    The khaki-Campbell duck Thread !!!!!!!!

    I'd be VERY surprised if those were not both males. See how Duckbro is starting to get darker feathering on his back at his rump?

    The infamous bra-cubator!

    Having gotten the short end of the stick in, erm, THAT department, I don't think I'd stop at duck eggs. What is bigger than a goose egg?

    What breed of polish? Hen or Rooster?

    How old is he? Not that it changes anything, it's still a cock. :P I just wanted to compare him to some Polish that I am trying to sex.

    What gender are these

    The second one "could" be a pullet (I'd still be surprised). He/she has far more comb development than ANY of my adult girls, but the crest is pretty rounded. Where did you get them?

    Pathetic Polish Roo

    He was an only chicken when she got him. She has other birds, but he's in quarantine. There's some confusion as to how long it has been since he's been with other birds. The fellow told my sister he'd had the roo for two or three weeks, that they got some hens when they got him, but that they...

    What gender are these

    How old are they? The first one is most definitely a cockerel. The second is looking pretty cockerel-like too, but my guess would depend on age.

    Pathetic Polish Roo

    Yeah, this was my thinking too. "He's likely just scared stiff"...but then he started crowing. I've never seen a scared/stressed bird announce its presence by crowing. This is all just so baffling to me. Nothing really adds up to any of the diseases that I know or have had experience. Bugs...

    Pathetic Polish Roo

    Thank you for your reply. This was my initial thought, but he seems to have good strength in his legs. He kicks and can free them when restrained. He can use his feet to scratch his face. I really hope this is all that it is. She's completely paranoid about exposing her existing flock to...

    Pathetic Polish Roo

    My sister, who is very new to chickens, went and picked up a Polish rooster that she had found in the classifieds. She had seen pictures of the bird previously, but when she went to get him it was dark and he was sleeping. They transferred him from cage to crate and she did not really look him...

    The infamous bra-cubator!

    Couldn't you have chosen something with a shorter incubation period? lol

    The infamous bra-cubator!

    It's just as it sounds, NorthFLChick, it's hatching eggs via body heat inside your brasierre (alongside your unmentionables). I think you can get in trouble here for asking for THOSE kind of photos. LOL

    Help please?

    I'm not sure if you are talking about the same "clicking sound" that I have experienced, but whenever I have very newly hatched chicks their lung sounds are a bit "clicky". I asked my vet , who is also my sister, and she said this was likely just from their lungs being filled with air for the...

    Does temperature and/or humidity impact the sex of your chick?

    My first hatch, 9 out of 10 were cockerels.

    Silkie thread!

    It looks like scaly mites.

    How to keep large barrel of water for the chickens sanitized?

    x2 Chlorine will generally evaporate out in 24 hours in an open system. In a closed system, it should stay put.

    How many chickens do you need

    You think I could tell my husband that the other 60+ are just in case something happens to "these two"? LOL

    How many chickens do you need

    Two would be alright, provided that they are both hens.

    Fisher? aka fisher cat?

    They're primarily nocturnal, but will hunt during the day if hungry.
