    Found baby mice

    So yeah, I found baby mice. I don’t know how old they are, but they’re wiggling around a lot now that they’re in the warm truck. I’m just wondering if there’s anything I can feed them now, as I won’t be home for another 7 hours (I’m at work). I have a sandwich with peanut butter and bananas...

    Rooster breathing congested

    I have a rooster who is about 2 years old. He free ranges and loves to be around people. Today I noticed his breathing was off, he sounds congested. He is sometimes looking a bit puffed up and unhappy, but other than that he seems fine, eating, drinking as normal. Any ideas on what this could be?

    The Easy Garden account not working

    I tried to make an account on TheEasyGarden.com, but it hasn’t sent me a confirmation email so I can’t post, and I keep seeing this: And it’s not a problem with my email as far as I know, I tried 2 different ones. Sorry I wasn’t sure where to post this, but hopefully someone on BYC can help.

    Ameraucanas?

    Hey all, I have 8 Ameraucanas that I got as chicks last year and everyone thought they looked like Ameraucanas at the time, curious if everyone still thinks that? Also, how good of quality would they be considered? I know the blue cockerel and the splash aren’t very good because of their...

    How to get chickens to use a nipple drinker?

    I have a heated waterer with nipples that I had in the coop last year and for a few months this year, but I don’t think any of them are using it. I tried pecking the nipple part and they were all watching, and I’ve held one and tried to teach her how, but they just drink the water that dribbles...

    How to protect comb from frostbite?

    I’m not super worried about my EEs and Ameraucanas but my Speckled Sussex has a big floppy comb, I’ve heard of people putting Vaseline? Does that work?

    Do These (wild) Duck eggs Look Hatched or Eaten?

    I found a wild duck nest full of eggs, checked again in a few weeks and they were like this I’m not sure if they hatched? I haven’t seen the ducklings. Do they look like a predator got them? Thanks!

    Ameraucanas or EEs?

    I bought them as BBS Ameraucanas but I dunno. I think they might be Easter Eggers but I wanted someone to tell me I’m wrong.

    Broody only hatched one chick

    My broody hen was sitting on 6 eggs but 3 are dead and I don't think the other 2 are going to hatch, so now I have a single chick. There are some day old chicks near me that I could buy, but I'm scared because of the avian flu. Should I just let the mom raise the chick by itself, or try to get a...

    Lost some hens, now don't have enough for all my roosters

    A week or so ago I lost a few hens, including one of my favorites, a beautiful Speckled Sussex due to a predator. I am missing them so much :hit. So I now have 15 hens, and 3 roosters.

    Old Parrot Food to Chickens

    I don't use this brand for my budgie anymore, I'm assuming it would be ok for the chickens? Just as a treat instead of throwing it away.

    Allergies to Chicken Eggs... but not Duck?

    I know this is probably the wrong forum, but I didn't know where else to put it. So, someone we sell chicken eggs to's husband is allergic to chicken eggs, so they asked if we had any ducks (sadly no). I'm just wondering if anyone knows why he would be allergic to chicken and not duck eggs, and...

    Anyone bought from DC Heritage Poultry or Greendale Heritage Farm?

    Hi, I'm thinking about considering looking into getting Seramas, and these were the only places in Canada that I found any. Just wondering if anyone has got birds or hatching eggs (or knows someone who has) from them. https://www.dcheritagepoultry.com/bantam-cleaned-legged.html...
