Before I begin, I am doing my research, so please no comments on how this is not doable or healthy. Chickens used to live off the land before commercial feed so I know it can be done. I have a few people interested in grain free chicken due to allergies and personal reasons. I know Freedom...

I am a firm believer of free ranging. My chickens are overall happier, healthier, and the feed costs drop dramatically. I currently have Cornish X meat birds that were born 2 days before Thanksgiving and they are getting huge. I am thinking about allowing them to free range as well...

I moved my second flock of chickens in with my old flock because of predator issues. I did this about two days ago and everyone is living peacefully. Every morning I let my old flock out because they free range and keep the others locked up since this coop is about 50 yards from their old...

this little one is three weeks old and I believe is an Ameraucana/RSL mix but could be American game too. What does everyone think?

I have 2 black male silkies and one confirmed white male silkie. There will be possible Belgian D'Uccle/White Silkie males as well, but I haven't been able to sex them yet. Since they are roosters, my price will be negotiable but they will not be free. All of the birds have dark wattles...

I am consistently getting double yolkers but I'm not sure which bird it is. Is this unhealthy??

So...I had an extra egg this morning. My Sebright Bantam has been a daily layer for about 2 weeks now. This morning, I had an extra egg that is the same size as hers, but in a different nest box (She will only use the one). She is the only female bantam I have, the others are sex-links. Will...

Hey all! I know there are many ways of integrating. I have two that are about 10 weeks old who have shared a run with my current flock, it was just partitioned off. They have been sharing the run for almost two months, so the chickens see each other daily. Now that I am trying to integrate...
