    Post Phoenix Pics Please

    CrazyChick1977, no problem at all. I have three kids that show, they're 11, 11, and 12 and we truly enjoy it as a family activity. I have heart disease that keeps me from runnng and playing their sports with them, so it's incredibly nice to be able to have our animals to bond over. My son...

    Most shows require them to be 4-5 months old as the minimum. You'll likely not place as well as they more more mature birds in our experience, however, we still have kids in our APA/ABA Youth Club that show younger birds if for nothing more than the experience and fun. It gives them an...

    @Lauravonsmurf , that's interesting in focusing harder on your females. We've breed for show and show but we focus on our males first, I want prepotent males in as many breeding pens as I can have them. The males in your breeding pens will contribute more genetically than your females. Of...

    best hatchery for salmon faverolles?

    I hate to step on toes but I highly, highly recommend going with a local breeder over a hatchery. The Faverolles are some of the sweetest breeds and our girls are great layers and get along great. They seem to be one of our easiest breeds to integrate newcomers into. Our rooster is my...

    can i keep seramas with my flock

    I keep my Seramas separate, but I agree it depends on the flock. I do have a Bantam La Fleche that CONSTANTLY bred my big, plump RIR hen. I had to separate them so he'd give my Bantam La Fleche hen the attention I needed for fertile eggs. My Silver Ameraucana has tried to get to my Seramas...

    Bad broody hatch need advice for 3 little chicks

    Why can't you have the 4 week olds in a brooder and the 24 hour old in a separate brooder? Is it a space issue or just not having another heat lamp? You could leave the less than day old chicks in the incubator long enough to run out and pick up another heat lamp. For 3 chicks you'd only need...

    Tylan 50 didn't work please any suggestions

    How small are the chicks? Are they LF or Bantam? Tylan 50 injectable dosing for bantam is 1/4 cc and 1/2 cc for standard once a day for 5 days. Is there any swelling around their eyes, on their face? I always start with vitamins and electrolytes when they're ill. If you can get them...

    We love our Bantam La Fleche. The La Fleche are a rare French breed that can be difficult to find here in the US. They're shiny black plumage and unique V-comb make them stand out at the Shows. We show our BLF in every show we attend with great reception. I keep seeing reviews about how...

    PLEASE HELP ME!

    Did you have a vet diagnose the worms? You definitely should take a fecal sample back to your vet from this chick. The worms could be making him weak and vitamins won't fix that. Good luck
