Hi All,
My name is Diane and I live outside of San Antonio, TX. I presently have 2 Nigerian dwarf doelings. They are just wonderful. I've had cashmere goats in the past. And at one time I had some pygmies. I wanted something very small this time, so I could trim hooves and doctor them more...
I have silkie eggs in the bator and am trying to get everything set up for them. I was wondering if anyone has ever tried the nipple water system with their silkies. Can they even SEE the nipples?

I have 2 whites that I have been growing out for a year. How can I tell if they are boys or girls?
I could take a picture for you, but I don't know how to post it here.

My Red Bourbon hen hatched out 9
babies about a week or so ago. I did
lose one, but the rest are incredibly active
and feathering. The father is my Royal Palm
gobbler. Can anyone tell me what the babies
will look like as adults?

Came home from work today to find 9 baby poults
sitting around and under my BR hen.
There is still 1 egg left to hatch (if it will).
Only lost one baby. Looks like it got suffocated
or crushed by the mother. It's her first hatch.
I put the food and water closeby, so I hope
the babies figure it...
I would like to sanitize my styrofoam hovabator. I was thinking to us 1:10 bleach in a spray bottle and let it sit out in the sun.
What do you recommend?

I plan to worm my chickens and peacocks next week with liquid Safe Guard 3cc per 1 gallon of water for 3 days.
My 3 Runner girls drink from the same waterer. Will this medication harm them? If so, I will remove them from the
pen for 3 days to ensure they don't get any of the medication...
