Okay, so I was putting my chickens up about an hour ago and my cat came running in front of me from behind my OEGB coop and I saw something sticking out of his mouth and it was a mourning dove fledgling. I got it away from him and it doesn't look hurt just terrified. I has just about all of its...

Okay, so I got my Newest edition LG incubator set up so I could put some duck eggs in today, but I woke up to it have stopped working.

Okay, so lately I separated all my birds by breed and I have two blue and a lemon blue hen together and my lemon blue hen that I've had over a year now is trying to crow or is crowing. Here she is crowing. I've heard they will try to take over the roosters role and start doing that kind of...

Okay, so I came home one day to find my silkie pullet, she has a show in two weeks; well not anymore I reckon, she has something really contagious I do believe. I have been treating her with Tylan 50. 0.22-0.25 cc's daily since yesterday. I have pictures of her face. I will have to post them...

Anybody with bob whites or bob white mixes are welcome! I have just set 120 bob white quail eggs in my incubator due the 10th of September. If there is already a thread please let me know.

So, I'm getting 120 quail eggs and it's been a while since I've done it. They are bob white quail. How long does it take to hatch those little boogers off and what day should I put them on lock down?

I believe my GLW pullet that I ordered as a pullet is a little boy. I ordered it from Ideal Poultry.

Ok, so my lemon blue OEG bantam hen lays eggs for about a week then stops. Then she doesn't lay again until another month or longer! Its like she does some kind of broody thing, but she doesn't go broody. Does anybody know what is going on here?

Ok, so I went to candle the eggs last night and one stuck out in particular. It's day 18 and they have all filled up the egg except for one. Before I had moved her she had kicked an egg to the side around day three and I found it one day and put it back under her. It was buried under the...

My black cochin bantam hatched her eggs out today and one had its brain out of its head. It's chirping and moving fine. I don't think it will make it though. Should I cull it or let it pass on it own? I will have to get pictures. I had one but deleted it.

I have a lg incubator that I have a full turner in. I have a circulated lg fan in there, too. I have a radio shack wireless monitor in there, too. The difference between the sides of the incubator is close to 4 degrees different. I can't get the temperature right on the right side of the...

The first two are the same hen. They are a little bit bigger than my OEGB hen, too.

I got him at an auction and I can't figure out his color. I believe it's like a blue mottled or a blue porcelain. I can get a better picture if I need, too.
