I'm making deviled eggs for Thanksgiving and I had thrown some of my EE eggs with my others in the pot for then deviled eggs. I just peeled them and noticed something really strange about the EE eggs and now I'm scared to eat them. I HAVE eaten the EE eggs before but this is the first time...
I'm doing my planing now for my spring orders and am having a hard time deciding where to go. Last year I ordered from Ideal and I think they do a fabu job. My problem is I ordered 10 silkes from them and STILL managed to end up with 8 roos! I know MPC sells sexed silkies but they go for $10...
We keep losing some of our chicks and we can't figure why. We were wondering if it was due to them eating the berries of the polk salad next to our yard, since some have been covered in the purple juice. I know after a certain amount of time they are considered poisonous but birds should be...
My silke had a NASTY boo-boo on her rump/hip. It was more than likely due to the males (who are ONLY a couple week older than her) trying to mate. She is one of the smallest which is why she probably got hurt and the other females have not. Any way, it looks almost like a diamond shape had...
We have some meat birds that we plan to butcher this week end. Here's the thing, two of them are seeming to have trouble walking. Now, I know they are prone to leg problems because of their size, but these birds feed was carefully monitored to ensure that wouldn't happen til we got to a point...
Ok so I have two chicks I hatched out around the 2nd feb. I can tell they are both girls. The daddy is a white rock roo, momma is either an RIR or a BO. Both girls have NO tail feathers. What is the deal with that???? I do believe that the BO is their mommy because the daddy has yellow...
I just can't seem to get any takers here on BYC on my Turken eggs, and I can't afford to keep incubating eggs that wont sell as hatching eggs and then trying to sell the chicks, when I can def get the money selling them as eating eggs. I was thinking of trying to sell some on ebay and was...
12 + Turken eggs for sale. Fertility has been good. Ready for shipping on Thursday. Paypal is [email protected] for the winner. I have a baby right now piped and about to hatch. I'll post a pic of him when he fluffs out.
Have have some chicks hatching and three of the babies came out black with whit dots on their heads. Mom is a black giant and dad is a white rock. Are they sex link?
If any of you are interested I started a group on Cafe mom for BYC'ers. I looked for one and surprised there were none. Admin's, if there is a problem with my having a group on Cafe Mom let me know and I will be happy to take it down. But I was thinking it might also draw more people here...

I have a pair of Muscovy's. They are around 5 months old. Both girls as there are no drake feathers. But I've noticed something when I got my shipment of ducklings in not too long ago. My baby ducks are close to 4 weeks old (Mostly runners) and are already starting to get their quack. My...
An Ameraucana and Turken? My husband and I were talking about trying to develop a Turken/Ameraucana cross and see what we get. Wouldn't it be cool to have a Turken with a beard that laid green/blue eggs? If anyone has any pic of this cross I would love to see it.
Our BO seems to be ready for motherhood. She's made herself a nest in the rubbermaid boxes we made into nest boxes. So A+ to her for doing like we wanted. She is only on one egg right now, but she seems to be doing just like she should. She was MIA til the hubby went out to feed the...
I got the call at 7:30 this morning and went to pick up my babies!! I must say I am really happy with how IDEAL handled the shipping. Not a single one DOA!!! All are happy and doing great. I will be posting a vid on my youtube channel of the babies. Give me about 2 hours and I'll have it up...
I have a chick I hatched that is about three and a half weeks old. He was born with the top half of his beak missing up to his nose. He is eating and drinking just fine. Has loads of energy and feathers are coming in great. He's super sweet and it seems the only issue he has as far as...
