    Braveheart and I need your help.

    Braveheart was one of the weaker chicks that needed help hatching last week. He was smaller than everyone else and he tottered on his stubby little legs and was often knocked down by the stampeding batch. I was going to let nature take its course but Braveheart had such a will to live. Each...

    Stupid Questions Thread

    @oldhenlikesdogs did you notice any infertility after he was penned up for a long time? My hens just don't need the harassment this time of year so I hope to keep him incarcerated until spring.

    Badly broken leg Muscovy

    I am so glad it healed. Your little duckling has a zest for life and I am sure he will make the best of it, stiff leg and all. I bet you will hardly notice his leg once he gets to swim. Thanks for the update. I hope you keep us updated.

    if I buy a microscope can I see those tiny mites? also when can I redose with Eprinex?

    Did you go to the link that @ivan3 suggested? There they talk of sarcophic mites. If that's what your chickens have then they will be next to impossible to see even with a microscope because those are burrowing mites which live under the skin. Ivan's link gives great advice.

    5 DAY EARLY CHICK

    Did your duckling make it? How accurate was your thermometer? The only time I had a premature hatch was when my temperature was too high. If the yolk sac has not been absorbed you have to try to keep the chick in its membrane until it has. The fact you saw blood indicates that the blood...

     Ginkgo fruit

    I read that eating fruit will halt egg production. I am not familiar with Ginkgo fruit. Apparently too much acidity is not good.

    Questions about my new quail

    Japanese quail reach sexual maturity at five to six weeks of age. Is Nugget laying eggs yet? You can also supplement their food with mealworms....they will love you for it.

    Getting my hen to eat after injury

    Try some live mealworms....no hen can resist those. Put "Mealworms" in the search bar and you can read about how to grow your own. Your chickens will thank you for it.

    Off balance/Dizzy Chick?

    How is your chick? Hopefully it recovered. Just because you see them eating doesn't mean they are processing their food. I had a similar situation with a baby turkey. It just wasn't getting enough nutrition to function properly. Dizziness in people can be caused by inner ear problems....I...

    Need quail housing advice

    If you are happy with the rabbit hutches why not just brainstorm ways of keeping the birds from flying out. I am not sure what your rabbit hutch looks like but ours has a lid that flips open like a suitcase. If I didn't want something to fly out of the cage as I open it I would cover it with a...
