I have a lavender Tom and a black Tom. I have a lavender hen, a bronze hen and a bourbon red hen.
the Bronze and Red were my first turkeys about a year and a half older than the others and hand raised, as far as I could tell they hate the toms are believe I am the dominant as they always squat...
I have been watching my babies grow trying to figure out the breeds but two have them have me stumped. Which one of these breeds have tufts on their heads?
I noticed some runny poop on her feathers but when I picked her up saw what I believe is a prolapse. I cut away her feathers and wiped the area. I couldn’t get the white/black stuff off and I wasn’t sure if it was hurting her so I stopped. I also can’t currently soak her but in water as it just...
I bought 4 chicks from Runnings, they get their chicks from Hoover’s. I bought 4 rare assorted because 6.99 a piece was a lot for not really rare breeds. I was just hoping to get a blue egg layer. Then 2 are Ameraucana’s because NY makes me get 6.
Any help would be appreciate, thank you.
There was a post on FB with this beautiful rooster. I and a few others commented on wanting eggs from this bird in the Spring. They only comment once to the first poster saying “okay”
They posted in both a New York poultry page and a Texas page. I believe they might be a scammer based on...

I am really upset about it but now I have the male and the...
I know from my first hatched turkey last Spring that it could take up to 4 months to tell the gender of a poult, but I’m hoping for maybe some guesses.
My two turkeys from last year turned out to be two females and I’m in a desperate need of a male because my two bug me all the time. Lol so I...
Last Fall my chicken coop was destroyed by a tornado. I put my purebreds together in the barn until I could get another coop for them. I decided to hatch some of the eggs from the mixes. The eggs are from my Appenzeller hen and either my Orpington or Cream legbar rooster.
This chick came out...
So I put the egg laid today in the incubator but curious if anyone had a Spitzhauben cross And what does it look like? The only roosters I have in the pen are a mauve Orpington and a cream Legbar so I think it’s gonna be an interesting cross.
I’m sorry for the bad picture but its so difficult with such a thick shell. Anyway, last year was my first year with chickens and turkeys I learned a lot but still have problems…like this one.
The Turkeys just started laying the beginning of December, which is winter here in New York. They are...
