I have been wanting some guineas, however, my neighbors have a flock of about twenty. If i get some will they join my neighbors flock?

Awww! The collar is still working for our little Tractor. I did figure out it had to be tight. He dislikes it so much he doesn't even try to crow. He still makes other sounds, though. I guess it just depends on the rooster, maybe?

He's got so many pin feathers, it's hard to tighten it... May try to get it tighter it again tonight.

Yeah, that's what I was worried about the first few times, but I finally bit the bullet and got it good and tight. I had to pull a lot of the up so I could get it good and snug.

If you get them as chicks, they will imprint on your coop and yard. I don't know if they will mingle as adults, but they should come home to roost. If you get adults, it is hard to get them to stay.

Is he a frizzle cochin? I think that is the next chicken I'm going to get if I don't get another silkie first.

Double yolk!

He is! We have two frizzle hens that came with him, but they are in the middle of a very ugly molt (and won't be bred to him). We are hoping he and her silkies will make some sizzles next year.

I have read almost all the threads on bumblefoot, I am still not sure if thats what one of my girls has. She just started limping today so it is not advanced. I checked her feet tonight, hubby said, yes, it looks like the pictures, then I showed him the pictures of the surgery, he said " have fun" so looks like my lady is going to work with me tomorrow. Just hope I can convince one of the doctors to work on her foot.
