Hi everyone,
I used to buy chicks from a hatchery called Efowl. I had good experiences with them in the past but I'm surprised to see some Bycers have had difficulties with them in more relatively recent years (2014-2016). I always used to get spring chick orders from them in the late...

Hello everyone, I am relatively new to chickens as I have been raising ducks originally. I noticed my Orpington pullet poops an occasional pasty brownish-yellow paste. All her other poops look perfectly normal with a white cap on top. This Orpington is 15 weeks and seems to be very healthy...

Hi, everyone,
I am getting three hens for my backyard this spring because I have an old duck coop that isn't in use right now. I was debating whether I should get some black australorps or buff orpingtons. I need a breed that is relatively quiet, produces lots of eggs, docile, and extremely...
