    4 White Brd Silkie Chicks

    Four Fall hatch white bearded Silkie chicks. I'm pretty positive one is female and one is male, the other two are any body's guess. They have all of the desired Silkie characteristics. One has very good feet, the other three have some deficiencies in toe spacing. I was going to keep the one with...

    Misuse of Antibiotics

    Part of managing our flocks is determining the proper time and proper treatment for a bird or birds that are down. I am a stickler about misuse of antibiotics. It frustrates me to read that once again someone put a bird on antibiotics for no really valid reason or assumed that because its an...

    6+ Brd Paint Silkie Hatching Eggs

    I'm over run, big time. No more space so no more hatching here for a couple of months. Instead of wasting the eggs I've decided to list them. The cockeral in the picture is one hatched here from my paints. They have all had five toes, black skin (black to paint has pigment holes at hatch) which...

    28 Days Ago

    One of my females was not there at the coop at lock up and I would have sworn before a court of law that my girls were done laying for the year. I called my dogs and had them help me finding the missing female. We found her. On a nest of one dozen eggs. I moved her, gathered her eggs...

    Why we always quarantine

    I know for some of you putting a new bird or birds in to quarantine is second nature. You always do it. But there are those out there who don't know they should or have the attitude that "it can't happen to me." I received a panicked email from a lady yesterday about how her birds were sick...

    Bearded White Silkie Males-TN

    I have several young white bearded males to rehome. They either didn't make it in to the breeding pens because of a fault or because I flat out ran out of females to put with him. Some have wonky combs or feet that are not just right but these are easy fixes with the right female. Several have...

    Bearded White Silkie Males

    I have several white males to rehome. Its not unusual to end up with way more males than can be used in a breeding program. Most have a fault that I don't want to deal with in the breeding program, most are minor and easily corrected with the right female. Some have more filling out to do since...

    Guineas and the black snake

    This is to illustrate that Guineas will not kill a large snake. They won't even harass it. The other night it was time for close up. My Guineas live in a large building. The feed is in the front corner and then there is the rest of the building. The routine is I go to their feed bin and begin...

    Our Deer Herd, sort of

    We have about seven deer living on our 20 acres. Some have been here for years and this year I'm seeing babies born last year. The twist is that they have become so accustomed to my comings and goings, my talking to the birds they have lost their fear of me. Used to be they would head for the...

    Guinea Grief

    A couple of days ago I realized that one of my girls was hurt. I examined her but found nothing external but I put her up any way to see if forcing her to be quiet would help. It didn't. She died today. I went down to check on her earlier and found that she had lost whatever battle she was...

    Dads make better Mothers

    My wiggy opaline Guinea decided she was going to have it her way and made herself a nest under our porch. I figured close to the house, close to the dogs, I'll just leave her. Fast forward to Sunday, by 10 AM five were arranged around her while she stayed on the nest. Several hours went by...
