I was a very frequent BYCer prior to Hurricane Ike in 2008 when my home was swallowed, including all my chickens, ducks, pheasants & more. It was very painful to say the least. Now, 5 hrs later, and with finalizing my divorce last week I have decided its time for birds again! (And for some crazy...
These 2 keep confusing us. I've had barred rocks before (as well as many others) but never dominiques. Are these cockerels or pullets? I'd think they'd have crowed by now but they do fluff up their neck feathers & play fight & one in particular seems quite dominant.

i lost all my birds except 3 rouens thx to hurricane Ike (i guess ~$500). Now I'm ready to start over...on a much smaller scale. what do I do? Hatch PB, get some X's laying locally, or order chix from Ideal & grow them up. I dont want the hobby to turn into a chore again. I was thinking the lg...
Lost everything except 3 rouens due to Ike and want to start up again. Curious if any1 w/in an hr of 77630 (Orange) has anything. Chickens and muscovy are my current search.

I lost ALL of my birds $$$s worth except 3 rouens due to IKE and I would like to get 3-5 chickens. Houston on over to Lake Charles is ideal for me. And e-mail reply would be best as I don't have the internet or computer anymore.
Thanks guys!

I am wanting to order some freedom rangers or possibly cornishx's or maybe both come fall (probably order them late Aug.) I will start doing research soon as to exactly where I will get them from, etc. But I need to wait until it starts to cool, but I will want atleast 25 birds here as I will be...
When is a pheasant's laying season? I bought 4 pair of pheasants and the guy told me they were laying steady...well it's been about 2 weeks...so they've had plenty of time to settle in IMO. Are they not settled or did I just so happy to become unlucky & miss their season? Are they spring & fall...
I just came across the following text:
Humidity in the incubator should be between 45 and 50 percent and the temperature should be 95 F. Ringneck pheasants will begin hatching after 24 and a half days.

Would prefer local pickup but willing to ship express. Shipping should be about $40.05, plus box fee of $7. You only pay shipping charges that I pay. Both are feather shanked. Out of Ray Valentine birds.
