    Things people say about chickens

    Can they even lay eggs without a rooster? I think brown eggs taste better than white eggs. I can’t eat green or blue eggs, they’re too pretty. Does egg color affect egg taste? Aren’t all eggs just bleached white? My life....

    i have two chicks from my hatch last week that came from same parents. I’m guessing it’s from moms genes but their backs did not get long and fluffy. I can feel the softness... any way... anyone ever seen this? They are happy warm and seemingly healthy

I rubbed her crop and it feels like her neck is curved down, or maybe she’s just sitting that way. When I rub her crop I can hear her breathing...

    My first eggs!

    I'm beyond excited we got our first 2 eggs today! My crested polish (whom no one was sure if she was roo or pullet) and either my jersey giant (I think it was her, they were both in there together) or my Orpington. I can't believe how little the eggs are. Like little Guinnea (sp) eggs I...

    My coops!

    For the babies, we have what I like to call a "brooder coop" it is an old rabbit hutch that we fixed up and made better for housing up to 15 chickens 8 weeks and under. We live in AZ so with our heat lamp in a designated area, sectioned off away from the chicks it stays a good temp...

    Name that baby!!!

    So we got a straight run of some barn mix Babies from a local rescue hatchery that takes in chicks that either need rehoming due to behaviors or just because situations change.

    Black jersey giant cockrel or pullet

    17 weeks old. Barely a comb or wattle pinking in the face, looks the same as my obvious pullet buff Orpington. The tail feathers look so iffy... and it's such a sweet chicken
