I posted a couple pictures of these 2 when I first got them a while back.
They were too young to tell last time. Here they are a little grown up. If
I had to guess I would guess the palm is a tom, and the red is a hen?
Anyone have any ideas?
Here is my Bourbon Red.
Here is the Royal Palm.

Hopefully I linked correctly. Do people not realize this is the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA still, and if you don't like it you can leave it. It's one thing to be ticked off with the president, or some policy's, but it's entirely...
Bought these 2 turkeys a few weeks ago, and still can't figure out if they are male or female.
I want one of each. The breed doesn't really matter as long as they can breed naturally. The
place I got them only offers st. run, so it's a crap shoot. the white is a royal palm, and the other
is a...
These are going to need to stay in 1 general area. The area is roughly 70x30 with 7 ft fence on 3 sides, and 4 ft fence on one side.
Predation is not a problem. If I take a couple pics I wonder if anyone could sex them. They are still pretty young like only1 week old.
I may take some pics later...
Got a bourbon Red, and a royal palm. I have no idea what sex they are. Here are my questions
1. If they are both male should I get rid of one.
2. About how old till they can go outside
3. Should I clip their wings when they get bigger? Or is that a chicken thing.
I finished the rabbit hutch which has no occupants at this time, and insert broody hens.
They absolutely hate it in there, but I'm gonna let them chill out there until they snap out
of it. Here it is, and 3 unhappy hens.
I have a good sized rabbit hutch that is not in use right now. If I put all 3 in there will that be alright. It is 2 ft tall x 6 ft. wide x 2.5 ft deep. Put a little food, and water in there, and call it a day? I have no rooster, so broody hens do me no good.
I have 3 buff rocks, and all 3 decided to go broody. They don't lay, and they make a ton
of noise.How do I keep them from doing this, or do I need to just get rid of them. I only
have 10 chickens and while they are being difficult I'm not getting eggs. What to do. Should
I have chicken for...
What does a hen act like when it becomes broody?
I think I may have one that is doing it. She sits in
the nest box all day, and when you try and lift the
lid to the nest box or tough her she screams at ya.
When she comes out of the nest she makes weird
noises, and puffs her body up, and struts...
I went out to get my eggs today, and I got this mongloid.
The white egg is a regular store bought, and the right is from
one of my buff rocks. It's kinda hard to tell in the pic, but it
is really mis-shapen. The middle is bulged out, and it has
lines all over it. Just weird.

I use raised beds. All different sizes. They are very easy to make, and keeps weeds down. ( I hate weeding)

Well the garden is too big for soaker hoses, and that would cost an arm, and a leg for the hoses.
I'm not giving up on a garden I'm just going to go about it a different way. I have really been wanting to get into
