    What's going on here

    Hey I really like the dog box idea! My pen that I built does not have any landscaping in it so there is no bushes for them to go under. They lay their eggs on the ground but will they sit on them out in the rain? For now I put a big barrel on its side and put some straw in it and put the eggs...

    What's going on here

    I finished my outside pen for my 1 male and 2 female blues, they are a little over two years old. The pen is 12x26, 10 feet high. Every thing was great, the male was breeding and everone was getting along. Now all of a sudden one of the females will not stop harassing the other one. She...

    I need HELP!

    They were 8 months old when I got them and their a little over 2 years old now. I had to keep them in a coop with an outdooor run because I have a border collie who would chase and kill them.

    I need HELP!

    I just read something on the internet about soaking corn in wine and getting them drunk! It is suppose to make them easier to catch. What do you think?

    I need HELP!

    No kidding I chased them for over 5 hours in that bush and finally they figured out that they could fly in the trees. I did put up that screened tent but I have to figure out how to close it up when (IF) they ever go in. It is hard to sneak up on them because of all the noise you make walking in...

    Peacocks & Pheasants

    Can peacocks and pheasants live together? I'm building a 12x20 avairy and have 3 peacocks and want to add a pair of golden pheasants. I'm using 2inch flight netting on top, is that safe for pheasants. I have not predator problems.

    Mini pig gone hog wild

    I have a 11 month old mini pot belly pig. She is so sweet but when she comes into heat she goes crazy. Jumping up on your leg, biting, crying and wont settle down. I can afford to have her spayed and I wont get rid of her. I am wondering if there is a natural remedy to give her to calm her down...

    Aviary is really coming along....

    Hows work going on your aviary. Got it done yet. I am waiting for the pictures. I think I might need to re-design mine and make it bigger. Originally it was to be 12x20 but I like your idea of keeping different breed all together. As I have it right now everybody is in differnt pens. I guess it...
