Hey everyone! Last night I went and picked up two small roos. It was only supposed to be one, but, you know, chicken math. Anyway, what the HECK could these be? Honestly never seen a mix like this. They are small, not banty size, more Cochin. I know they are mixed. What kind of bird is...

Hello everyone. I took a long hiatus after an almost total flock loss last year. Anyway, I was at TSC last year and was practically given this bird ($1 lol). I'm not even sure if I have the breed correct, a Toulouse maybe? At first I thought it was a boy, but now I don't know 😬 How do I...

After waiting ever so patiently for Winnie to hatch her eggs....I came home to 7 fully hatched, one stuck in it's shell, and one sadly didn't make it. It started to hatch, it's beak was out, but it was gone. 8 BABIES. 8 smol floofs 😍 All born on September 16 🥰🥰

Hello fellow duck mother's and father's. I have a few ducks, but I'm not sure what my girl, Winnie, is. This is the best picture I could get as she's sitting on eggs *yay* I have another one, who is black and white, but she's quick so no picture yet. TIA

This is the only place I know where I can post this and others will understand. I started my bird journey last year after my son wanted to bring home a chick his class had hatched from school. He wasn't chosen so we went to our local Bomgaars and that's where my journey began... Since then I...

Hi everyone. I have read articles but I'm confused because there are so many answers. Does it take shorter for bantam eggs to hatch? I recently had my first successful hatch with my broody girl, Pancake. My silkie, Black Devil, has decided it's her time to be a mama. She's has two regular...

Here's an update! One of Pancakes eggs has started to pip externally. Yay! I can also hear the chick chirping inside, yay! Egg 2/3 is chirping but I don't see any pips outside yet. Egg 3/3 I heard movement but no pips yet. I've read where it can take 12-18 hours for the chick to emerge, and...

I just candled Pancakes eggs for the first time and they all appear to be developing at the correct rate. I'm so excited - but Pancake is screaming at me because I keep checking on her like a worried mother LOL. These are the first ones we will both ever hatch. Fx that they all make it 😁

My tiny girl, Pancake, has decided it's her time to be broody. It's also my first time trying to hatch any sort of egg. Any tips would be appreciated. I've already separated her and the eggs to a safe place so she's not being stepped on by my other girls. Food and water is near with clean...

Went to TSC today in Vermillion SD. The girl sold me 4- 2 week old ducks for $1 each!! She said no one wanted to buy them because they were "getting too old". Who can say no to these precious babies!!

So this has been happening quite a bit. My poor duck(s) have been laying these massive eggs. Can't be good for them?? Anything I could do different to have "normal" size duck eggs? Tia

I'll get a better picture of her tomorrow. I was told she is a Cochin, but being new at this I'm not sure what she is. She's approx 6 months old and a little smaller than my full grown silkie. Any ideas on her? Thanks!

(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? I'm pretty new to the chicken world. I got my first girl last spring and it's blossomed from there. (2) How many chickens do you have right now? I have 12 chicks, 2 guineas, 9 ducks, and I believe 13 chickens (3) What breeds do you...

Hey everyone. So glad I found this site. I was wondering if you all could help me with my frizzle. Not exactly sure what type of frizzle it is, and also am having difficulty determining whether it's a hen or a roo. I named it Penelope but I think I may be causing it an identity crisis (lol)...
