I'm very new to ducks and don't know anything about them. But I'll be getting some soon, two to be exact, and I don't have the a clue what kind they are. My uncle picked them up on the after he almost ran them over on the road. When they get here I'll try to post pics, but till then I need some...
I have three silver lakenleder chicks that are 9 weeks old and I bought at the feed store.( their suppose to be pullets ) They have feathers on their heads and necks and some on their wings but thats about it other than a few feathers here and there. My question is whats whats taking them so...
Deer season started a couple of weeks ago and my family has shot some deer and I was wondering if you could feed your chickens raw meat cause I have plenty of it.
Its been down to the low 40's over here and I was wondering if thats to cold for chickens. I went out today and saw that the tips of my roosters comb have a purpleish tint to them. Is that caused by the cold? If so how do I help him?
I Don't know were to put this so I guess this is the best spot.I have read that you can cross a Delaware rooster to a RIR hen and get chicks of the delaware color pattern.Is this true?
I hope I posted in the right post. I resently bought 6 BR pullets well what I thought was a BR but know i'm wondering if their Cuckoo Marans. How do you tell the difference between the two ? One of the pullets has yellow legs while the rest have white legs.Sorry no pics , their around 8 weeks old.
I am a newbie here and to chickens and I want to add to my flock of 5 RIRs.What I want to know is if I add a couple of different breeds to my existing flock would they fight.
