    Thank you! Agreed, blooms are so much fun! Hopefully you’ll share some pictures of the new blooms once they start! WOW WOW WOW! THATS a gorgeous mammillaria! She fits right in with her surroundings, amazing! She must be very established, that crown is incredibly impressive!

    No, unfortunately I didn’t (yet), but I’ve made some other fantastic purchases🤭. The vast majority are doing great, most are starting to bloom as well! Here are a few very zoomed in pictures I’ve grabbed the last few days. Apologies for the quality, especially on the mammillaria. The buds are...

    Rooster Management Questions

    I see. Hawk doesn’t sound like he’s the hens’ pick; I usually trust the hens more than I trust my own choices. If they’re being forcefully mated (neck grabbing and feather pulling can and does happen with consensual matings) like how you’re describing, then Hawk is a problem. As for Dodo...

    Rooster Management Questions

    It definitely makes sense for extreme aggression to be genetic, but I’ve yet to experience it. Most people on here just don’t hatch and raise up to adulthood enough birds for their personal experiences to guarantee anything. I would at least give the offspring a chance, if you have the space...

    -Why is she acting like that? -Someone told her that this is what the humans smoke and now she’s faking it -Ugh she’s such an attention seeker, like that time she swore she was pregnant after breaking into the pen with the wethers

    @TwoCrows , OMG, you won’t believe what came into stock in the online nursery I frequent! A monanthes! The only problem is, it’s not a polyphylla which are just dreamy. It’s a muralis

    He definitely can. Even at night, chickens are very observant and attentive. How old is he? Usually established males stop crowing at minor inconveniences, since they know that they aren’t threatened by them. Even mature males that aren’t established might crow at night

    What gender am I? Alchemist Farm Azure Egger

    Agreed, it’s a bit early to say anything with certainty, but I’m going to be a little less conservative with my answer and say cockerel. It should be much clearer in the coming weeks

    At three weeks, they would definitely be checking their flight skills, so not totally unlikely indeed!

    RIR gender 5 weeks.

    Ah, seems like you’ll beat me to it. But yeah, something isn’t adding up

    RIR gender 5 weeks.

    Feather sexing doesn’t work unless bred for. Right now nothing says cockerel, or pullet. Seems like you’ll have to wait a little longer. These look quite underdeveloped for 5 weeks. Feathering rate is different for almost every chick, but these seem behind in both feathering rate and size

    How can I ensure a friendly Rooster?

    Agreed, cockerel

    Ugh, I’m terrible at keeping up with threads. Sometimes I completely miss the notifications, other time I open them, react, make a mental note to reply later and completely forget about it later. Apologies. Over two weeks old now, possibly closer to three! How are they? Their colours should be...

    Brooding inside the coop.

    The biggest question is, do you want them to stay broody? Do you want to have more chicks and/or are able to care for them? If the answer to that is no, then breaking them would be the best option. I might be misunderstanding your post, and what you say about taking them off the nest every...

    Looks great! Thanks to you, he’s having a great life now. Coconut huts are always an idea. You could even plant some moss, anubias, bucephalandra, hygrophila, or whatever type of epiphytes you like on top of it. Another idea would be a few low growing crypts. Something like a few parva. They...

    Assorted Bantam chicks, no idea what they are

    First chick is a Mille Fleur D’Uccles. Second chick is a white Pekin/Cochin bantam. Third chick is an Old English Game bantam, probably black breasted red. Fourth chick is a black Pekin/Cochin bantam. Fifth chick is another OEGB. Looks to be white, or Red Pyle. I’m not sure about six. I’ll go...

    Is my 2 week old colored chick a broiler/meat bird? If not, what breed is he?

    He isn’t. What colour are his legs? Most dyed chicks I’ve seen have been leghorns, Red Sex Links, or mixes with white feathering
