I have a question.Back in maybe march,I bought some chicks.two roosters,and 5 pullets.I already know 3 pullets are not ready to lay.I vent checked them,and my Rir and Barred have red vents,and they are extremely larger then the other pullets vents.
Yesterday I found a egg in the yard.Might 1...
Before you even think about getting a rabbit,you should probably think about how much they cost every year,and any basic needs.
Rabbits need to be dewormed once a year,it is required you do that but not everyone does.They also need 2 vaccination shots every 4 months.It is also VERY required...
Ok,
a family member of mine has to give her two 5 month old pekins away,so I decided to take them.I have ducks already though.6 adults (1 drake 5 hens),and then I have two teens about the same age as the other teens,(1 drake 1 hen).
From what i heard the ducks are sweet,but her drake has...

Ok,
Its been awhile since I have been on,but I have a New Hampshire red cockeral.His name is Zues,and he is very,very sweet.
I plan on building a coop just for him and a few girls to tend to.I know they mature fastly,but when could he tend to girls on his very own?Without any help?

Okay so far my two new ducklings have made it to 4 months old!
And have really grown and are seeming to trying to mate!But, Peepers doesn't get that in order to mate,the male must grab her neck,LOL!
Okay,let me get to what I wanna know.And these past few months the other eight adult ducks...
This is normal.
Roosters start crowing at this time.Yes,I know,extremely earlier.
If he was alerting anyone,he would cackle or make a weird squawking sound.
I strongly hope not!
Ok,here is the story.
I was outside playing with my birds.Falcon,a barred rock had jumped onto a roost right by his/her twin.And guess what,he dropped his wing and acted very dominant!I have had roosters do that (But its normal for them!).I do have a domiant BO who has...
The only ones that are agressive are the ones from feed stores, (Their not pure).But,most generally the ones from a hatchery are pure and are the more docile ones,and not near as agressive.
I just added mines when they were two months.I have their grow out pen for intergration.A month later I add them.Now they have growna nd are at their size.
