Man I hate thieves, while checking for eggs discovered pumpkin stag missing and it was obvious from moved dirt the pen was picked up. So mad I can't see straight.

One of my gamefowl got in fight with another rooster and broke a small tip of the beak off. I know that on parrots they grow back if broke but I also know hatcheries cut beaks to stop cannibalism. I am afraid this will affect his free ranging if it does not grow back somewhat. It is not a large...

Ok I want to worm my freerangers before winter, but my dogs protect them and drink from the same water. My DW brought home Wazine and it can be used for swine also. Will the Wazine be harmful to my dogs or will it also worm them too? Both dogs and swine are mammals, I have been instructed before...

I am doing my happy dance this morning. One of the 4 bantam white laced red Cornish pullets crowed this morning. I thought the suspect was a cockerel from the beginning but the feed store assured me it was a hen. I had been looking for a roo with no luck and had made a order to Ideal for...

Just bought a 50# bag of crimped oats for my birds. Can anybody tell me if you can feed them dry to your flock or must they be cooked? I was feeding cooked oatmeal for them in the morning but that was getting to expensive.

I let my chickens and ducks out yesterday and they attacked a patch of prickly pear cactus. I was chasing them to get them to put down what they had. Mine do not have the large spines but the invisible spines that are really irritating. Is it safe to let them eat them? They really went nuts, I...

I have three different bloodlines of the same breed hatching on the 23rd. What is a good way to tell them apart. I do not want to inject anything into the shell to afraid I might stick the chick or break the egg. They are all BB Red gamefowl so they all should look like chipmunks. I think they...

Ok I have this game hen that has been great. We put 7 silkie eggs under her and she hatched 5. It has been a week and she has done perfect. But today I picked her up to check the chicks and she has plucked her feathers on her lower abdomen. I assume to get her warm skin closer to the chicks...
