Thank you! I'll get them moved outside!

We have 10 four week old Cornish Rock's. I was wondering if we can move them outside yet to the coop? The smell so bad! We chanage bedding frequently, and they still are super stinky. We live in the Upper Penn. of Michigan, and our temps right now are anywhere from 55deg to 72deg during the days...

We adopted a 1 year old Blue Ameracauna Chicken about 6 weeks ago. I didnt expect her to lay right away, but she still has not. She had been laying before we got her, and i figured with the move and stress it might be a couple weeks until we got a egg from her. She was acting broody for the...

What do I do if she is "egg bound"??

Yes they get to Free Range, and I have checked everywhere in the coop and no blue/green eggs yet!

We adopted a 1 year old Blue Ameracauna Chicken about 6 weeks ago. I didnt expect her to lay right away, but she still has not. Is that normal? She had been laying before we got her, and i figured with the move and stress it might be a couple weeks until we got a egg from her. Well, nothing yet...

Thanks! I'm hoping for the blueish color eggs! The guy that I bought her from states he gets blueish eggs from his EE's and one that lays a pinkish color too. She is already laying, so we will find out shortly!

Just wondering if anyone that has a Blue Ameraucana Hen can tell me what color eggs I should expect to get from her. ? I know they are called EE's, so I am thinking the bluish-green eggs?? Thanks!

What kind of vitamins do I give her and how do I give them to her? Is she okay to leave with the other chickens since she is otherwise healthy?

She acts fine, other than her neck being twisted in a funny posistion. She is eating (sideways) and drinking water and acting otherwise normal. She can hold her neck in a normal posistion, but she keeps twisting it from side to side acting like she is going to twist it in a complete circle...

Thanks. I posted it there too, but no responses.

Im wondering if I have a Chicken with a cold. She is holding her head in a funny sideways posistion and twisting her neck around as if she were going to spin her head in a complete circle. Some one told me she could be "congested" and have a cold. She is eating and drinking. Just acting odd...

-OR- should I be concerned that its 'Wry neck' ?? If so how do I treat that?? Vitamins?
