Hi. What has been the protein level you've been giving them? Electrolites? I have a 3.5 month old who's been suffering from wry neck...I'm giving her suppliments of poly-vi-sol (childrens liquid vitamins-by Enfamil) and trying to boost her protein intake along with some additional grains. I...

Definately not black spanish..... I'd say that they are either Narragansetts or a mix of sorts.... here are 3 links to pictures of a black spanish, broad breasted bronze and also a narragansett...

I've been told that heritage breeds take longer to mature to get to the appropriate weight for butcher....at least 9 months. I have 14 month old bourbon red hens that look like they'd butcher out as a large chicken....lol. Probably 10-15# max... but the Toms are a bit larger.....certainly not...

Pics of my feathered 'kids'.

Adorable! Lovvvvvvve pictures. Thank you for sharing your babies.

I just love babies! lol. Did you say you had 12 chick eggs under that hen also? The double cuteness are chickies...what breed are they? I haven't had any variation on my bourbon reds....they all look like the bourbon reds....ha. If that one in the first picture on this last post is a...

Hi! How exciting! This is my first year of hatchlings from my crew that I got last Spring....and within the last two weeks I've gotten little ones too (not the silkies...got them a month ago from the farmstore and I keep them with the babies to teach them how to eat and drink). Here are four...

Hi. I'm not a turkey expert by anymeans but I've raised them for a couple of years now....so my advice is only based on my own experience for what that's worth...lol. First off, putting them in a large dog crate sounds a bit confined for two large birds....especially if you want them to...

Thank you all for your responses and your 'love'.... appreciate it very much so. I have been searching some of the other posts and it seems that people say to try alternatives... one being getting large turkeys..... I've got 8 of them and the hawks still come. Also read that getting a...

Quote: No, wing is not gone. It was a hawk though....gotta be. Today TWICE they tried to get another.... I saw a bunch of feathers in the back range yard which look like they came from one of my white guineas...... and just not 10 minutes ago I saw a hawk fly by my office window and I went...

Hi. I went out this afternoon to see feathers scattered all over the back field area.....looked and saw one of my light brahmas dead . Below is a graphic pic of her backside......just wondering if a hawk would do this? Or do you think it could have been another animal? It doesn't appear that...
