Hello! We are looking for cochin bantam hatching eggs from birds that are any other colors besides white or black (have them already :)). We are especially hoping for red and buff frizzles. If you have eggs available and are willing to ship them (or have us pick them up within driving distance...

I am hoping to buy some tolbunt Polish eggs to hatch as pets. I have also been searching locally for frizzled Polish as well. If anybody might be able to help me please let me know Tamara

Percy is about 8 months old now and has never been quite right. A small buff girl. We got her from a very reputable silkie breeder, and for free, because her beak was twisted. In fact her whole body was slightly off kilter. There has always had a slight kink in her neck and seemed to be pulling...

Thanks for all the help everyone! I'v been going some research and making homemade feed doesnt seem too hard. I plan on using this recipe: •2 parts whole corn •3 parts soft white wheat •3 parts hard red winter wheat •1 part hulled barley •1 part oat groats •2 part sunflower seeds •½ part...

We just checked. Weve been feeding them Green Mountain Grains organic layer pellets with a protein of 16%. First ingredient was corn, second was soy. Probably the problem. We like that its organic, so making home grown food, im guessing, is our only other option?

Sorry for the confusion! I just meant when I feed them at least once a day, that I refilled the big feed holder at least once a day everyday. They have food at all times, and we also give them food scraps just about every day. But perhaps there just isnt enough protien in the food itself to keep...

My girls are on the older end....about 5 years. The parasites on the other hand might be the problem...Ill take a look at them. I know I had problems 2 months ago and I didnt even think of that 'til now. I thought the problem was done when I covered everything in Diatmaceous earth. It seemed to...

I have 10 girls in a nicley sized chicken coop who keep picking on eatother. They only pick off the ends of the chest feathers on eachother so the leads me to believe that this isnt a coop size issue, but a deficiency matter. They also go outside everyday, and are given organic chicken feed at...

I would love to see pictures of some of your birds when you put them up. We might be interested

Im going to be in contact with them. I would love to take a couple girls home and be able to smoosh them I will also put the word out to everyone I know!

I just brought my bantam brahma girl to the vet yesterday. I posted a few weeks ago about her having a prolapse. It was not a prolapse but a tumor all around her vent. I was told that surgery was not an option because after the tumor is removed there would not be enough skin left to suture her...

P.S. She has been going to the bathroom and you can see that its coming out at the very top, right of that bulge. You think there is an egg there? Oh my gawd, Im going to have to go in there, arent I? O_O

Thanks for all the help everybody! I did got a lot of that egg mess off since yesterday. I have soaked her many times since yesterday as well. After her bath last night we put some Prep H all over that mess. She has been eating and drinking well, thankfully. I gently tried to push that mass back...

This poor girl has been soaking in the tub most of the afternoon. I finally took her out and she is sitting next to the fireplace. This is not just poop obviously. I tried a stream on it, soaking, sponging it, and trying to pick at it and I dont know what is skin and what is yuck. As you can...

She died in my arms at 11:24 last night. She started to slightly breath through her mouth and convulse for a few seconds at a time. I was so scared for her. She did this three times and the last time she let out an awful shriek. The guilt I feel for her death hurts me physically. Oh, Maggie.

I gave her about half a 1 ml syringe of aspirin. It was one 81 mg aspirin dissolved as much as possible in 1/4 cup of water. She did make the swallowing gestures when I put it in her mouth. She is breathing, lays limp in my hands, but is moving her eyes behind closed lids, and twitching every so...

We went back and forth about it being one of the goats, too, but its too clean. Her skin wasnt really damaged, just defeathered. Even if she had a wound they picked at, that she developed after lunch because she was fine before then, she is in the area with a ditzy polish girl, and another...

I just posted in the turkey forum about a possible attack from two hens on my silkie girl. Her head is picked of feathers, she was bleeding near her ear, and is unresponsive. Is there anything I can do for her? Pain medicine? I just started a heating pad under her.

I just went to bring everyone in for the night and found my silkie, Maggie laying face down in the dirt. The back of her head was picked clean and she is unresponsive. She was bleeding near her ear but its stopped now. I have her in some towels covered up with me. I dont know what to do for her...

I kind of assumed this but I didnt think they would need to teach my bantam chochins they were boss I have a young polish girl and she is always wondering what the heck goosed her in the butt when she was just pecking at my garden
