    ALABAMA!!

    Has anybody been to the poultry show in Fayette? Griffin Griffith Poultry Show I believe is the name. I believe it's in October this year. If you did attend was it a decent turn out? Thinking of going but it's 2 1/2 hours from my house. Wanting to make sure it's worth the drive before we decide...

    Sexing Hybrid 300 Ducklings

    I got them from a local owned feed store. Not sure where they sourced them. Will have to ask!

    Sexing Hybrid 300 Ducklings

    This hybrid is supposed to be sex-linked. That's what I'm going based off of.

    Need Ideas-Coop Design

    Sexing Hybrid 300 Ducklings

    Anybody want to take a guess? I have my guesses. I'm currently thinking it's 3 female/2 male. These are supposed to be sex-link. The picture reference I found of the males vs females wasn't super clear so I don't know 100%. Each picture is of a different duckling.

    Hybrid 300 Ducklings

    Nice. I had no idea they were sex-linked. Are they supposed to be a dual purpose? Or layers?

    Hybrid 300 Ducklings

    Anybody have experience with this cross? Never heard of it until I decided to get them local from the feed store. Ended up with 5 as we wanted to grow our duck flock.

    ALABAMA!!

    I'll try to figure out who it was. If you have Facebook search "Heart of Dixie Poultry Club" that's the club that show was affiliated with.

    No Eggs for a Week

    The temps aren't super high during the day yet...I'd day average of 75 right now, it will get much hotter this summer though. My kiddos just thought they'd like to have a treat haha. No chance for hidden nests because I haven't let them free range much this past few weeks as I'm on bed rest and...

    No Eggs for a Week

    Me and my kiddos have made them frozen treats this past week a couple times. As well as they have 2 different water containers. I will add electrolytes to one and see if that helps. These chickens have basically anything they could possibly need so I'm starting to think they are just...

    No Eggs for a Week

    Update: Still no eggs. Swapped them to a quality layer pellet, provide free choice oyster shells, scratch as treat only as recommended. Still moving their tractor every few days onto fresh grass. Always have fresh water. I guess now we continue to wait for these free loaders to decide they want...

    No Eggs for a Week

    Good deal. I've got to do a feed run tomorrow anyways. Sorry I had this reply sitting for over an hour, we just finally got out from under a tornado warning. Town just west of me got leveled.

    No Eggs for a Week

    Good to know. When I had chickens a decade ago they must have not cared because they laid consistently on whatever we fed....scrapes, scratch, layer pellet etc. I give 1/2 layer and 1/2 scratch because the old owner said that the rooster shouldn't have primarily layer feed. She's a vet so I...

    No Eggs for a Week

    We traded for a trio of BCMs 3 weeks ago as I wanted to have some laying already while we wait on the rest of the pullets to start laying. Hens are both 2 years old....we were consistently getting 1 egg a day the first two weeks no issues, some days they'd lay on the same day and we'd get...

    It's been years since I've tried to sex anything so I couldn't tell for sure.
