    Rooster loves me but hates everyone else

    My Rooster, who is almost 2 that I hatched and raised myself, attacks EVERYONE except me. If anyone comes near me when I’m outside with them, he goes at them instantly. He jumps on my back and lays down, and also lays on my lap. He’s never hurt me. Why is he so mean to everyone else except me...

    Barred Rock Rooster in need of good, safe home. Martinsburg, WV.

    This isn’t something I want to do as I love this roo so much, but only having 3 hens and 2 roosters, it’s not working out since both males want to fight. :( I want him to go to a home that will keep him as a pet and not cull him or kill him, and perhaps I could visit him every now and then. He’s...

    5 week old chick temp

    I have 5, 5 week old chicks. They all have tons of feathers and are doing amazing. However they are getting too big for their brooder in the house. I was wondering will they be okay outside in their new coop? The lowest temp at night is going to be 66-62 this week and I was wondering, is that...

    Broody hen help!

    Thank you! I decided to let her keep the chick, and if she abandons then I’ll raise the one. If she decides to stop incubating the others I might try to finish the icubation process myself with my incubator. Thank you again!

    Broody hen help!

    My red bourbon turkey hen is broody and sitting 3 eggs. One egg is way farther along then the other 2. Egg 1. Is at about r12-15 days and the other eggs aren’t even at 5. What do I do since one will hatch earlier than the others? Will I have to self incubate the last 2? Do I take baby 1 from mom...

    Comment by 'BabySweetsTurkeys' in article 'A basic Q&A Turkey Primer'

    Turkeys are absolutely amazing. I have 2 myself as pets. I had more but we ended up with to many males and I had to give them to a local farm since all they wanted to do was fight. I have 2 Red Bourbons, a hen and a tom now. Toms name is Nikolai and hen is BabySweets. They are absolutely...

    Please help :(

    I have 5, day old chicks in my brooder. All are doing extremely well, however my one barred rock wants to keep chirping really loudly. They’re eating and drinking like normal and have a full crop. What could this be? I’m very worried. I checked for pasty butt and there wasn’t any and the temp is...

    Eye color?

    :jumpy:celebrate5 out of my 6 incubated eggs hatched yesterday and all babies are doing great. YAY! But I was wondering, will their eye color change? They’re dark brown right now and I was wondering if they’ll stay the same or turn yellow? Just a curious question. :) :wee

    When to move chicks from incubator to brooder

    I have 4 hatched chicks in my Magicfly Janoel 12 so there’s not much room. There running around and starting to peck at each other. They’re not fully dry but for the most part they are. There’s still one egg pipping and I don’t know what to do. Should I move them to the brooder so they have more...

    External pip but no hatch and pip at wrong end

    Thank you so much. Humidity is at 65-70% currently. I just added some more water to it since it went down a bit. I hope they all make it! Thank you again for your advice :)!

    External pip but no hatch and pip at wrong end

    Thank you. I’m honestly so stessed since I recently lost a hatch about a month ago. It’s just so worrisome because I’ve done everything I could throughout the hatch, temp and humidity wise. :(
