Build a hoop coop it's easy to build, easy to stand in .pretty easy to move if you need to and nothing can get into it if you build it rite. I even took the basic idea of a hoop coop and built a shed for my lawn tractor and tools. I think I spent a day building and 100 bucks in materials.
Anyone have tips for getting east indie eggs to hatch my hen has laid three eggs I put them under a brooding showgirl one got smashed. I just candled them there is good vein development in the two remaining eggs. I heArd from one breeder they are hard to hatch and quit 3 days before they are...
My turkeys have all have ten times the personality of any other birds I've owned with the exception of parrots and id have to say they rank close to a parrot in personality. The five I've owned would follow me and all the members of our family around and our bourbon hen thought she was a guard...
They shipped the roosters trying to help your ducks arrive alive that's not cruel.raise and eat them before they crow. sell them for a buck to reptile store as snake food. No one wants The rooster chicks so they grind then up for chick food at some places as soon as they hatch. At least...

I was checking on my chicks today and one of the quail I bought from him has sprouted ruffled or frizzled feathers. The other one has normal smooth feathers. they are both housed in same brooder both fed on 30 % protein gamebird feed.

This hits the nail on the head the animals behavior returns to normal the videos I saw showed roosters being roosters. So if the rooster shows he doesn't care about being decrowed why would anyone assume he feels or is less that he was before the surgery
I have two turkey hens and live in a neighborhood but they are legal here. On some occasions mine are loud but mostly when I first got them they got quieter as time passed I believe they just needed to get used to the sights and sounds of new environment.other than that and when I first get...
No gophers around here i used cardboard as underlayment under the three koi ponds I built to protect the liners from rocks and roots worked great and is free
Look Up skippy pond filter almost the same premise I built and used three of them on way over stocked koi ponds
