    Quail to good home in Baltimore

    I have three Texas a&m quail ready to go to a good home. I love birds but can’t commit to a cockatoo yet so I raised a few smaller birds as a side project. They were born on July 4th. I’m not familiar with sexing birds but according to the YouTube video they are all female. I would really prefer...

    Tucking roosters into bed!

    So I've discovered that my rooster, who normally will crow before it even gets light outside, has an off switch! If I put him into his basket nest and tuck him into bed with a towel in a dark space, then he will sleep until I get him up without making a peep. He won't crow at all until I take...

    Ferret lovers?

    I don't have a ferret yet, but I am in love with the idea of getting a male ferret. I have calculated the costs, and come to the conclusion that here in Australia, it would cost me $330 dollars [on average] to get the ferret, his cage, castrate him etc...And $100 dollars per year [on average] to...

    New to Group

    My name is Grant and I have two pet ducks. They are the hatchlings of a pet Pekin and Swedish Black. They have been lovingly handled as pets from the moment they were hatched, so they are decidedly PETS. We live in a developed neighborhood where you wouldn’t expect ducks or chickens...

    Utah - Bantam Cochin hen and Sultan rooster

    These two must go together. They are about 3.5 years old. The hen is possibly a Birchen or Silver Laced Cochin. The hen goes broody frequently if you are looking to hatch eggs. Rooster is very mellow and almost timid. They have been raised as pets.

    What makes chickens such great pets?

    When my friend asked me why I have chickens as pets, it got me thinking. Why are chickens such great pets? I would say what makes chickens great is their personality.

    What is your favorite breed of chicken and why?

    I was just wanting to know what everyone's favorite breed of chicken is and why they love that breed. It is really hard for me to choose a favorite breed, but if I had to choose it would be my bantam Polish chickens. They are such sweet hearts and they look so funny with all their head feathers.
