Hi everyone so I just got two new chicks and they’ve been in the brooder for about 7 minutes or so and the lavender orp has not stopped doing the lonely chirp/calling for the other chicks. Usually my chicks would stop doing this call after 1 minute of being back together but she has not stopped...

Hey everyone so February is coming up and I know most hatcheries are going to start getting chicks hatched and I was wondering if I’m able to pre order chicks like place an order now and have them ship them out once the actual chicks hatch? Or do I have to wait the day they hatch?

Hey everyone, so I have 11 chickens 5 of which are 15 week old pullets. So my question is why is my 15 week old Dominique squatting?

Hey everyone so recently I added two new chicks into my second flock of 3 and my BO and EE we’re treating them fine just a little bit of dominance pecking. On the other hand Kim K my white leghorn was being extremely bossy and not letting them eat or drink so I put her in time out(a little cage...

Hi everyone! I am planning on hatching some eggs in an incubator for the first time around December-January. I would love if you guys could give me tips or help me understand temp, what humidity should be at, lockdown etc. Thank you guys in advance and I’m very excited to hatch chicks!

Hey eveyone, so this morning I woke up and went out to change my chickens water and noticed my Dominique was acting weird. She had her wings dropped and was standing in place, so I decided to get some mealworms and see if she would start going crazy for them as usual. I started giving them to...

Hey everyone, so I’m currently quarantining my three new baby chicks and I noticed my 3 week old EE had a reddish poop. I don’t have pics so I’ll explain the best I can, the actual poop wasn’t red there were red stringy pieces that looked gelatinous. I know they shed intestinal lining so I...

Hey everyone, I’ve posted about this before once she was 3 weeks old with her sister who I also thought was a cockerel we don’t think her sister is anymore but we are still suspicious about cream. She is now 6 weeks about to be 7 weeks in two days. Her comb kept on getting bigger and redder...

Hey everyone! So tomorrow I’m going to get some more chicks and was wondering what breeds you guys suggest. They have barred rocks, cuckoo marans, buff Orpingtons, production blues, and turkens. I’ve had all of those breeds before but it’s been a while since I’ve had any of them and would like...

I know this is a little young but I have 4 week old chicks and both of my cuckoo marans (expecting one to be a golden cuckoo maran) have large combs at this point. The reason I’m questioning it this early is because the rest of the chicks don’t have very large combs at all. Is this just...

Hello everyone, I recently purchased 6 chicks two of which are cuckoo marans (listed as silver cuckoo marans on the website). They are two weeks old and one of the cuckoo marans have copper/brown colored tips on most of her feathers. I do not know if this happens sometimes since I have not owned...
