Not sure yet. There's what I think are red mites or coop mites around the coop, and I was thinking of sprinkling seven dust or diatomaceous earth around in the little and stuff.
Ok, does anyone have any design plans for feed and water covers/shelters they'd be willing to share? Water keeps getting warm, and the feed wet during rain if I don't put it up. Thanks!
So I was wondering, if I have my varieties mixed, say blacks with whites, and I wanted to separate a pair to breed, how long should I wait before I incubate the eggs to insure the eggs are of a pure variety?
I'd like to start breeding, but I know next to nothing about the program involved...
I have a Bantam Cochin Rooster who really tries his hardest to mount the large-fowl hens, which makes for a very entertaining spectacle. I was wondering if the chicks would be bantam or large-fowl if fertilization actually takes place, or if it's even possible at all...
Any knowledge would be...
