Yeah, I was worried because it looked worse than some of the pictures I saw online, but it was fixed somewhat easily. I forgot to take any pictures of her, but it was a ball with a three inch diameter of, well, intestine I guess. My mom came and pulled me out of school because she didn't know...
One of my runner ducks had a prolapsed rectum today :/ that wasn't something I ever thought I would have to fix, she seems to be okay now, but I'll be keeping a close eye on her
I've never used corn but what I've always done is freeze the fruit that's going bad and give that to them, be warned if you use watermelon, your white chickens will look like they just came out of a bloody battle lol
We went to the TPPFF show today at AZ feeds, had a great time seeing everyone's birds again! Neither of my pigeons won anything and Jeffy was disqualified for his comb, but I got 4th in showmanship! I also ended up taking home five Starling ( I think that's what Patrick called them) home with...
I add 5 new hens to my flock on Saturday! Can't post pictures right now (I'm on mobile) but there is one EE two White Leghorn crosses, and Polish cross (that has two extra toes and a spur on one foot ???) And a black Australorp. Also added the two barred Maran hens to the big coop. Everyone is...
So only two chicks hatched out of my last batch, I'll probably be setting anouther dozen pretty soon. On Friday or Saturday I'm going to be getting five new hens, two polish and three white leghorns! They are all supposed to be laying right now
I've got two Seramas and I'd love to have any that you hatch out! They do make great house pets, my little rooster sits on my head and watches TV with me lol
We probably got about three or more inches of rain. The fire pit and the pigeon coops are in small lakes and everything is soaked. I have to go buy a new straw bale today and clean out all the pens
My doe is probably pregnant (she'll have it around March 15 if she is) I can't wait to have goat milk and cheese :D they're mini breeds though so no meat from them lol
My goats love the rain for some reason lol! they sit by the side of the pen and let it rain on their face The horses at work hate going in the barn when it rains though, they always get grumpy and kick at each other :P
All my breeds seem to do well together. They all were raised for chicks together and now they're almost a year old and I've never seen them pick on one another. My polish hen likes to be bossy (which is really funny because she has to jump up to peck the rooster and a couple hens) But I've never...
