I am desperately seeking dutch bantams. This site seems to have them but not right now. I was wondering if anyone knows the breeder or hatchery where PP gets their dutches. What is their live ship rate, and minimum order? Any one pleased or not with PP orders? TYIA JPB

The sum total of my gun experience is going to the pistol range with my Dad for several years between the ages of 11 and 15. Then in my twenties, I went out in the desert and shot gasoline bombs, cars, t.v.s ect, with various weapons my favorite being my .223. Obviously I can't use that in...

Very Graphic!!! Supervised free ranging NOT enough!!!! During supervised free ranging, fox came from nowhere and did this! Fox left hungry, birds herded back to run, counted, this girl found in fallen over trash can behind coop. My question, skin is starting to dry around edges. Flushed with...

Is the date on the bottom of your feed bags the date of manufacture or the best if used by date? How long is the feed good for, after the printed date? I ask because, in February, I bought a bag of Flock Raiser and my chickens started showing signs of illness and feed consumption dropped and...

I just saw this on CNN this morning. This BO chicken walks a road, rides in a Semi, is at a diner, a bonfire and rides a train.SO cute! It's a spot for auto ins. but they don't even mention that until the end. Hope every one gets a chance to see it! Edit;sp

Top pic is washed out, second is edited to show proper color. This is from a six yr old who does this, cecals and regular poops. She was eating until today. Her crop is almost empty and now I feel a squishy bag like area between her legs. She has been an irregular layer for a while and it's been...

My hen has been looking thinner lately, has been having weird green poop, solid but now liquid! The only things I see her eat are BOSS and corn. It's been too cold to stand outside all day to see if she eats the flock raiser or not. I'm going to bring her inside this eve. What should I feed her...

My EE has been standing like a penguin for two days. I brought her inside last night. I did a vent exam, it felt kinda lumpy and I ran into a hard spot. her crop was full. She pooped normal. This morning her crop was empty, gave her breakfast. Can't tell from quart waterer if she is drinking...

I brought a 9 month old hen inside two days ago for a laceration on her back. She is a flighty scared bird, has been since birth. I wanted to let her go back to her flock today so I put a cross strap saddle on her and took her out. Everyone is going by giving her the "where have you been" peck...

This wound is mostly covered by wing in normal position. The size is between a nickel and a quarter Yesterday i flushed with peroxide, there is an open pocket under the skin. Then I packed with triple antibiotic and covered with non stick pad and wrapped her loosely with vet wrap for the...

I have recently started new bag of Purina flock raiser, new bag of cracked corn and cleaned and re bedded coop with pine shavings. I saw a little of this poop, just thought somebody ate something weird. Even though it is very cold here, my chickens go out daily. This morning, I noticed this poop...

One of my BO's looks like she is developing water belly. Up until 2 days ago she was laying beautiful eggs. While my son and I were trying to decide whether to drain her, she got really flighty and fought. She had some watery poop and then one that seemed decidedly eggy. We were doing this at...

There are no bird vets near me, I live in Emmett MI. I don't like the normal notion of just kill it. Is there anyone near me that could help me fix/rehabilitate my boy? He is full grown so leg is getting worse. In spite of his limping and pain he still gets it on with hens and the other two roos...

I have now run across two chickens who stop laying, become droopy and listless, look depressed, have their heads hunkered down and are gasping for air like they are drowning! If you tip a bird with these symptoms forward so that their head is lower than there feet, fluids just pour out of them...

I have tried for a month to splint his leg, can't tell if it's slipped tendon, a break or what. I hate that he is suffering, is there something more I could try before having to snap his neck?!!! His name is Skittles, he's a bantam and his white leghorn brother Popcorn misses his company...
