Yay Chicks! :
There is this stuff called Rooster Booster No Pick...something like that...that I use. You have to use it regularly.
It's generally a better idea to remove the chickens doing the pecking rather than the ones being pecked. When you reintroduce them they will start out at the...
I have babies that are around 6 or 7 weeks old that the other babies are picking their feathers out making them bleed and making sores.. What can I get to put on them to make them heal up and re-grow feathers.. I already removed the injured ones and put them by their selves.
What would make the...

Thanks! I really lost count on how many eggs I did set.. (ALOT LOL) I'd had no luck with the 2 batches I sat before and on this batch just sat them on the turner and forgot about them.

I just bought Guinea Keets here for $3 bucks each.. Which the local hatchery around here charge $3.87 for day old keets. I know that Adult Guineas are hard to come by here. You can purcahse a straight run threw the local sale barn and have seen them go for around $10 to $22.50 each.. But I have...
I've tried to put their feeders up on bricks and they still dig threw it.. Never thought about a pie pan before though.. Wouldn't they poo in it and things??? Or did you not have that issue? My Brooder has it where they are on wire and their dropping fall threw so when they dig it out they can't...
