    Questions regarding mites

    Here's hoping this is the right forum for this. While I have yet to see anything on my birds during my weekly sneak out with a flashlight and look close excursions, I wanted to get some information and a search overloaded my eyeballs. I know Sevin is a commonly used treatment. If one was to...

I got to make three circles, each one about 4-5" across. Two cross each other at the top and bottom while the third encircles...

    How hard is it to raise . . .

    a baby dove or pigeon from egg to adulthood? My only true experience with either of these birds is the "Hey, look! It's a dove / pigeon" when seeing them in the yard or such.

    Things to ponder

    Why is it called a hot water heater? If the water is already hot, why do we need to heat it? Why is it called tuna fish? We don't say hamburger cow, ham pig, or chicken bird.

    WTB About two dozen leg bands...

    For adult chickens and the same for adult bobwhites. Color is unimportant though it would be nice if each size was the same color (one color for chicken, another color for quail). Don't even have to be numbered and if they are, they definitely do not have to be sequential. I can PayPal. If you...

    Chicken Roosts - Shapes, Sizes, and Placement

    Okay, been working on my chicken coop and I am down to some of the interior areas. I have seen where square roost rods are better than round one and was thinking about using those. This leads to a few questions. Which is best in everyone's opinion: round or square? If I go with square ones, do...

    Hello from Bastrop, TX

    Hello everyone, I was digging around the 'Net looking for some plans for an incubator and came across this site. After spending a few hours reading posts, I decided that it would probably be a good idea to join up in case I have any questions when it comes to starting a flock of some sort of...
