Not long ago, I posted pictures of the chicks my sister hatched in her kindergarten classroom as part of the county's embryology program through 4H and the county ag extension. Teachers are able to rent an incubator and turner and can buy eggs. For reasons I can totally understand, the eggs are...
This little Painted Quail squeaker woke me up after hatching and looks to be a tuxedo of some kind, but I can't make out if he/she is a silver or cinnamon! :p
I've created an account on this website 6 years ago I believe, I just was never active until now... talk about procrastination lol! I did not start out with chickens, our first birds were guineas, I think we had at least 30. Then we got 70 pheasants and then 10 or 15 turkeys.We no longer have...
They are 11wks old! I'm so proud of myself that they are doing so good! Do I worry a bit much sometimes? Yeah, I do... These are my first babies. All I want is for them to keep growing bigger and stronger every day.
These are my new girls, three Rhode Island Reds, two Leghorns(brown and white), and three Pekin ducklings!
(P.S. there water is on the other side, it got cut out of the picture!)
Hi Everyone! Our girls are mostly Araucanas and it seems like they're all trying to "out beard" each other - our current winner is Chloe, who most of the time can barely see because her fluff is so fluffy, and when she closes her eyes, you cannot even see where her eyes should be! She still can...
So I bought a 5 week old whiting true blue today from a lady who gets them from Murray McMurray and she basically looks like a brown leghorn with a pea comb and more of a salmon chest almost. I'll post some pictures tomorrow. I didn't have much options as far as color goes, but I know they come...
Has anyone ever tried this cross? I know it will be a sex-link, but am wondering about the colors and egg production. From what it seems, standard sex-links (red or black) produce more and larger eggs than both of their parent breeds. Is this true for all crosses? Can I see some pictures of your...
I thought I’d share some cute pics of my nearly 4 week old ducklings and their parents.
Please forgive me if I’ve posted this in the wrong place, I tried looking in the duck forum but didn’t really think it was appropriate to just start posting duck pictures amongst people asking questions...
Hello, fellow poultry lovers in this thread you can post pictures of your chicks. I will post pictures of my chicks and we can all enjoy them, watch them grow, and share stories!!
I have been seeing more and more of my Husband's Greetings he makes on photoshop here on BYC.
AND I LOVE IT!
I can't take them with me when I die someday but it is wonderful we left our mark behind. In a positive manner anyway.. lol
Here is a short list library of some of my Dear Husband's...
One of my hens has a spot on her neck with no feathers. I'm not sure exactly how old she is, but I got her in July about 3-4 months before she started to lay. I've been watching them and I haven't seen any of them pecking her. None of the others have blank spots that I've noticed. Is she being...
Hi everyone I recently got two cute redsexlinks pet baby girls the names Dylan & Kurt (Cobain). They're very cute! I just wanted to see other people's sexlinks :) feel free to tell me about them I'd love to hear it :love tell me the names how old they are the personalities and pictures of them...
I was wondering what you guys think of these chickens I met in Cuba. I asked the rancher I was staying with what breed some of them are, and he told me all of the chickens in Cuba are weird cross-breeds. The Cubans call their eggs "huevos criollos". Let me know what you think! Thanks!
