Hello guys I’m new to this website,
I have Ayam Cemani rooster from Greenfire Farms, and a friend of mine has few cemanis mixed with EE and some with black astrolopes which lays cream eggs (their parents were from Greenfire farms as well) , I’m trying to pure breed them in future.
Questions...
Hello all, I live in Texas and would like to order from Metzer Farms, they have breeds i very much want and that i can’t find here. The only issue for me is that they’re all the way in California, I worry that is too long of a travel for the ducks, has anyone ordered from them that lives far...

The hatchery that I'm ordering from offers an option of getting Grogel plus b supplement.
Says that they send enough for 100 chicks. I'm probably getting 10.

I'm in Central Texas, and despite the temps the last week (14 degrees? wth?) hot weather is our norm.
Our Neighbor swears by Orpingtons for gentleness, but I understood them to not be great with the heat? Suggestions? I will have them in a tractor, and will try to free range them on pasture later...

Hi, I live in Houston, and Hurricane Harvey is heading our way. We are not evacuating, as we have pets, tenants, etc. I think we will be keeping the chickens in the bathroom, we don't wan't them blown away or anything. Do you have any advice on chickens and hurricanes? Topics such as: where to...
Hi, I've been scouring the internet for any Black Copper Marans and Ameraucana chicks for sale at the most one hour away from me. I live in Cleveland, Texas. I'd prefer them being 6-8 weeks old, so they can go with my other chicks, or ONE day olds. If possible, I'd like 1 male BLK CPR Maren, and...
