    Ugly beautiful all the way! If I could afford to taken in anything and everything... I WOULD!!! My hubby gently reminds me that I can only adopt and save so many.... I have 38 babies right now. Yes, some of them are intended for dual purpose but I treat them all very tenderly until they can fend...

    cornish cross and RIR

    I've had 2 reds that were raised for the first month with 9 other reds, 5 ducks the same age, one duck 2 weeks older and 2 rocks. That looks a little crazy but the 2 reds are now babysitting duck #7 only 1 week old, if they are shipped or hatched together chances are they'll bond like mine :)...

    To wash or not to wash eggs?

    I have to admit I would be confused if my hubby and I hadn't done sooooo much research before starting our chicken co-op :) I DO NOT WASH MY EGGS! it removes the natural protective coating. I refrigerate IMMEDIATELY because I have customers that have never even seen a live chicken. I wipe...

    Strange and almost naked hatchling

    Feeling very reassured having asked quite a similar question earlier today... I've always enjoyed the 'runt' of the litter or "the ugly duckling' so to speak... my DH is the mailmans son so it always been an overused joke here... do you have a wolf in sheeps clothing?!?

    Help... my chick is naked... :(

    I need advice! My new chicks are now 28 days old. 14 of them look perfect however #15 looks like he's 'picked' on! He seems healthy but his feathers are not looking at all like his brothers! I'm praying he's not sick... :( this is a pic of his back which is basically bare like his head and neck...
