@AmielDionisio 22 weeks is very young, he may not be fully mature. The bubbles and foam sounds like what happens when the bird fails to produce sperm, sometimes you can squeeze urates out instead. You can tell the urates by their more grainy or stringy texture, and sometimes a slightly yellow c...

  @Neilraymondestefano If he's producing sperm, it should be fertile. 5 months is sexually mature for a lot of chickens, and I think being too young is more likely to cause problems with the hens eggs than the cocks sperm. Most breeders won't breed their birds until they're at least a year old, b...

  @Neilraymondestefano Try AI before feeding them. If they aren't empty, you will get poop.

  @benophillis Hope this is helpful for you and your family! I know Cochins and Silkies can both be tough to breed naturally.

  @Hatokiss It's possible. Domestic chickens are a cross of all four wild junglefowl species, and only certain birds are fertile in some of those crosses. I believe Green x Red is the cross where only males have some fertility, females have none. So I have a lot of hope that there's another spec...

  @Hatokiss I actually saw photos of some of those on the feathersite! They look really cool, make me really want to try hybridization some day, lol. I think cool things could come from some of these hybrids if someone gets lucky and the chicks are ever fertile.

  @Hatokiss Very cool, good luck with your hybrid project! Natural hybrids are pretty rare, I hope you get some good results!

  @beawdasa You can pluck them out, or I usually trim them down to the skin with scissors. They won't grow back as fast that way, just be careful not to actually cut the skin.

@beawdasa You may want to just try again... and again. Partridge are nowhere near as tame as chickens, and he may have been freaked out and not at all in the mood the first time. If you can get him used to being handled, that will probably help, try to end interactions with him feeling confide...

  @ruff148 All the books say you only have to do it about once or twice a week for each hen you're inseminating. I do it everyday so that I don't forget and miss a day or something. You should start getting fertile eggs almost immediately, and you should keep doing it for as long as you want fert...

  @3031607 Try doing a google search for the pipettes and see if any real stores show up. I'm not sure if they're something you can get through a store, I believe they are a medical item. You might be able to talk to your veterinarian and ask if they can order some for you.

  @noori1577 It's very easy once you get it figured out. It's completely safe, just make sure you don't hurt the bird while you're learning. You shouldn't have to pinch hard at all.

  @CeeEmmz The Cubalaya is pure from Tim Bowsher's line, but it's been several years since I got my start from him. Our birds are still pretty similar looking.

  @MrAleper Technically, I think it should work for Lovebirds. I know that they do AI with English Budgies. All the parts are in the same place (testicles, vent, etc), the difference is in the size and level of trust in each bird. If the bird is really wild and not accustomed to being held, it'l...

  @LovemyBabyjou It should work, I guess the trick would be getting the quail to cooperate, since they're considerably more wild than a chicken.

  @SassyMustang1980 It really works, thousands of sperm are in that one drop. All the literature says you only need to AI a hen a couple times a week, but I usually do it daily just so it's part of my routine (plus if I have to be away, I'll know she'll be fertile for a few days).

I'm not sure why his belief in an 'invisible sky wizard' matters to anyone. He's not trying to push it on you, he's not attempting to pass laws in line with it.
