I have a lavender Tom and a black Tom. I have a lavender hen, a bronze hen and a bourbon red hen.
the Bronze and Red were my first turkeys about a year and a half older than the others and hand raised, as far as I could tell they hate the toms are believe I am the dominant as they always squat...
I have been watching my babies grow trying to figure out the breeds but two have them have me stumped. Which one of these breeds have tufts on their heads?
I noticed some runny poop on her feathers but when I picked her up saw what I believe is a prolapse. I cut away her feathers and wiped the area. I couldn’t get the white/black stuff off and I wasn’t sure if it was hurting her so I stopped. I also can’t currently soak her but in water as it just...
I bought 4 chicks from Runnings, they get their chicks from Hoover’s. I bought 4 rare assorted because 6.99 a piece was a lot for not really rare breeds. I was just hoping to get a blue egg layer. Then 2 are Ameraucana’s because NY makes me get 6.
Any help would be appreciate, thank you.
There was a post on FB with this beautiful rooster. I and a few others commented on wanting eggs from this bird in the Spring. They only comment once to the first poster saying “okay”
They posted in both a New York poultry page and a Texas page. I believe they might be a scammer based on...
So I’m new to breeding turkeys but my older females don’t want anything to do with my males that I hatched this summer.
my older two females are my pets, they were my first babies I hatched and were my only turkeys for a whole year until I hatched more eggs this summer and got three males. The...
Hello, I need help with sexing. I was just going to wait until they matured because I have definitely male and I was sure one female and the other I was unsure about, unfortunately, a Turkey knocked over a pallet and killed my hen.
I am really upset about it but now I have the male and the...
I know from my first hatched turkey last Spring that it could take up to 4 months to tell the gender of a poult, but I’m hoping for maybe some guesses.
My two turkeys from last year turned out to be two females and I’m in a desperate need of a male because my two bug me all the time. Lol so I...
Last Fall my chicken coop was destroyed by a tornado. I put my purebreds together in the barn until I could get another coop for them. I decided to hatch some of the eggs from the mixes. The eggs are from my Appenzeller hen and either my Orpington or Cream legbar rooster.
This chick came out...
So I put the egg laid today in the incubator but curious if anyone had a Spitzhauben cross And what does it look like? The only roosters I have in the pen are a mauve Orpington and a cream Legbar so I think it’s gonna be an interesting cross.
I’m sorry for the bad picture but its so difficult with such a thick shell. Anyway, last year was my first year with chickens and turkeys I learned a lot but still have problems…like this one.
The Turkeys just started laying the beginning of December, which is winter here in New York. They are...
My friend in Arizona was cutting some limbs from a tree when these guys fell from a hidden nest. She quickly put them back but im curious to what they might be. Im guessing a dove? But the black skin and white nails are throwing me off.
I went to take a picture of my about 2 week old cream legbar and noticed its crop was bulging, I had just gave them water not to long before the picture was taken, I know they store it, but this seems pretty big. I also think its a roo.
