travel

I don't have a pigeon yet but I likely will in the near future, so I'm just thinking ahead. I don't go out of town very often, but every now and then my family and I will take a trip to visit a relative or something. Sometimes it's just a day trip, but sometimes it's a couple of days, or on...

Next weekend Im driving 3-4 hours to pick up 6 Buckeye chicks. Will the chicks be fine for that drive or should i give them food/water/heat for the trip?

I'm wanting to start taking a few of my hens on daily walks and adventures around town. What sorts of slings/bags have you found that work? I want something that can clean well or has a flat surface that I can put a towel on.

I don’t know if there’s already a thread on this so if so, sorry, but I thought this might be fun. Basically, you can talk about anything travel related like your favorite places or where you’d go if you could, etc. or asking and answering questions. For me, I’d love to go to Yellowstone...

I'm looking in to buying some hatching eggs, but it's my first time! I'm genuinely curious to know how these sellers know that the eggs are fertilized. 🤔 Or are they just assuming? I know there's no 100% guarantee on hatching eggs, so I'd love some advice before either making a 4hr road trip or...

Pintos go to the Olympics in Beijing.

Hi All, I am going to be traveling for work next year for anywhere from 3-7 months. I need someone to watch my chickens (10 hens) on their property. I will pay $20/week plus supply all of their food and bedding. I know $20 sounds low, but it may end up being around $560. They are a very...

Hi all! Not sure if this is the right thread to post under, but I am moving in a month and am trying to prep the travel of 9 adult chickens and 6 juveniles. I have limited room in my SUV and have a friend driving the moving truck for me. I am trying to use something that doesn't take up too much...

I have five, 8 week old chicks, who have been outside in the run/coop 24/7 for 2 weeks, and seem well adjusted. The coop is located within the run, and is very predator secure (1/2 inch welded wire, metal roof, predator skirt). We would like to go away for two days (leaving the interior door...

My family wants to go on a month long trip to western USA. I'm getting 6 baby chicks on April 12th, and we're planning on leaving May 15th ish. By then, the chicks will be a month old and growing their feathers. Here are the issues. 1. We could probably move them outside but then their in a new...

Hey y’all! I’ve been taking my 4-week old Pekins just about everywhere. I told my mom that if they didn’t imprint on me, I want them to know I imprinted on them. They travel in a cardboard box about 8” high, 18” Long, and 12” wide. It was great when I first got em at a few days old, but now...

So, here's my story. I live with a large, brave, loyal, six year old rooster. Okay, wait... There is a back story. Six years ago a man who was a monster died suddenly, leaving behind 20 chickens. He was so hated nobody would even care for the animals, and I ended up being one of the...

I am worried about the pet duck I am adopting. We are driving 12 hours from Delaware to Maine and I don't want her to be sick. Is there something I can give her? Is there anything else i can do or should do to make she is comfortable during our travels Abby

Please move this to the duck forum! I’m dumb and can’t figure out this website lol. My husband got orders to go to North Carolina and we’ll be leaving in the winter time. I’m currently in Illinois and the drive should be about 10 hours (we drive at night). Well have a truck with a back row of...

Hi, I have no experience with owning birds of any sort, but I would like to buy two or three quail hens for a source of eggs. The thing is, I have plans to move out of my parent's house and live full time in a van/ mobile home. I've heard that moving around can be stressful for quails, and I...

Hubby and I have had enough of the suburbs and have bought a small farm in Georgia. The move will take 10-11 hours. I have four hens going with us. I’m putting the coop on a trailer. I’m going to travel at night when the hens will most likely sleep. Do you think they would do better in their...

Hello. I am a first time duck owner. I have six beautiful goofy 10wk old ducks. Ine of my ducks seems to be crooked which I suspect to me a birth defect. It wasn't noticable when she was little and I am worried it may be getting worse. Being ther paranoid crazy duck mom I am making an...

Aloha! Moving from Hawai’i to the Mainland and trying to bring my silkie with me. Does anyone have experience/suggestions for traveling with a chicken by plane? Most airlines prohibit non-household birds (farm poultry) but she is an indoor chicken for the most part. Please help!
