Hi, I'm not sure I'm in the correct category - sorry if I should have tried somewhere else! :) We have a mixed flock with only two roosters. We have Black Copper Maran hens that were covered by our Blue Cochin. These pullets are now about 3 months old. Can anyone tell me, once they start...

Thank you for your time! There were two broody hens. We moved the one out last week as she started laying again, and just left the one who was still keeping the babies close. We've never seen her bothering any of them... The area is quite large, it was our peacock pen last year. We're in...

We have 6-week old chicks, about 14 in a pen with their momma hens. On 3 of 14 we have noticed small lessons or bumps that look similar to warts. We cannot get any fluid out of them. They are not on their faces or legs, but back/wing or above tail. Just 1-2 bumps per bird. No other symptoms.

Hi, this is our first time using an incubator. We are nearing the end of the period, and hope to start hearing little pips any day now. However, for the first week or so, we continued to add eggs, not realizing that there was supposed to be a lock down at the very end. We have some that may...

Hi. We have a Peahen who escaped the aviary she shares with one Peacock sometime this afternoon. No one saw her escape, and we can't find her anywhere. We do see where she found a weak spot in the enclosure and messed around with it until she could fit through. She laid two eggs last week (we...
