That's interesting about the upgrading program.

Thank you for the book suggestions. Maybe the more expensive ones could be a birthday present. Hmmmm...

Ok, so I'm getting the whole "you are not allowed" message, but I DO have 20 posts! Waaaaaaah!

I don't have a lot of experience here, having only hatched a few eggs. I may even be misunderstanding the question, however, what I got from my one hatching experience was black, blue, and splash birds but my eggs really didn't look significantly different from one another.

Is that considered a partridge? I don't know a lot of colors yet. Very cool looking bird!

How precious! Of course, bunnies always are...

Now that is a first class farm dog!

Oh dear lord! I could only look at one picture.

Surely there are more funny chicken pictures out there? I clicked on this thread expecting dozens! Here is my little flock going "Oh crap!" during horsey playtime.

Love that blue!

You can gently pluck by hand when they release their coat periodically, no tools needed. If you are impatient like me, you can also use scissors. Just go very slow and careful. Skin and wool feel the exact same when you are holding scissors!

The more space, the better. A small cage won't kill them, but they won't be happy either. Check out www.rabbit.org

We bought two Mammoth geldings to guard our two goats. Overkill for the coyotes, no issue there. Unfortunately, the donkeys could care less about coons and chickens and what coons like to do with chickens. :(

Purina Equine Sr. is amazing. If he has trouble with hay, you can soak cubes in water and make a mush for him. How is his dental health? That's a biggy with the old guys.

I hope this is ok to post here. I am seriously thinking about adding Teeswater sheep to the farm. Is anyone selling any?

If nothing else, they help keep flies off that part of the body.

Any good resources to look into to help with the to bee or not to bee question? My husband has always been interested in beekeeping.

(I'm brand new, both to BYC and to chicken ownership, so please forgive me and point me in the right direction if I'm not posting this question in the right place.) It may be too early to tell, I don't know, but can anyone hazard a guess as to the color of my Cochin chicks? The possible parents...

I thought I saw a bit of dried blood on one of my 2 day old's backsides. There was also a bit of scab or dried poo (total noob here - I don't know which it was) so I pulled it away and found blood underneath. Is this just a boo boo or is the blood coming out its rear and a sign of illness? I...
