Owl watched the copper dragonet from a distance. The unfamiliar dragon was small, covered in shimmering copper feathers Owl had never seen before. She was sitting and looking into a small forest stream, her wings drooping. She didn’t look like much of a threat. Owl approached, making sure...

I had this idea to start a little community for the writers here on BYC. I'm planning on posting a new writing prompt every day, and anyone who wants to can write a little story or part of a story to go with the prompt! It could be any genre, and you can be as creative as you want, as long as is...

Last Friday I came home and my beautiful cockatiel, Apollo, was dead on the floor of his cage. There's no sign of a struggle, my cat was in her room with the door closed. He was fine the day before, singing, getting into things, as spicy as ever, but now hes dead. Maybe he was a little quieter...

Any bone collectors out there? I cleaned my first skull in 2020, a cat I found in a field. From there I continued collecting! I have a wide variety of bones, including Sandhill crane, peafowl, and lizard skulls! Cat jaws I picked up yesterday. They’re degreasing now, and I’m probably going to...

I’m getting a cockatiel soon, and I think I’ve picked out the bird I want! It’s an eleven week old hand tamed Whiteface Cinnamon Pearl. Can anyone take a gander on the sex? Sorry for the bad resolution…

My dog attacked one of my hens. I think she has a broken jaw as its not straight and she can't move it, and I think shes in a lot of pain. She won't eat but she drinks, and yesterday I noticed thick yellow pus leaking from her eyes and mouth and I'm afraid a bad infection is brewing. I don't...

I got home last night and my dog came running up to meet me. My dog is supposed to be in his kennel. I ran into the back field where the chickens are kept and saw absolute carnage. Feathers everywhere, blood spattered on the leaves, and chicken carcasses all around. Two were still alive...

Last night I had a stroke of inspiration. I love dragons, and have always loved drawing them, studying bat wings, their muscles, how to make them realistic, but I wanted to take it a bit farther. What if I made myself some dragon wings? Like moving ones that can fold and stretch...

Hello! About a week ago I noticed three of my adult chickens gone from my yard. I thought maybe they were just hanging out in the bushes behind the fence and would be back at feeding time, but they weren't. Occasionally I would have one or two adventure seekers I would have to chase from the...

A couple months ago, we started noticing squash bugs in our enclosed garden bed. We put some six week old chicks in there, but they were too big and inexperienced so they started eating the veggies and trampling the plants. So I took out the chicks and the squash bugs stayed. My quail...

I have a cross breed chick that was hatched by a broody a couple days ago that's always stretching his neck up and gasping like it can't breathe. It's been like this since hatch. This chick is smaller than the others, and seems a little slow. It eats with the others and his crop fills up and...

Some backstory: I put three peafowl eggs under my broody silkie hen and she hatched all three successfully. A week or two later one of them was looking a little sick, so i checked her over and found some poo not covering her bottom but stuck onto her belly feathers. After a closer look I...

Yesterday I had my two extra Coturnix quail roosters separated from the girls because they were overmating and the hens were going bald and were stressed. When I went to check on them before bed, I noticed that one of the rooster's eye looked like it had something on it. It looked kind of like...

A dog got a pigeon at the park yesterday :\ It doesn't seem to be able to fly, but I'm not sure if the wing is broken because he holds it normally. But when he tries to fly, one wing flaps and the other does too, but slower and weaker so he flies uneven. He seems uncoordinated and when I pick...

I'M WAAAAAAAIIIIIIITTTTTING! Chick fever has arrived, but no eggs yet! When do your hens usually begin laying?

..... trip and fall over a twig and go head over heels, quacking the entire way. Continue!

Tip:DO NOT let your bantams get wet on a cold day. Said thing happened and I came outside to what I thought was a dead hen. She was wet and cold and stiff. My cochin bantam, Houdini, was next to her, weak and twitching. I found my second OEGB hen behind a cage, looking dead too. I rushed...

Hi! We've been looking in to getting some guinea keets, and I wanted to ask a few questions before making our final decision. How much space do they need? We have 1.75 acres. The person we were going to get them room said they need at least five acres, but I just want to confirm. Do they get...

Ive been making harnesses and saddles for my poultry, and I would like to share them on here! I don't have that many colors, but I might get some more soon. Protect your hens from injury from roosters, picking, or just a bad molt! Sizes: Pigeon/Small Parrot- $3.00 X-Small (Sebrite, OEGB...
