    Help! Problem with Automatic Door- Ador1

    I thought about locking them up, but I would have to leave them in there all day. I have to leave Thursday afternoon. I have 100 + chickens and they are pretty tight in my chicken house. They free range during the day- no fences. But that is an option. No, I haven't tried to call them because I...

    Help! Problem with Automatic Door- Ador1

    Hope I'm I the right place for this, I haven't been on here in ages. I have a 2 year old Ador1 automatic door that is mounted internally and we have an external sensor. For the past month, it has been inconsistent with opening and closing. Not opening at all, not closing, etc. We ordered a new...

    Power Outage During Incubation

    I JUST started a hatch of BCM//BBS Friday evening. Late this afternoon we had a power outage lasting about 5 hours. Will this effect the hatch? They were in the incubator for about 16 hours when the power went out.

    Sweet Potatoes or Yams?

    I canned 25 pounds of yams today and am wondering if I cook the peels down, are they safe for chickens? I know that you can't give them potatoes, but does it apply to yams and sweet potatoes?

    Free Chick- What Breed?

    It does look like your chick. Thanks! I was kind of wondering about it being a rooster because of some of the noises it makes, and I have noticed that roosters seem to have more of a hawk look to their face. Females seem to have eyes that are further down on their head and have a different look...

    Free Chick- What Breed?

    The feed store was giving away free chicks so I had to get a few. I thought this chick was pretty, but I can't figure out the breed. I thought it might be Light Brahma, but the legs aren't feathered. I also assumed they were pullets, but am thinking it might be a roo. Any ideas? Thanks! :)

    Agressive Guineas

    She's been back with them for at last 3 weeks. One of the guineas hates one of my Olive Eggers and is always grabbing her. I don't think I would like the noise of several more Guineas,lol. My chickens free range exclusively with no fences, so there is plenty of room for all of them. I just...

    Agressive Guineas

    I have 3 Guineas that are 6 months old. A male and 2 females. I thought they might help to protect the chickens and they were hatched and raised by a BCM. They sleep with the chickens and I let them out early in the morning. They all free range, I don't have a run. A little over a month ago...

    Anyone order from Farwest hatchery out of Oregon??

    I hope they succeed also. I ordered my fist laying hens (SLW) from Lazy 54. It would be nice to be able to get chicks without paying huge shipping costs. I also like their selection.

    It's been 10 days and I am still cleaning, applying antibacterial medicine and honey. The scabs have fallen off and it does not seem to be as bad. She has laid 6 eggs, and it keeps prolapsing with poops as well. She is in the house in a tote, I clean it out 2-3 times a day. She is getting...

    Eggbound with Prolapse

    Thanks, I did post it to the other forum. Still prolapsing. I cut back her food, etc and she has laid 5 eggs this week. I clean her, put antibacterial ointment and honey on her and gently push it back. A lot of times, she will strain and push it back out. Giving her Duramycin and Rooster Booster...

    Anyone order from Farwest hatchery out of Oregon??

    Eugene Backyard Farmer is supposed to get some Welsumners and I think that Coastal Farm usually has Welsumners for chick days. If you go to the Eugene Backyard Famer website there is a calender of the chicks he is supposed to get every week. I "like" their page on Facebook and you can e-mail him...

    Bad Prolapse, Advice Needed

    She has scabbing pretty badly. She strains against me after I clean. I just hold it there for awhile ( she usually poops), clean it again, apply honey and gently try to ease it back. After straining a few times, she usually holds it in. I did trim all the feathers today, I should have done...
