Hello. :) I'm not going to sugarcoat this.
Currently...
After always reading about other folks troubles, it’s finally my turn!
I’ve had many batches of chicks over the years and I’ve only rarely lost one when they’re small; I buy from a reputable hatchery, they all arrived seemingly healthy, I have 20 broilers and 6 poults in the brooder, they’re 6...
We are willing to give him away for free to a good home, we have too many roosters and they're starting to hurt our ladies a lot. He is very docile, but I would reccomend him to people with bigger chickens (ie, not bantams).
First come, first served.
I have been wanting to start my own Turkey, geese, quail, chicken and duck Hatchery. Questions include...
1.) Can you sex day olds, and how?
2.) How much room is needed for them (Acres)?
3.) I was wondering how much can I sell Ocellated Turkeys, (Once I get them this spring)????
Hi Guys!
I am a first time chicken tender and i could use some help as I am on the verge of insanity.
Flea season has been insane this year! My dog is infested with fleas and despite my efforts they just keep coming. That leads me to my main problem- the yard.. my chickens free range and I...
One of my cayuga ducks has gone lame, she was limping slightly but she never really showed much pain. She seemed to be getting better but this morning she barely moved, instead of rushing out of the hut in the morning she sat in the back corner and slowly made her way out. She was keeping...
Hi everyone! This week I hatched 6 ducklings that came from the eggs of my beloved babies that got taken too soon by predators. I am determined to build them the most safe pen / hutch imaginable for when the time comes for them to move outside. I was thinking of even buying a small sized shed...
Hi guys my du Kline just hatched legs and everything are out of egg but his / her butt still seems attached to the shell and he / she is peeling a lot and can’t seem to break loose? Is this normal? What do I do?
Hi! I have a single male fowl by the name of Junior living with my brood of chickens (8 hens + one rooster + one Jr.) right now. Recently, Junior got an eye infection from either coming into contact with something dirty or from being pecked at by the rooster, we're not too sure, and while we...
I have a straight run week old silkie with its vent swollen quite large. I haven't seen the little one use the restroom and I've been watching it. Its skin is black so I cant tell if its irritated because it cant redden. I checked on the chick around 12 this afternoon and it was fine till I came...
hi guys,
I’ve already posted a few times about how my male mallard got loose at night and we found him missing Monday morning (4/9). Something had seemed to have been stealing / raging eggs I hadn’t found in our yard. We live in NJ in a suburban area and I raised three ducks together, one...
I've had this chick for roughly a week and I've noticed her right eye is missing. Her beak is fine and doesn't appear to be having any other problems, however I was hoping to get any advice on caring for her that I can. That goes for immediate or preventive action. I can post a picture of her...
