In the latest food scandal to emerge in China, customers are being duped by fake eggs made out of resin, starch and pigments.
Its kinda hard to tell but the area that looks bare there because its a bit bulbous. Bout the size of an egg lending credence to the internal layer idea.
Shes been pale and lethargic for a while now, We brought her inside to deworm her but it didn't seem like that was it. Then I noticed an egg sized lump that wasn't hard and it wasn't liquid. We gave her a bath in case she was egg bound but afterwards it felt fleshy. We took some pics, I dunno if...
sorry if its been answered before, Will Serama use a tall cage? I was thinking a ferret cage with ramps and whatnot. The one I have love their little roost.
I started to get some itchiness after eating a bunch of hard boiled quail eggs. After that I mostly used them for french toast or baking and never had any issues.
So is the song like their "I'm distressed" noise? Sometimes I hold them for a minute just to hear them its so cute. But I try not to stress them too much.
We make money by pretending we would have bought the quail we eat, that's alotta bang for your buck. Well, we actually make a decent amount selling breeding quads or egg laying trios with an occasional aviary type grabbing 20-40. But it probably wouldn't cover gas once you take out the feed and...
Gotta wait till they are mature. Once you hear crows you can squeeze foam out of males (but some just aren't producing yet) and I found that there's always a submissive male who isn't foaming. Once you start seeing eggs the female's cloaca is generally wider and their bellies are fatter. Like...
Call Farmer's Feed & Supply http://www.yelp.com/biz/farmers-feed-and-supply-gilroy in Gilroy, they usually have something newly hatched though I'm not sure about bantams. We have a few bantams for sale but they're a week or 2 old.
Has anyone been to the Escalon auction http://escalonlivestockmarket.com/ for birds lately? I saw a post from 2010 saying it was good but its been a while.

My wife(chiqita) said I had to share this.
Here's a decent video on the black soldier fly.
and a good write-up on the benefits

The video says you can feed them veggies but really they can eat almost anything. Veggies, bird poo, mammal poo, spoiled feed, there's not a...
Oh and one of your best allies is the carpenter ant. Maggots don't last long when they're in the area. With the trash bins it might be better to let the ants get in if you notice the flies breeding in there.
They don't like worm juice and the liquid from black soldier flies as well. You can get empty 2 liters and make traps out of them too with a bit of water and something stinky. I find the thing that attracts them the most is the rotting corpses of other flies. They are also attracted to moist...
