    Peachicks Dying Off

    All my chicks died. One by one their wings began to droop, and despite my efforts to save them, using antibiotics, vitamins and dewormers, they each died. Their only symptoms appeared to be droopy wings and at some point they stopped drinking. I would love to find out what caused this so I...

    Peachicks Dying Off

    I've had 2 peachicks out of a surviving 6 die today. I've noticed they've had drooping wings, and I don't want to lose any more. However, I'm getting very confused reading old posts on the subject. Anyone with a concrete plan on helping these little guys out? Plan on running to the store in...

    How long does it take for a peahen to lay a clutch?

    My peahen started laying her eggs a week ago yesterday (I believe). She's laid 5 eggs so far. I'm wondering how long it takes for her to lay a clutch, and at what point she should be setting on them. I have a couple of broody hens I'd like to place the eggs under before the eggs spoil, if...

    How do you know when a peahen is done laying a clutch? I have four eggs at this point, and there is no pattern to her laying.

    Peahen Not Laying Eggs

    I'm in the Shenandoah Valley area. My hen laid 3 eggs as of yesterday, but nothing new today. Is that typical? I guess I'm paranoid about whether or not she'll set on them.

    Peahen Not Laying Eggs

    It figures after I put my post out there that my peahen finally laid some eggs. There were 2 out there this afternoon, and 1 more by this evening. I'm debating on removing them (so she'll lay more than the average) and trying to incubate. But, I've never used an incubator and I'll have to buy...

    Roosters riding my hens hard and making their backs bald.

    Quote: I had never heard of saddles for chickens until this post. Thanks for the links. I will research them and make a decision. I've had my chickens for a few years, but I don't have a lot of knowledge on them. I've read books and whatnot. However, I'm a huge bird lover. Also, I have...

    New thoughts on catching free range peacocks?

    My 8-year old son actually captured my free-range peafowl for me. Simply by chance, he saw my peacock walk into my husband's workshop. So, my son ran over and shut the door. I was then able to grab his legs and pen him up. I then (my son's idea) placed my peacock in the shop (in his...

    Roosters riding my hens hard and making their backs bald.

    Okay, I definitely have toooooo many roosters. I probably have 4 or 5 roosters, and maybe 15 hens. Thanks for the advice!

    Roosters riding my hens hard and making their backs bald.

    I have several roosters and hens that are free range. My poor hens backs are getting bald and red. I feel so bad for them. Is penning up my roosters the only way to control this? I'm guessing so, but I had to ask. Thanks all!

    Peahen Not Laying Eggs

    Well, I know for sure she laid eggs 2 years ago. As for last year, she was loose, so she could have laid some somewhere. Who knows? So, given both reply posts, peahens only lay eggs in their first few years? Is there anyway to tell how old a hen is? Thanks so much for your help, guys! I...

    Peahen Not Laying Eggs

    I had my peacock and peahen for less than a year. The former owners said the peahen had laid a few eggs 2 years ago. I adopted them this past Fall. I built a large enclosure, approximately 10' x 10' x 25', and placed them inside. For the past several weeks, Azul, my peacock, has been...
