Kuntrygirl. I did a double take when I saw your picture. I thought someone had posted a picture of my boys. Look exactly the same..dumb question coming. Are they IndiaBlue? Do they have black shoulder pattern? When my boys were born- hatched I had two cocks. One was an IndiaBlue that...
Last weekI had a bad fall and have been flat on my back. I was standing on a cracked feed bucket late plugging in an extra light for my baby peas. Bucket collapsed. So did I. I have help tending to the barn. Good help but not as good as when I keep a watchful eye on my babies. I have to...
Amy of west knoll. That boy is spectacular! I never saw one like this. Does he have a name for his color? What about his lady friend. What is her description or do you say variety or kind? Any idea as to what their crossing will produce? Sorry for so many questions. So many of mine are...
I'm new here and still not sure about etiquette in proper posting. Hope it is ok to chime in. I am absolutely hooked on reading the posts from you guys. When I saw the pictures, I thought it was my birds. I have a hen that looks exactly like her ...same for the boy. Last year, someone in my...
Yoda> Just have to ask. Do you sell your babies are do you raise all of these and sell or place them as adults. I had a couple of years of raising babies (not that many, maybe 12) and then another year of raising babies and all of a sudden we were covered in feathers :) so I sold some of my...
Thanks, I understand better. My neighbor has a brooder box for pigeons that he isn't using rite now and offered to loan it to me. I am now trying to figure out if I can put it in one of the horse stalls and put all of my peababies in there together. They could go in the box for heat or out if...
Is there a brand? Do they produce the heat as well as regulate it? I looked at brooder heat source thermostatically controlled but don't know anything about brands or types or any thing that would help me choose which would be best for my needs. I have 4 large wooden 3x4 made of plywood boxes...
Hi Fellow PeaFonders!!! How's that for a term to describe us that are pea crazy? I have home made brooder boxes made out of 3/4 in plywood and are 3x4 and are 3 feet deep or tall with a 1/2 " plywood top with a cut out will with small gauge wire for ventilation. (and viewing)
I am using...
Kathy: Don't know what my computer is doing. I have tried to reply and it acts up and I lose my post. One more time. Thanks for the list of meds. I don't have Flagyl on hand but will get some. This I usually get from the vet. The other thing is Corid. I do have some Sulmet. I guess I have...
Hello
One of the oldest baby peas is standing under the light while the rest of its siblings are resting away from it. These chicks were hatched in an incubator one at a time as the eggs were gathered daily and placed in it to hatch. They have been doing extremely well until I moved the...
Hi there: I am in Tupelo MS and am interested in knowing more about your Sebastapol geese. I am new to the forum. Not new to chickens. I have a hodge podge of chickens. Mostly silkie crosses and don't know my chicken breeds well enough to say what else. Frizzle, frazzles...I have some that...
