    red or yellow heat lamp?

    So I am preparing for winter, and I was wondering if I should use the clear/yellow heat lamps, or should I use a red one. I don't know if either one is better, I am worried that the bright light is probably bad for them, but then, does the red one have any disadvantages? I tried the ceramic...

    Quail and Ramps

    I recently acquired some coturnix quail to keep in my suburban backyard, and when doing research on housing I couldn't find much information on how quail do with double level hutches/cages. I ended up buying this rabbit hutch (Wooden Rabbit Hutch) and was worried the quail wouldn't figure out...

    Chicken with Yellow Crust on His Comb

    Hello! A few days ago we bought a Serama Roo and when we got home, I noticed he had some yellow crust on his comb. I have sprayed it twice with Vetericyn, but I don't think it's done anything. I also noticed that he spends most of the day napping on the roost, but I think that might have...

    We have to give our rooster medication twice a day. Because we need to go inside the cage that part of the process is difficult because the rooster goes into a panic. Once he catches him I am able to pill him with ease but it is the catching part in the cage that is difficult. Should we first...

    Question about keeping hens in cages (to determine egg color)

I know keeping chickens in cages for an extended period of time is a no no, but what if you put them in a cage for a small amount of time (at most a week)? Of course, they have acess...
