Ok, I have heard the broody stories.. Tons of chickens noone would EVER think would go broody...and then did, and either disappointed them by "forget the mama thing" routine, or was the best mama ever. Mainly with other breeds....but a barred rock? How about all FIVE of my barred...

I came home today to find my 4 week ld guinea keep lying on her side panting and HOT, will not accept water on her own or food. She was fine when I left, but her cage/pen was HOT when we returned. She had water with ACV in it, and nothing funny about her food, or waste. Non medicated 20%...

My neighbor has a rooster (buff minorca, i think) who she does not pen, so he hops over to my side of the fence and "plays" with my hens and pullets. My pullets and bantams are getting hurt by him (one has a tragic-looking limp) and when I grabbed him to toss him back over the fence again, I...

I did a search for this and came up with NOTHIING so I decided I would see if anyone else knows about it. I hatched a gorgeous buff orpington chick three days ago. It walks just fine, just is not a fasst chick. I stood back and watched it when I put it in the brooder with some chicks that...

The flock that was previously for sale has been sold, re-homed, and fostered to satisfaction. Thank-you for your inquiries.

My chicken is still alive. I found a puppy chewing one of my 12 week old bb red cubalaya pullets' wing off and plucking the feathers out on that side of her. I have no idea how much blood was lost as the dog was licking it all up. She has lost most of her wing, up top the meatiest...

My daughter and I went to the park yesterday, and we found something we never expected to find. There is a pond, and LOADS of geese and ducks (mostly drop-offs) but 98% are males. Well, we found a nest with a HUGE goose egg in it! Of COURSE we took it home since the geese that were hanging...

My chickie looks to have broken her legs at the joint! They stick out crooked, and do not go straight when moved. the joints are both bigger than normal, nothing seems to cause pain.. She does not stand, does not seem able to stand. She seems in discomfort/pain when I stretch her legs into...

I just hatched three wonderful goslings, and I would like a second blood line to help prevent inbreeding next year when my boy gets hormonal I would PREFER Pilgrim, but totally love roman (tufted or not) and buff geese as well! the others fall all in a lump sum category, including sebbies (I...

i know Pilgrim geese are self sexing...that's partly why I got the eggs lol. BUT is dark male or female? I need to know since they are hatching now and I have one dark one out...the other two are pipped...but not enough to tell which color they are. Thank-you in advance!

Originally I posted about wanting to buy falcon eggs...I have done a bit of research and have found out a lot more info about the local falconing laws and have found a group here in Texas to gather reliable info from. Thank-you for your concerns and have a great weekend!

I have 3 Pilgrim Goose eggs in my incubator out of four that I received in good order. One quit on me,. The three remaining ones are due yesterday, and have been rocking since Tuesday early morning when I saw them rocking! When I moved them to my hatcher I could feel them knocking on the...

I have a question. Lately I have tried hatching quail, both coturnix and buttons. I have about a 25% hatch rate, BUT 50% make it to within a day or so of hatching...and never pip, so they are FULLY FORMED and dead in the shell...seems like they are HUGE and may have trouble moving enough to...

I just hatched 4 out of 4 of the BEST chicks ever...and I would like a few more for my flock! I just can't remember who it was that sent them, thanks to a grand emptying of my pm box (eeek!) They were from a stormy blue egg, and they are the FLUFFIEST cutest, sweetest babies eer! Even more...

I hatched out a few bourbon red turkey poults yesterday. They were doing very very well! Very active, they ate with help at first, and water, too...I had to show them, and I saw them picking at their dishes throughout the afternoon. Around evening, they were all staring up a lot. I...
