Wow thank you so much for that. Can we feed them store bought eggs because we have no more of their eggs? This is their second molt and they had not started laying at all during their last one. Will this last all the way till winter starts (October/November for florida) ?
Hey everybody
Recently one of my chickens died, we dont know why, we assume it was because she was eggbound. The day she died all of my other chickens stopped laying. I assumed this was normal because things were different in their coop. Yesterday I noticed that one of my chickens has lots of...
So i am in love with my guinea fowls. We are moving here in a month or two and cannot house her until we have finished the move. I live in jacksonville fl, does anybody know of a place or someone that could babysit them while we move?
hey guys my father is planning to get rid of our guinea fowl. I really don’t like the idea of that, we have both bonded. The main reason he wants her gone is the noise. But I have read if me and the guinea were closer the noise would go down. Is that true? And would it be the same if I wasn’t...
To be more specific about that topic, i know 18 weeks is when you switch them over to layer feed, but some chickens are different like my marans and Brahma, they started laying at 27 weeks which i assume is because of the large size of the Brahma and the marans lay such dark eggs, but is it all...
Yeah all of these are right I agree with Happy Henny, that is what I did with my first btach of chicks. I would fill it up a little with warm water hold them there and take a wet paper towl and LIGHTLY dab the poop off. Then keep them separate from other chicks, like two with eachother, because...
Again sorry for the late response, had lots to do. I dont really have anything to compare her weight to, i never really started to pick her up until recently when i put her in the coop. And she recently started getting some fuzzy feathers on her, is this molting, or what. And when is laying...
I am in Jacksonville FL, no the weather rarely ever changes except for like two and a half months between November and February. She is 26 weeks she is not molting that i know of but she might here in the next few weeks. I have seen feathers around the run. Yes she loves to eat when i giver her...
HI guys the only chicken I have laying and has ever laid is my cuckoo maran. She started laying in august. She did start out laying every other day mainly in the afternoons. Now she hasnt laid in over a week. Is there something wrong is this normal.
Hey guys so one of four of my chickens has started two weeks ago, we have gotten 9-10 eggs so far. She always lays in the afternoon, so we get them every other day. Also she is laying very tiny eggs, she always has, i know they are like that and they get bigger, but when do they get bigger. The...
sorry for getting back so late, she is now 24 weeks going on 25 weeks. When she started getting her adult feathers is when she calmed down. She was a wild one when she had her brown feathers. I have also recently noticed her separating from the flock and going to a different corner of the run to...
Hey guys so i have a guinea with my flock. Recently i have noticed her taking her time to get around. When she was a keet she would scream when she was picked up or held. Now we have no problem touching her, petting her, picking her up, etc. Is there something wrong with her or is she just now...
Hey so i got up this morning and i found two small eggs on my run floor. When i first saw them i assumed they were just fart eggs from my Brahma. Now i am not sure what they are can anybody help me out?
LEMON BALM. you can either plant a whole lemon balm plant next to the coop of even take a few clippings from another lemon balm and just throw it in the coop and replace it every few days.
great chicken extremely nice to chickens it was raised with, can be a bully to other non familiar chickens. Definitely takes the queen position of the coop.
