I recently got a pair of golden Polish, and while I know they're already hard of seeing because of their poofs, I am beginning to worry the rooster is blind.
They're only six months old. When I got them their tail feathers had been plucked due to over crowding at their previous homes. At first...
Okay, so long story short I asked on here about hatching guineas. Heard hey could hatch early and if I should take the turner out early. I was told no leave it till day 25. Today I went yo check on my eggs... Its only day 24. And one is 3/4 the way out. But its head is stuck to the membrane...
I am not sure if there is where I should post this. But is this the stuff to use for mites? This is all my tractor supply carries, from what I understand its for feeding them though?
Does anyone have a picture of the bag I can put where they dust bathe?
Thanks!

So today, my little brother walked to my house through te woods and field from my parents. He called me and said there was a baby duck in the field on the trail behind my house, I told him to leave it, the mom would get it.

Hello!
I have 3 roosters, and 25 hens. 2 of the roosters are slightly more aggressive when it comes to breeding, where the other one couldnt care less.
About 6 of my hens don't have Amy feathers on their backs because for whatever reason the roosters mostly only go after these hens.
Is there...

So, I have read a lot of keeping chickens and turkeys together. Potential diseases and just aggression and general.
My question is, if we get turkeys we would be butchering then most likely, at least the males, by fall.
Can I keep chicks and turkeys in the same brooder?
I have read somewhere...
I bough chicks from tsc today, and let me say this is not my first rodeo with chicks. They are in like one of the metal livestock tanks like tsc keeps them in, only bigger. They have their heat lamp, and if they get too warm plenty of room to move away from iT.
I bought 6 bantams, and 6 black...
