    Color genetics experts wanna play?!

    Okay, this is more for fun and curiosity than any seriousness at all. I hatched these cuties out of my mixed breed flock. They are feathering out funky, are around four weeks old. At hatch two of them had bright red/orange heads - very striking. So I assumed they came out of my partridge or...

    Preparing Birds for Raw Feeding Dogs

    Okay, may be silly questions so I will apologize in advance. I hate scalding/plucking. Is it absolutely necessary immediately after killing the bird? Or can I kill, let it sit and go out of rigor and then scald/pluck? Would I need to scald or would the skin naturally loosen after rigor? Can I...

    Bantams...breed?

    It has been a long time since I posted here! Here are a few birds I just picked up from the bantam bin (dirty and ill-kept). I have no idea what this one is....? It has a straight comb. It has been a long time since I have had d'uccles and I think these are but not sure? They don't...

    White silkie trio

    Two pullets and one cockerel, seven months old. One pullet has a small single comb and the other a pink comb. No other faults. The cockerel is free with the pair. These are from show stock and are my culls. The boy is nice and gentle, no faults except he's a bit large and he does have more hard...

    Small silkie flock, from show stock

    Ok I have a lovely group of girls - five months old. I am almost 100% sure all are pullets. These are gorgeous, healthy, tame birds. I hatched these myself from eggs I bought here. I have decided I only want two colors at most and these were from an assorted group. I have a buff, blue partridge...

    Production Red hens attacking my dogs..

    I have six production red hens and am probably soon to go down to one. Is this a mean "breed" in general? They came from TSC and are last spring's pullets. I am sick of them attacking my dogs. They literally would have killed one this morning if I had not been there to intervene. I have...

    Big Apple Incubator?

    I am inheriting a Big Apple incubator tomorrow and wonder if anyone has any experience with these. It was used as a reptile incubator but the guy said it was purchased as a bird incubator. The link below looks exactly like it but is listed as a reptile incubator! The one I am getting is older...

    Shame on Ellen

    Ellen Degeneres is erroneously working to introduce a "vegan" dog food to her product lines. Dogs are not vegetarians and to feed them as such should be considered cruelty. Read the article here: http://healthypets.mercola.com/sites/healthypets/archive/2012/01/19/vegetarianism-for-pets.aspx...

    Indiana Question - Spring Mill ducks

    When I was a kid (not sure if they are still there) Spring Mill State Park had the most unusual-looking ducks I have ever seen. I have searched breeds to no avail. I do not have any images unfortunately, but if you have been to Spring Mill you have seen these ducks. They were shorter than the...

    Predator Protection...netting...turkeys?

    Okay to start off, this is a question pertaining more to my friend than myself. I have chickens AND chihuahuas, she has chihuahuas only. She has lost one to a coyote and since then spent a ton of money on fencing with roll bars? at the top. Now she is worried about hawks. We know one woman who...

    Weird ball thingy in egg??

    Okay please don't laugh as I am new to fresh eggs....but this thing was attached to the yolk where the spot/bullseye is located. The egg was only three days old at most. What is it? It felt like a thick bubble when I squished it with the fork. And it wouldn't break. Gross. It even has a face...
