    Why is he crowing??

    We have a Serama cockerel named Tiny who has started crowing for us. When I got him months ago, I already knew he was a cockerel because that was the reason he was given away. The problem I have with this, is we already have a Serama rooster named Scout who already lets out a strangled crow only...

    Laying eggs in the evening??

    Not sure what is happening with my birds but it's very confusing. A few days ago, I started keeping my birds locked up until around an hour before dusk as we've had hawk issues so I wanted to ensure that I was out there watching them. However, I've noticed a few of the hens have been laying...

    Rooster lost a lot of weight / Lethargic

    Our silkied Serama rooster named Scout is lethargic. When I picked him up, I felt how thin he was. He is normally hiding from me whenever I go outside so I didn't keep an eye on him daily. I gave him some Nutri-Drench a few minutes ago. He's not thin to the point of culling right away but I'd...

    Day 23, No pips, still moving around when I candled

    Sebright eggs. It's day 23 and still no pips but all 5 chicks are still moving around in the eggs when I candled them earlier today. The humidity is where it should be as I have the AcuRite Indoor Digital Thermometer & Hygrometer in the incubator. How long should I wait before I toss them?

    Why is my almost 8 year old hen still trying to lay eggs?

    My almost 8 year old Black sex link hen still lays and I'm confused why because she should have stopped by now at her age. And yes I know she still lays because I watched her drop a hot one this morning while I was changing the bedding in the coop. I'm not mad, just confused. My flock are pets...

    How to feed a senior cat with missing teeth?

    I recently took our almost 14 year old male cat Moses to the vet to get a check up since he hasn't seen a vet since he got neutered at 1yr. The vet checked his mouth and discovered that he lost a few of his teeth. He currently doesn't have any issues eating but I don't want him to starve if he...

    Later this year I'll be hatching out our bantams' eggs but I've never done bantam eggs before so I'd like advice. I'm more use to standard size eggs and duck eggs.

    What can I feed to help put weight on this chick?

    I got a chick that's around 5-6 weeks old and she's not gaining weight. I noticed a few weeks back that she was a bit skinny, more so than the other chicks. I let her eat separately but now I've noticed that she's not even gaining weight as much as she needs to. She's eating & drinking fine...

    Questions about breeding

    First I'd like to mention that any offspring that hatch out, I'll either be keeping for food, to even out male-to-female ratio, or dropping off at auction. Edit: I have no plans to keep the IR drakes after breeding so I don't plan to breed them to the IR ducks I have. Please don't tell me to...

    Female or male? Was I lied to?(Mixed Serama)

    When I picked up the Seramas a few months ago, I was told 3 roos 6 hens/pullets. I already knew which were the roos at the time but I'm sure I was lied to about this "hen" We've lost 2 of the roosters so we're down to just Scout. My dad told me he heard not only Scout but possibly this bird...

    Who stays and who goes? (Breeding drakes)

    Now that molting season is over for my ducks, I have to decide which breeding drake is staying and which one is going. I'll be adding more WH females soon but one drake has to go. I feel bad because they've always gotten along even during breeding season but I lost a few females over the months...

    My ducks have been nesting and making new nests in the coop for 2 months but I haven't seen any eggs yet. I provide a light and have been making sure they get their 18% feed everyday.
