We have a few beautiful big boys that need homes. These were from a barnyard mix. Daddy was a light Brahma and momma is believed to be a black copper marans. The photos do not do them justice. They are beautiful birds. We are just outside Greensboro NC.

Nooooooo! If it crows, it goes. =( We are in a neighborhood that doesn’t technically allow chickens, but the HOA has been inactive for some time and has not been enforcing anything for years. Where we are, nobody will even know we have them, unless i stick a roo out there.

I think you are right. the Southern States uses Ideal who does carry that color.

The Frizzle got us. We have been three years without birds and she found this in the bantam tank at TSC. Now we have 7 bitties in a box...

My wife and I loved the coloring on this little girl (yes, please be a little girl) at the local farm store out of the mixed bantam tank. Her feathers are coming in a beautiful color but i can't for the life of me figure out what she is. any thoughts?

Hello everyone. We moved to NC a year ago. We came from Nashville where we had six girls. The people who purchased our home wanted to keep them so we left them behind. We couldn't keep them in the temporary apartment with the cats and dog anyway We just did a hatching project for the 2nd...

Here is my shipping crate brooder. The lid is a $5 piece of 3/8" plastic and two $.50 door hinges from the Habitat Homestore. the roosts are crape myrtle branches - sturdy and really smooth bark.

So we have had to integrate new birds several times over the past two years. If you can achieve as many of the following as possible, it will ease it a bit: >Make sure they are as close to the same size as you can. With older birds, we have found this to be as important or even more so than age...

So we lost 2 young pullets to an opossum the first night out in their temporary coop. I have been setting traps since and have caught 4 juvenile opossums so far, one of which is most likely the perpetrator that squeezed under the run wall in a low spot. My questions are, how many opossums are...

Fill the bucket with sand and then add water. It will fill all the cracks between the grains of sand. That is as heavy as you can get with those two media choices. =) Post Script: I guess I was a bit late with that one. On a side note, marshmallows make great opossum bait.

Only certain breeds are game and will fight like that. Unless you specifically bought gamebirds from a cockfighter, I seriously doubt that would be a problem. Now making Chicken Tetrazini out of them? That's another thing all together.

We have a few roos from a hatching project at my daughter's school. One is a gold laced polish and one is a beautiful bantam cochin frizzle. Before we take them to live on a friend's farm, I thought we would offer them out here if anyone was in need. I am hoping to trade for some hatching eggs...

mine are going strong but haven't started turning yet.

So sorry to hear that.

We put an egg under our Cochin and she has been setting pretty well but yesterday she got off the nest for her daily eat, drink and stretch. Well, she got back on the wrong nest and we aren't sure how long but the egg felt cool. Luckily it was one of the 75 degree days. The egg had just shy of a...
