Thanks, I appreciate any and all input:)

Thanks I'll give that a try.

Thanks! My concern is that my feeder and waterer hang and the new chick can't get to them. I'll probably leave the crate in the coop for 6-8 weeks, so that it can get to food and water.

and here's a pic of the little cutie...

Well it's been months since I've been on here, but I could use some advice please:) I have 2 broody banty cochin hens that ended up hatching out a chick. My daughter had been getting eggs, but didn't tell me she left one. Once I found it I didn't have the heart to take it. I've never let them...

:lol:

Yea! I'm in the Walkchalk area.

I feel a case of chicken math about to begin, anyone else? Picked up 11 Friday, have 19 coming this Friday, and now that they are here I'm feeling the itch.

All of my spring pullets have been going strong. I'm getting about 2 dzn a day with 30 girls.

On a positive note, I did just bring home 4 naked necks, 4 cuckoo marans, and 3 blue cochins. Will be getting more next week! I'll post picks soon. On a different topic, are there any other western Pa people on this thread?

Wow, I haven't been on the site since early summer, and there are about 12,000 post to read to catch me up with all of you. Needless to say, that won't happen, but I wanted to express my sincere sadness to hear what happen to Wingstone.. I wish I had a way to get my 4 ducks out to you. Good...

I have one just like it ...mine love it.

Thanks, Fisher and Barbie..... she has been the only chicken fascinated with the pond. I have caught her several times walking the perimeter and perching on the edge. I was hoping to breed the two orloffs next spring, she was quite pretty. She is my avatar pic.

Well I went to clean out the duck pond today, and I found that my only Russian Orloff hen had committed Hari-Kari.....I hope that this wont be a trend among the chickens.
