Howdy, I am selling bantam cockerels, with a small re-homing fee of $5 (to ensure a good home)!
They are lovely cockerels. Hand-raised loves snuggles and being held. Some are D´Uccle Serama mixes and some are Serama D´Uccle Plymouth Rock bantams. All have feathered feet, some have muffs. They...
I have a hen who is three years old. Her name is Buddy and she is a lot like a rooster. She was wing-dropping an old (8) hen the other day. I have 2 roosters too. Any ideas on why she acts like a rooster when other roosters are around?

I am adopting a 5-year-old male Cinnamon Cockatiel this Sunday. I am knowledgeable on them but can anyone tell me a little more? I am excited! I have all the supplies and attention he could need, :)
I volunteer at a local garden with chickens. I care for the flock every Wednesday. Today when I came there was a hen laying on the ground. I thought she was sunbathing, but when I reached to pet her she barely flinched. These hens are cautious and shy. I immediately knew she was hurt/sick.One of...
