I would really enjoy to have this chicks but as I'm in Canada it would be a lot of problems...

Thanks

Well Uncle Frank!  Unless I can suddenly perform miracles, I'll just have to throw a tantrum and get that coop.

Why don't you start keeping them, for the moment I've tried many breeds of chickens and birds species and they are my favorite from that list :

-Laying chickens
-Coturnix
-Bobwhite
-Chukars
-Valley Quail
-Gambel's
-Scaled
-Hungarian
-Mandarin Ducks
-Silkies (chickens)
-Mixed bantams
-Button Quails
-Budgies

Hungarian are lovely little birds, imagine, mine were tame and I got them at 2 months old, imagine yours! Raised by an human, anyway, if it is released, it will be the first one to be shot when hunting will begin... 

Here's a link to one of my two males (the tamest one), I was ''playing with him'' and loved to be take in my hands (I think it's the only birds I got who was like that) : http://www.gbwf.org/francolin/perdix05.html

The only thing is to keep them in pair during breeding.

Have a nice night, it's now 23:05 here and I start to work at 6h AM...

I guess my husband is just going to have to build me that coop!!  Or, I'll turn into this   

      I feel for him and don't even know him.

 They're all the same, huh Chuck?

Well........not completely.......but torture is torture regardless!

I'm just glad that I run things at my place and don't have to deal with such nonsense, although I can not forget the days when things where different.

  You often remind me of Walter Williams.  Are you he?  Related?

I work at a vet clinic and have been taking Horton to work with me every day.  I was thinking today that I better keep him, because he is going to be so use to barking dogs, he will never be scared of them.

p.s Horton is now starting to get wing feathers j41!!

Cool!

How old should Horton be before I turn off his heat lamp and blanket?  I had to move him out of his tupperware and into a small animal cage with the wire over the top today.  He jumped out of his box at work and decided to go walk about.  He ended up coming under the door and into our treatment area.  It's a good thing he turned left instead of right or he would have ended up in the dog kennels.

down from 5 degrees (F) per week until 70 or a good feathering. You can put it in a box adapted for chicks. You take a Rubber maid box and do 2 big holes, put wire over and lamp over on of the wire piece.

I am a vet tech!! Haven't looked at your profile yet... Where do you live? I took a chick and a quail to work. Everyone was very interested... Something different! Good luck!!

[Tonya]

Hey Jaime!  Us vet techs need to stick together!!  I live in Bozeman, MT.  How about you?  I'm sure that I am way older than you are.  Right now, I work in a clinic that sees cats, dogs (small animals) and horses.  Everyone thinks Horton is so cute.  They really like seeing how fast he is growing.  I think he has tripled in size in a week.  He's starting to look real shabby right now because his big boy feathers are starting to come in.

This is a very silly question, but do Huns take baths?
