    What is considered basic obedience!?

    This is just for curiosity sake and discussion. What do YOU consider basic obedience for a dog!? As in, what commands are essential for them to know. And what commands are basic obedience versus tricks!? To me, basic obedience includes sit, stay, down, come, and heel and/or loose leash...

    Is there any “future” for flock infected with Coryza?

    I am, or I guess generally my family, is very poor. I couldn’t afford vet fee, but I can guess my chickens have coryza by their stank. I had healthy chickens before, they smell of dust and dirt after rain, my current smells of rotten eggs. The house we rent have a huge property, but no pets...

    What Is Your Pet’s Name and What WERE They Going To Be Named!?

    Like the (very long) title says, I’m curious to know if anyone has a pet that originally was going to be called something different from their current name. Maybe they came with a name and you hated it or maybe you just couldn’t decide on a name and it took a bit to choose, etc. I’m curious...

    So, i have a plan, to make hybrids and purebreds, by rotating on which roosters will breed with other hens, and I'm planning to change them once the hens finished incubating their eggs. I'll isolate the hatchlings in the brood box alongside the ones i incubated in my automatic incubator. And...

    Hi all, i have a pet white silkie and my girlfriend wants to dye her wingtips and tail for easter fun. My concern is that will make her much more visible to predators as she and my other chicken have free range of the back yard during the day. The only predators we have to worry about in our...

    👀 BLUE Eyed chickens discussion 💬

    :frow:oldNow that I have a blue eyed 2 month old chicken (who I expected to have brown eyes) I am stumbling on the realization that out of the thousands of chickens I’ve owned over the years, I’ve never had such a chicken with Blue eyes. Further research tells me it’s because it’s supposed to be...

    The unofficial 'official' BYC solar eclipse thread

    I'm surprised no one else here has started one of these. OK there are a few related threads, mainly asking how if will affect their animals, but not one specifically for discussion of the event itself. So I thought I'd fill the vacuum and start one. Normal rules apply: Play nice!
