    Mites on babychicks

    Good morning! I separated my broody hen from my other flock 3 weeks ago when I gave her fertilized eggs.

    I was afraid of that... Should we trap and relocate or kill it?

    What is digging these holes?

    Does anyone know what kind of animal dig these? They are in the back of our pasture. The grass was getting very tall so my husband decided to mow it - to "help" our goats - we have only two :) These are newly made. My husband was walking and checking there 2 weeks ago and they weren't there...

    Pullets or Roos? And what breed?

    Thank you for your answer. I was thinking Serama too on Nr 3 - because she/he is so tiny compared to the other bantams. I will do that. Thanks

    Pullets or Roos? And what breed?

    Hello! My assorted Bantams from TSC turned 5 weeks now. Can you help me identifying if they are pullets or roos? My guess is that all are pullets. But what do you all think? And also what breed could Nr 2 and Nr 3 be? Sorry for the not so great picture of Nr 2 - she is usually very happy...

    Rooster culling advice - first time

    Thank you for your reply. I know... I'm not happy about that either because he is really pretty and was not that bad at first. But now he is getting out of control. The last time my daughter was attacked he scratched her about half inch underneath her eye and she was not even standing too close...

    Rooster culling advice - first time

    I’m going to cull my rooster due to being aggressive multiple times towards my little daughter and now me lately. And also with my ladies even though he has plenty of them. I posted him on craigslist for free but no takers so far. Yesterday when I closed their coop up I always check on them and...

    Suggestions for our Farm Name

    Hello all! :frow We’d like some help/input with naming our farm. We bought our little farm in 2015 and never really thought of naming it. But since my DH suggested to have a stand at our local farmer markets to sell the eggs of our ladies, I’ve been thinking about it quite a lot. I'm wanting to...
