After reading all the raves here we decided to try one. So we ordered one with forced air and an egg turner. It is running at 101, and that is using my digital tried and pretty true thermometer. Knowing forced air should run at 99.5 should I try to adjust it? I am a little confused with the...
Lilly Belle delivered twins on Easter, again. Last year, her first kidding, she delivered on Easter too. The little boy is doing great but the much smaller and weak little girl died minutes after birth. Here she is with her newborn son.
I got a call from a friend of my son's today who has a goat that has been walking on her knees for 3 days now. She says she is eating good but not moving around much. She has had this goat for about 1 year doesn't know much about goats yet. The goat is 2 years old and pasture fed and has been...
I am going to look at and hopefully bring home a donkey today. He is a typical standard size gray with a stripe over his shoulders, 1 year old gelding, not handled much. I am told he is friendly. He has good feet and weight, looks good in the pictures. I have have horses almost all my life...
They will suck your brains out. DH found this poor bird already dead beside the house today. I didn't know ticks were even out this time of year. Or that they could even do this to a bird. Well, guessing the tick was why it died.
These are my babies so far. They are SLBP, WCBP, Red Cochin bantum, EE/Cochen, and 1 Silver Spangled Hamburg. More are in the works. I'm having way too much fun.
I have 2 LG's set up side by side in the shower stall of the second bathroom. 1 is a new forced air with an egg turner that I use for incubating. The temp in it stays stable at 99.5. The second one is an older one that I added a fan to to make forced air and I use it for hatching. The temp...

This spring we hatched a GCM roo. I don't have a hen for him. So I was thinking about pairing him to a Black Copper or a Wheaten Marans hen or maybe both. What would the chicks look like from these, and would the eggs from the chicks still be a good dark colored? Thanks.

I see so many beautiful pictures on this site. The clearness and detail of many photos here are just stunning. What is your favorite SLR digital camera? And lens? I am planing to buy one and am really not sure what to get. I want one that can capture great detail and can stop movement...
This pullet was hatched from a blue egg bought as a 'real' Ameraucana. Is she a reconized color or is she an EE? I don't know what color to call her. Thanks.
