    Is there a cure for a nasty gander?

    I have got a really nasty gander, he year round attacks whenever I get within his striking distance, which varies on his mood. He attacks when I go to feed and goes after my hand or legs even when I try to shield with the food. I want to just bat him across the yard but don't want to injure...

    Sick pea

    If you have a sick pea chick or pea, the first and best choice is a good poultry vet. Failing that, and a lot of us do, the next best is a good poultry person that you know and is in your area. They are going to be the best suited to know what common problems in your area are and how to treat...

    Hpw long have you operated a rcom 20 incubator without it needing repair

    I am wondering how long everyone's rcom 20 lasts in working order. Mine was less than a year before the temperature went inconsistent.

    Can someone check my figures and tell me if this is enough?

    I don't mean to beat the subject into the ground. But although I trust the site I got this from (listed at the end) I didn't see when it was posted so don't know how old it is. * 1 ounce = 29.5ml. I'm using chickens because I could look up how much a chicken eats a day, and am using 1/2 cup...

    Classes of wormers

    I will only post about the first 3 classes because I don't believe 4 &5 are of much use. This is from the guinea forum yrs ago. Class I anthelmintics : Benzimidazoles and pro- benzimidazoles. These drugs exert their action on the intracellular polymerization of the tubulin molecules to...

    diagnostic tool for poultry

    This is going to take up some space, but it should be helpful. According to the UPA (unless I misunderstood) Peafowl are susceptible to the same diseases as turkeys, and can be treated the same. This information came from http://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/ps044 Table 1. Possible clinical signs for...

    BS pea herl color

    I know this is a dumb question, but I would like to know. I have a 2yr old BS peacock, that I can't right off hand remember if it is an IBBS or a purple BS. Even worse, its not phenotypically a BS, most of the top 1/2 of his wings are barred, even though it was a typical BS color as a chick/...

Here's a photo of foot damage that was apparently the result of heat tape on a roost, the tape was covered with carpet (the same...

    BS purple vs Spaulding BS purple

    I was cruising the UPA site hoping to find chick (of the pea variety, so don't get too excited) pictures- very few. Anyway, unless I misunderstood, while BS purple breed true, spaulding BS purple don't. My question is- how can this be? It suggests that the color / pattern were arrived at...

    Are your guineas still laying?

    Today was the first day I got no eggs from my penned guineas. The free rangers hide theirs too well, so I don't know about them.

    Can anyone tell me how to differentiate midnight BS chicks from Buford Bronze BS at 5 weeks?

    I got my pair of midnight BS chicks I've been looking for, BUT, the breeder had a pen of bronze BS, as well and was running the babies together. When it came right down to it, neither he nor I could tell which was which, so I've either got Buford Bronze BS or Midnight BS. Also I may have 2...
