Hi, I was wondering if you can give JumpStart to chickens. I know it's mostly for animals like horses, cattle, goats, sheep, and the like (which we have) but I was wondering if you can use it for chickens. Thanks!
I'm really excited because I just started incubating the first batch of quail eggs of 2024:yesss:. I can't wait to see how it goes . Some of the eggs are from my new jumbo brown quail.
Hi, I have 2 black silkie bantams, not yet mature. I have hear that they tend to be broody. Could they perhaps hatch out quail eggs (coturnix)? I tried quail eggs with a Starlight Olive Egger but she crushed them and when she found out they were crushed, she ate them😑. But silkies are a lot...

I recently lost a Cornish cross to Rales, and was wondering if it is contagious? I put it ( when it was alive)in the cage with 2 of my cuckoo Maran chicks, which are acting fine. It died the same night I put it in with the Marans:confused:
Hi everybody, I'm new to BYC👋. I raise chickens, quail, guinea fowl, and geese. I have Old English bantams, brown Chinese geese, a Sebastopol-embden cross goose, pearl guineas, coturnix quail, and a few bobwhite.
