Well, I did it again... I let someone talk me into taking home more birds. This time it's Chukar! This'll be my first time raising them so any help is very much appreciated.
What I've learned so far:
1. They'll kill (and cannibalize) if they feel like it.
2. They can't be raised on the ground...
Hey all, a few weeks ago my Porcelain d'Uccle got herself in a sticky situation. She flew into a fly strip. Okay I'll give her a quick bath and it'll be gone, right? Wrong. After rubbing it with vegetable oil (which turned out to be a mistake, thanks google), washing with dawn, and rinsing it...
Howdy, everyone! I'm going to be away from my flock a lot this August and I would like to take some more security measures to protect them. Which means putting netting over their run. Their run is 30'x25' but a massive Boxelder tree takes up half the run as a natural netting of sorts. I was just...
Howdy everyone,
these past few weeks have been pretty cold and at the time being there's no end in sight. Last year, mid summer, we switched from tray waterers to a cup system. Now it's late January and we use a water heater base to set it on, which keeps the bucket part ice free... But the cups...
Hi everyone,
on Monday I went out to the coop to let everyone out as per usual, and I was greeted by horrified cackling and a plethora of dead bodies. Unfortunately 4 hens and two roosters perished, and left one Black Australorp pullet clutching desperately on to life. But it was actually to the...

Hey y'all! I got these 3 (along with 3 EEs) about 2 months ago back in August.
Anyway, these three were labeled as Cuckoo Marans pullets. Knowing TSC, I should've known better. So I was hoping you guys could help me figure out their true breed.

Hello y'all,
I'm wondering if any of you guys know of places to buy baby chicks in Western New York. I'm on the hunt for Silver Laced Wyandottes. :lol: I saw some at my local TSC in Saturday but they have since sold out. :( I know, I should've gotten them right then and there. :rolleyes: Any...

Cowboy jumped from rooftop to rooftop looking for his archenemy.

Hi everyone! So 7 weeks ago we got 6 Leghorns and 2 Black Aussies, but the other day I noticed one Leghorn cheeping like its lonely, but it was surrounded by all the other chicks! And she keeps on doing it. Any ideas? Thank you!
Hello BYC team, me again! So I was wondering why can't I upload any photos? I just get an error message saying: the uploaded file ran out of extensions, or something along those lines. I did all that it said to do. Thanks for your help!
I've been wanting to tell this story for a long time and just never got around to it! So here it goes!
So I'll start out with pebbles, we got pebbles from a breeder in Corfu, NY in 2011. We were originally going to get 6 RIRs but they only had 5, so they gave us a mystery chick. They told us it...
Hi everyone, anybody who wants to chat... come on down! If you want to know about my flock or my family's roadtrip from WNY to SC to Fl to TN. Just ask!
