I am located in Honeoye Falls, NY. My flock consists of Black Ameraucanas, Blue Laced Red Wyandottes, and Blue Copper Marans. I have a thing for the blues and reds so I am currently hatching BLR Wyandottes, from my own flock, Blue Ameraucanas and Blue Copper Marans.

My beloved BLR Wyandotte Roo lost his eye. He is healthy otherwise, I am assuming someone pecked it out. He has an infection in the socket which I am flushing with a saline solution followed by some erthamyacin ointment. How long does this take to heal up? Will it require long term care to keep...
Thanks for the replies! I have cleaned and scoured the coop, sprayed it with Adams Flea and Tick and put down DE. Also sprayed my flock with Adams. I tried to cut off some of the eggs near their heads but realized after further inspection that I would really need to shave the whole bird as the...
My hens have stopped laying a week ago which I assumed may be due to the heat. The heat has since died down and still no eggs.We live in upstate NY. I noticed this morning that three girls out of eight have very small grayish white clumps which I assume are lice on the tops of their throats. I...
Beautiful blue laced red Wyandotte Rooster for sale to a good home. His father is from Buddy Henry's line and his mother is from Sue Osio's lines. Stunning guy with a very sweet personality.
So excited to be hatching! I have eight Blue Copper Maran eggs (which I have found nearly impossible to candle), 8 Blue Ameraucanas and 11 of my own Blue Laced Red Wyandottes. I probably have a few mutts mixed in there as I have a Black Australorp girl whom I cannot distinguish the difference in...
Too funny!! If I have some success here with these eggs, you may find sent your way:) Thanks so much for your advice. That is stunning roo you have as you avatar! What is he?
Thanks again!

I have a BLR Wyandotte rooster with a flock of two BLR hens, 1 black Australorp and 3 Easter Egger hens. I want to hatch the eggs of my BLR's. Do I have a good chance of fertile eggs with a ratio of one roo to 6 girls? Is there anything anyone suggests to increase chances of fertile eggs? We...
I am looking for the best place to buy electric poultry net fence with a charger without breaking the bank. Would buy it used if I could. Any recommendations?
Thanks!

I am looking for a used although in good working condition, electric poultry net fence and charger, preferably solar or battery powered. I have a flock for so a fence for that size would be great.
I have a flock that I have tried to raise as organic as possible and am looking for a good dewormer to follow along with that philosophy. I have not seen any evidence of worms yet did just lose a hen to a unknown cause and want to rule worms out. We do eat their eggs, which is a concern with...
Thanks for all the wonderful help. I will switch over to the plastic waterer with ACV asap. I have a water heater due to the cold temps, will the plastic be OK on the heater?? As far as biosecurity, my girls and guy are pretty quarantined, they have a very well built coop that is bird and rodent...
Three of my flock have been for certain. Pretty sure she was as I bought her from a breeder. I have three others who I hatched myself, who were not vaccinated as we have raised them organic and they appear to be healthy. She did pass away overnight, very sad:( I am worried for the rest of my...
I have a 8 month old Black Australorp hen who until a few days ago was the picture of health. I noticed two days ago she had a little bit of poop stuck to her butt, but she was eating and acting perfectly normal. Today, she is noticeably lethargic, her comb is pale and appears to have shrunk...

Thanks!
