New to ducks here. I went to go get feed... and you know the rest of the story. I came home with three little ducklings. I'm pretty sure the two black ones are Caguyas (solid black, and they don't have an upright stance), but I'm stumped on this little brown fellow. It was the most unique...

In February I got some packing peanuts with my Ideal order, I kept four of them. I'm pretty sure they are all roosters, but some of them look more like roosters than others. It doesn't really matter to me, but I am curious. These first two chicks are looking a little like a pullets. Their...

http://www.mthealthy.com/store/948458/product/BARGAIN3 Has anyone here ordered this? If so, what breeds did you get? Thanks!

I just ordered a few chicks from Ideal, and decided to get some Malays. They look interesting enough, were only like $3, and my Madagascar from them is wonderful, so I figured I'd give it a try. I'm not expecting quality, just interesting looking pets. The thing is, I'm not really finding...

Here's some pictures of my Madagascar Gamefowl and my Naked Neck. They are all about seven months old, so they still have a bit of maturing to do. The Madagascars are my favorites out of all my chickens. They are so bold and easy to handle, in fact I won my local 4-h chicken showmanship with...

These are 15 week old Madagascar Gamefowl. I ordered hens, but I'm thinking one might be a roo. "He" is bigger than the other one(which I'm fairly certain is a hen) and his comb turned red first. I actually don't mind a roo, so it's not a problem if he is, but I would like to know what people...

I have some pictures of my latest chicks I thought I'd share! They are from Ideal, and right now I have three Madagascar Games, a Modern Game, a Jersey Giant, and a Golden Laced Cochin. I had another Modern Game and another Madagascar game, but they were kind of off from the start and both died...

Got a few chicks out of the TSC bins. The first three were in there laying pullets bin and the last three are all bantams of (I think) the same breed. This one is called "Rainbow". She's much darker than the other yellow chick. She's got stripes down her back. This one is Kesha. She's...

Still don't know about these guys... they are four weeks old, and I only know the breed of one of them D:. Help me out? They are all bantams. This is Jenkinson, a buff brahma bantam. I'm thinking it MIGHT be a roo, but am not sure. Burke (black) and Harman (white), I'm thinking they are roos...

I posted these guys when I got them, almost two weeks ago, still not sure about the breeds. The pictures are from a few days ago, at around a week and a half. They are all bantams from TSCs "Assorted Bantam" bin. It's been rainy and nasty, so the pictures aren't amazing, let me know if you need...

I was at TSC to get some bedding and... Need I say more? So I ended up with 6 little "assorted bantams". I would like to know what they are, but I'm not very good at identifying babies. I apologize if the pictures are a bit grainy and the colors are off. I was in a hurry and the bathroom...

I think this would go on this board? Correct me if I'm wrong. Recently I started a blog about my mini farm (if you count a pair of goats and chickens as a farm? some do, some don't) http://theroosterscrow.tumblr.com/ I thought some of you may be interested. Although I haven't yet talked about my...

I was sharing these on another site and figured I'd post them here as well . These were fun to take: Golden Comet hen, Mozart Black Sumatra hen, Wronger Royal Palm tom... nameless xD Silkie hen, Fluffball White Crested Black Polish hen, Gayle Ancona hen, Marian Totally messed up...

Does it take for a turkey to reach full size? I'm worried about my poults over the winter...

IDK if introducing is the right word, because they've met before, but they don't get along. Basically I have 18 chickens. 7 are golden comet hens, very feisty. If they didn't lay I would think they were roos, lol. And then 10 eight week old chicks, and a two year old silkie roo. At the moment...

So... we got out chicks today. A golden sebright, 2 cochins, 3 polish (buff, black crested white, and I think a blue), 2 silkies (blue, white), and... these two. We got a random assortment and it turned out great! They gave us pretty much another of all the breeds we picked out (besides the...

I've always wanted a turkey... as a pet though. Thing is I'm having trouble finding out about them... Info?

So... we got more peeps! Or will get, come August. But... being unable to choose we get five chickens from the rare breed assortment. Has anyone else ever got this? Which breeds did you get? I know some of the breeds aren't very rare (ee, for example) but, whatever, I like the surprise. Pictures?

So, I went to TSC the day they got the chicks in and... I got the last 7. We were planning on 6, but it was silly to leave one. They are Golden Comets, and (surprisingly) all TSC had were pullets. Fine by me. Anyways, they are all doing good. They are loud, and eat everything in sight xD. Hear...

With most of my rodents it's recommended NOT to use pine or cedar, due to oils that cause respiratory infections. They are called phenols... could they harm chicks, too? I was a little surprised I couldn't find any posts on this... but I am a novice. Could I use aspen instead? I already keep...
