This full-color guide identifies classes, breeds, and varieties of chickens, which come in many colors, sizes, and shapes. A class is a group of breeds. Breed means a group, each of which possesses a given set of physical features. Variety means a subdivision of a breed. Revised in 2018 to include new standards (20 pages; 2018).

One thing I observed over and over during my time in a farm store is that everyone loves the appeal of a freshly hatched chick. Old people, young people, city folk, country folk, people of all races and cultures; almost every single person would stop to peek at the fluffy butts of little chicks. It is as if chickens have been intertwined with humans for so many years that we have the instinct to check in when we hear those peeping sounds. It would be a rare occurrence to have someone not stop and smile at the chicks for at least a brief second. They are the universal symbol of cuteness. And nothing beats getting to help someone pick out their first batch of chicks to take home. I loved seeing their excitement.

Puppies play in a cage at a pet store in Columbia, Md., in 2019. New York has become the latest state to ban the sale of cats, dogs, and rabbits in pet stores in an attempt to target commercial breeding operations. Maryland banned such sales in 2020. Jose Luis Magana/AP  hide caption

Pet shops have argued that the law will do nothing to shut down out-of-state breeders or increase their standards of care and said it would result in the closures of the dozens of pet stores remaining in New York.

California enacted a similar law in 2017, becoming the first state to ban such sales. While that law requires pet stores to work with animal shelters or rescue operations, like New York is doing now, it does not regulate sales by private breeders.

A handful of states followed. In 2020, Maryland banned the sale of cats and dogs in pet stores, triggering pushback from shop owners and breeders who challenged the measure in court. A year later Illinois barred pet shops from selling commercially raised puppies and kittens.

In New York, pet advocacy groups have long called for a full shutdown of facilities that raise and sell animals for profit, saying animals are raised in inhumane conditions before they are shipped off to stores.

"Ninety percent of our business is selling dogs. We're not going to survive this," said Ortiz, who considers the ban unfair to stores that work with responsible breeders. "They're closing the good actors along with the bad actors."

Jessica Selmer, president of People United to Protect Pet Integrity, a New York coalition of pet store owners, called the law "careless" and "counterproductive" and said she hopes the governor will "consider legislative remedies to some of the pitfalls of the bill."

"One pet store near me, they get dogs from all over the Midwest and different large facilities, and you have no idea where they come from and who the breeder is. People are really clueless and take the puppy," Haney said.

Why are American landscapes (e.g., housing developments, shopping malls) so uniform, despite the well-known American penchant for independence and uniqueness? We propose that this paradox can be explained by American mobility: Residential mobility fosters familiarity-seeking and familiarity-liking, while allowing individuals to pursue their personal goals and desires. We reason that people are drawn to familiar objects (e.g., familiar, national chain stores) when they move. We conducted 5 studies to test this idea at the levels of society, individuals, and situations. We found that (a) national chain stores do better in residentially mobile places than in residentially stable places (controlling for other economic and demographic factors; Study 1); (b) individuals who have moved a lot prefer familiar, national chain stores to unfamiliar stores (Studies 2a and 2b); and (c) a residential mobility mindset enhances the mere exposure and familiarity-liking effect (Studies 4 and 5). In Study 5, we demonstrated that the link between mobility and familiarity-liking was mediated by anxiety evoked by mobility.

Most people who visit fish stores are beginners, so research what kind of fish they like to buy by reading articles on the top beginner fish for freshwater aquariums. Beginners also tend to keep smaller fish tanks, so go with nano species instead of oscars or goldfish. Smaller animals can be kept in both little and giant aquariums, so there is a higher demand for them compared to monster fish.

Most local fish stores are independently owned, small businesses that are low on cash, and therefore they will likely offer you to pay you store credit. However, the best practice is for you to get paid in cash. This method helps you create a clearly documented paper trail of all expenses and revenue for tax reporting purposes. If the fish store cannot pay you in cash, then get an inexpensive credit card reader for your smartphone. Your business suddenly becomes more legitimate and professional because you can accept cash, credit, or check.

Pricing is a tricky subject because you are competing against the wholesaler that the local fish store buys from and they can sell at very cheap prices. Therefore, whatever you offer to the fish store must be either at a better price than the wholesaler or at a better quality that the customer can instantly see. If your fish are priced right, look fantastic, and never die, then the customer develops a great impression of the fish store, and the fish store wants to work with you more. It becomes a win-win-win situation for everyone.

Before you approach the fish store, do your research to find out how much fish cost, depending on their size, quantity, and quality. Then, instead of asking the fish store how much they will pay you, you can make the first offer. Share your market data with the store manager and what price you believe customers will pay for your fish. The lower the price, the faster the store can sell them. (Remember, guppy lovers may pay $50 in an online auction for a pair of specialty guppies, but the general public may only pay $20 in a store for those same guppies.) Then, negotiate your price to be approximately 25% of the total customer price. If the store disagrees with your assessment, they can always try selling the sample fish you provided at a different price and then figure out your cut afterwards.

Macy's store manager John Sparks said the holiday tree lighting is this Thursday and Santa will be taking visitors at Macy's at a new location this year overlooking Union Square. Puppies and other pets will be on view in the store's windows for an adoption program by the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.

Although once nearly wiped out, the Trakehner breed is well into the process of recovering. Today it is the smallest in number of the warmblood breeds, with a population only about one-tenth of the numbers of other breeds. However, because approved Trakehner stallions are so often used to improve other breeds, there is much more Trakehner blood in the warmblood world than shows by registration.

The Rare Breeds Program at Colonial Williamsburg is dedicated to reintroducing and preserving breeds on the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy's critical list. Each spring new baby animals are born, continuing this important effort. Learn more about the Rare Breeds program and plan a trip to see them!

There are many more duck breeds in the world than the ones in your backyard or local lake! Take a look at the most popular duck breeds in the U.S. & learn more about why Maple Leaf Farms exclusively raises White Pekin Duck.

Mallard is frequently hunted as game and Muscovy and Moulard breeds are served in restaurants occasionally. The White Pekin duck is the most widely used breed since it has a tender, mild flavor that is not "gamey" like other types of duck marketed in the United States.

White Pekin - the Maple Leaf Farms Duck - accounts for 95% of duck consumption in the US. Years ago, White Pekin ducks were brought from China to Long Island, which served as the center of the U.S. duck industry. White Pekin duck offers a tender, mild meat that is preferred by most Americans and adapts to a wide range of flavor profiles and cuisines. It is also lower in fat and higher in protein than the other breeds.

I have quite a few molly fry that I am going to sell to my local fish store. I have talked with the owner a while back and she said she would buy some from me once they were ready. How much should I charge for them? I bought them from Petco for $4.49 a each. Is there a minimum I should take for them?

The way it normally works is the store will tell you how much they will pay. You can sell them to individuals but as to how much it depends on a number of factor including size, type, market value (how much stores charge), and how much people are willing to pay. e24fc04721
