Anyone have Indian Runner Ducks? I got three at a swap this past weekend but think its two drakes and a hen. Going to have to have more hens. They are so funny to watch. But tend to be a little more skittish and not as tame as other breeds. Maybe in time they will calm down.

looks kind of like a buff silkie.

FYI. The TSC in Gallatin has lowered the prices on their chicks. Seems they over ordered and got to many. I got leghorn pullets a sex link pullets for $1.50 and rhode islands for $1. They have a bunch of silkies,a few bantams, Cornish rocks,and others for $1.50 also.

I do Elkton to and Scottsville. Guess its back to the ban tho. More flu broke out in Indiana. I'm afraid the flu is goinbg to put an end to the back yard flocvk. The big conglomerates have more pull and don t care about the little man.

Your right DM, my auctioneer friend just called and said its back on! Shucks!!!

hey Shadow what part of Ok are you from. I'm from the nortrh eastern part.,been here about 11 years. I am north of Nashville about 30 milesa.In Portland. Heard great news this week,Ky has lifted the ban on poultry at auctions. That's great for those of us living near the stateline. The...

Sorry its been so long since I have been on here. Still alive and kicking! Still in middle Tn.(Portland) . Am out of chickens at the moment but have my Roller pigeons and guniea pigs. Anyone else on our thread have either one? Not ready for the rain event for the next four days! Would much...

Wife89. I would put the Marian roo over whatever hens you have. That way the dark egg gene gets passed on. If you just want mixed breeds it will be good to hav them laying those dark eggs that everyone goes crazy over! I agree some of the prettiest cooks I've seen have been crosses. But then...

So sorry your dog got bitten,hope she recovers okay. I just don't like snakes,good ones or bad! Enjoying these nice warm days! Need to get some pens built after this past weekend! Went to the sale sat and got 4 pairs of bantams,then today was very lucky and got six americanna hens off...

The Elkton sale won't be till next weekend. They usually have lots of silkies there. This weekend is the Huge sale at Scottsville ,Ky. Might be a little far for you but I assure you it would be worth the trip! I am sure there will be silkies there and proably better quality ones. This sale...

Cinny what are the signs of mareks? Thanks.

Is pigeon a color or do you have pigeons also? I love pigeons!

There is also the huge Menonite sale in Fairview ,Ky this sat. Hopefuly the snow doesn't affect it too much. I have been there when it was bitterly cold and there were still lots of birds and lots of people!

Pickle,I have heard that a lot of people have good sucess leaving the eggs in the turners to hatch,just turning them off at the approriate time. If you fitted a wire floor inside maybe a 1/2 - inch off the floor could you also use it for the hatching process,like if you set bothe trays at one...

I'm sorry I was talking to the wrong person. Pickle I guess it is you who needs the congrats on the bator! Please continue to show us more! Sorry for the name mixup.

chicklet that is awesome! Please put me down to receive the building instructions. My only problem is the electrical part as I am completely ignorant and afraid of electrical wireing! I do wonder if that much open glass/plexi will make temp regulation a problem. Especially as in the flucations...

I don't think the Roos are all bad,maybe an occasional meanie. The main dislike for the leghorn breed is that they are so flighty ,meaning wild! Sometimes they tame down. If they are free range they are usually not bad but if you get them cornered or have them in lockup, they co crazy when you...

Hope everyone has their birds all secure. Sounds like a rough night is ahead! The wind has hit over here at Dover,it's gusting pretty good,ha a few hard showers. I

Thanks for explaing that in plain english Carol! Like they say,you learn something new everyday!lol. Thats a shame that greefire wouldn't own up to the flaws. I guess they think they are to big to get hurt by bad publicity but they will proably regret that way of thinking!

I thought auto sex and sex link were the same thing? The black stars seem to a good producer and popular breed. But so do the red varietys. Both are usually on the lower price scale. Just depends on the color you like! If you want a breed where the roos are one color and the hen another the...
