Thank you to everyone for your explanations and advice. I truly appreciate it. I believe I have some hens that might just move into the 'love shack' this weekend. LOL

I have some gorgeous Lavender Orp girls and a great LO Roo. I've heard I should cross him with black 'chickens'. Like...?? Australorps or Black-Sex Linked. Which would be best to cross him with? What would this produce? Has anyone done this and what were your results?

I was leaning towards buffs also but just wasn't sure (never had them before). Anyone have them?

These babies just came home with me. Sign at feed store said "Hatchery Choice Ducklings". Any guesses on what I have???

Need addition to the Funny Farm. Received from my aunt but she didn't know what he was. Mutt??

I have several Pekin ducks that have just started laying and one the laid for the first time this morning. When I collected the eggs, no one paid any attention except the newbie. She went into her house and started making this horrible crying noise and nosing around in the straw. I figured...

Ok...I know this sounds kind of weird but I would like to see if there is any existing flock management software out there. I have several runs with certain breeds of birds in them and want to start figuring out who is 'paying rent' and who isn't. I was keeping my feed costs in a spreadsheet...

He's definitely at that gawky 'teen' age right now. I can't wait to see how he 'grows' up!

OOOOOHhhhhhhh....I think you figured it out. I was thinking Egyptian Fayoumi but now that I've googled pictures of Silver Campines....that's more like him. Thank you soooo much! Do you have experience with this breed and if so, can you give me some pros/cons. Thank you!!!

That's what I thought also. Egyptian Fayoumi but I don't think the hatchery sells those (but I'm definitely going to look again ). He's so unique, I'm probably going to keep him.

Received this chick as my "exotic chick" from a hatchery. I believe it's a roo but not sure...any help on the breed? "He" has black legs and usually stands really tall (he ducked down when I took the photo).

Found this really helpful. I have leghorns and some 'heavy breeds' (that's what the hatchery called them). They look like they have meat on them but when I catch them, it's mostly feathers (and attitude). They are about 14 weeks old. All are cockerels...so some are starting to think they...

My poults are about 5-6 weeks old and I purchased them from a local food co-op. Sign said that they were Bourbon Reds. They seem to be thriving in their run and eat gamebird feed. Cute little ones who are very curious and friendly. This is my first time around with Turkeys but I'm...

I have 4 hens, a rooster and 2 Pekins in the same coop/run. They have always been together since I purchased them. I am having some problems with the Rooster trying to mate with the ducks recently, so he gets to stay in the run while the others play in the field. Water is an issue...

This is Toupee, my naked neck Roo. He's very submissive and tame (probably due to how many times we pick him up and show him to people). He's a real sweetie...just umm...different....

My Rooster, Drumstick....hatched him from an egg last July and now he's a big boy who 'owns' all that he can see. Cuckoo Maran.
