I started using TSC also. I started using Flock Raiser since I have ducks also. One feed is a lot cheaper than several feeds. I also offer oyster shells & grit on the side that they can have when they want it. That have been very helpful here. I always stand up when I know something is...
My last hatch my Turken was the broody. She killed two by breaking the eggs. I got there in time to see that she was working on a third. I took the others and put them in the bators. Good luck with the rest of your babies.
The feed supply person loaded cattle feed into my truck. When I asked about it & repeated "Chicken Layer Pellets", he said' "these will do the same thing." I'm sorry but that rubbed all over me wrong. I told him that he may have other people that use cattle feed but I don't. I'm very specific...
I have several in my flock that are my favorites. Bantam Cochin, golden laced polish, barred rock, D'Uccle, brahma. My least favorite in my flock was a golden laced polish roo. He has a new home now. My Turkens, Orpington, JGs, white rock, & Australorps prefer to be left alone but will come...
I have 7 so far. (1) buff laced, (2) blue/buff laced (I think that is the right color), and (4) gold laced. I'll have to check with Lisa to make sure of that one color.
I use the saddles for my girls. I got mine on eBay. I can't remember the sellers name but I can check & let you know. I've bought from 3 sellers & she has the best ones. They do work. I take them off to wash them & they go right back on just as soon as they are dry. She also makes some...
Cragrats on your babies. My Brahmas are on day 21 & I don't even have a pip. They are in the incubator rocking. I don't know if anyone else does this or not but I've found that it works for me. I have a plastic pair of tweezers that I dip in warm water & very gently drop a single drop of...

Well...let me try that again. Anybody know how to add pics from an iPad 3? I tried pressing the picture button. It says embedding pic but it won't show up. Hummmm?
Thank you for your imput. I don't know the genders yet. They are 2 weeks old and are getting their beautiful big bird feathers, although, they are still in the ugly stage. Some of them I could guess what they are just by demeanor (maybe). It will be my luck I will have 18 roos on my hands:0
How much do ya'll sale your Cochin chicks for? I have some one coming tomorrow to look at mine. I have not said a price yet. I have silver laced bantam Cochins and blue and buff standards. They are pet quality.
He's not show. Unless we're talking about him showing off for the ladies;). He's just a big beautiful Australorp. But you're right about the price. I have no clue. Would $10 or $15 sound more like it? I don't usually sell my birds. When I know that they are gaping to good homes, I just let...
That's what I was thinking. I was going to sell the roos big roo for $25. The younger mixes for $10. My hens are all pure breeds. I will probably ask $20. They are all very healthy and big with beautiful feathers. I may ask more for the ones that I want to keep but will part with if the...
How much are roos going for now? I have someone coming tomorrow to buy some and I have no clue what to charge. I have a one year old Australorp, one year old Golden Polish, 4 month old 1 Silver Cuckoo Maran/Australorp, 4 month old Buff Comet/Australorp, 4 month old bantam OEGB/WRL Cornish...
