Anything's possibe, for sure. But, he was quite chatty, friendly and told me what he was planning to do with it. He also made suggestions on where to find others, what issues to look for, etc. I got the impression he was honest.

Well, I just called him to say, "I'll take it." He said he and his wife decided to keep it. On goes the search.

You can get them at any drug store, or probably in the baby section of the grocery store, too.

I'm looking at a Sears and Roebuck Incubator, 8 trays tall. It's in excellent condition, and had the thermostat and ?fan? replaced in February. He wants $300 and won't budge on the price. I know it's not a steal, but it is reasonable? I can't seem to find another one around here, so I don't...

That predator thing is something I wondered about, but that snake is nowhere to be found. Maybe it was in there at one point, though. It was too dark for DH to make out what kind it was, but it was about 5.5 to 6 feet. Also, I just saw on another thread that someone's girls weren't going to...

If all the spots looked like the back of the RIRs comb, I would have assumed it was pecking injuries. But, the cochin's eye has a spot on it, the RIR has a small spot on it's ear, and a dot of 'wart' or 'pock' on it's comb side (dark spot in photo). And, well, whatever is wrong with that...

My flock is 4 month old RIRs, BR pullets, and 2-3 month old cochins, faverolles, ameraucanas, and black spanish and lilac turkeys pullets and cockerels (and toms?) I was gone for two weeks and a neighbor was caring for them. When I came back yesterday, well....things had, um, changed. They're...
