I am SO excited! I've never ordered hciks in the mail before and was a little anxious, especially since I only ordered 10. But Cackle Hatcheries did a phenomenal job packing them and they arrived exactly on schedule. Nobody's hurt or splay-legged and they are all drinking and eating from the...

I'm not sure how to get the pics to show up here, but here's a link to an album of them: http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/sredir?uname=rsiebenmann&target=ALBUM&id=5455557246378646577&authkey=Gv1sRgCJXFnrT92a3V8wE&feat=email They just arrived today and are a variety of 10 "heavy pullets" from...

Hey all, I'm looking for 8 or so female chicks or very young pullets. Our hens are at the tail end of their laying careers and we want to have a new flock grown up and ready to lay by the time our current birds call it quits. We love in a residential area so our one absolute rule is No Roosters...

Looking to add some good egg-layers to my flock... I'd prefer interesting varieties but my main criteria is healthy, young, pest-free and definitely female! I live in a suburban area and roos aren't a possibility Please reply or send me a message if you have any for sale in the Atlanta area...

I have a small flock in the Atlanta area and half of them are dropping off in productivity now that they're getting close to three years old. I don't have the heart to butcher or eat them, but will need to get rid of them to make room for some egg-layers. Would anyone in the area who's...

Hey all, I'm in the market for a few more hens to round out my flock... I'm looking for good layers who are happy to be spoiled pets. All my girls are dark colors so just for variety I would love a few that are buff or white, particularly buff orpingtons or fun breeds like cochins or brahmas.

Hey all, I recently built a much bigger coop for my chickens and want to be sure my girls will be warm enough. You guys in Canada and Michigan will be laughing at me, no doubt, but I always worry for them Anyway, I live in Atlanta, so the temps are never terribly cold, but it's been pretty...

First of all, I've read through a lot of these posts and fully intend to take the bird to be necropsied if possible, but unfortunately I have to be at work this afternoon and tomorrow so I'm worried about my other birds in the meantime. Any advice at all is welcome! She is a white Brahma...

Hi all, I'm hoping someone has had this problem and can enlighten me. I recently built my gals a much bigger coop, and when I moved them into it I introduced several new hens. A week or two later I added three banty hens. Not one of the non-bantam chickens has laid an egg since the move...

Hey all, I hope this is the right forum for asking this- if not, I would appreciate being directed to the correct one I live in Atlanta and have a small backyard chicken flock. Recently we had a predator attack, and lost 2 of my 5 hens. I went a little nuts and built a much larger coop with a...
