    Going on Vacation soon, how to manage chickens?

    I am going on vacation soon for two weeks, what do you think I should do? I have a flock of 15, (9 hens, and 6 young chicks that I keep in separate coops.) I have heard of chicken sitters but I have found none in my area. Is there an automatic dispenser or any device that can keep my chickens...

    Chick cannot stand up.

    I just picked up 14 chicks from ideal poultry and 2 of them could not stand up. One died this morning and one is limping around. I am afraid it is going to die like the other one. Has anyone dealt with this kind of problem? If so, the how did you treat it? Thanks in advance.

    Ideal Poultry

    I wanted to buy a small order of chicks. I heard they ship with a minimum of $30 order total and $7 handling fee. My question is, do they ship for free or do they charge a shipping fee at the end of the order? Thanks.

    Similar characteristics.

    I actually went ahead and got 6 chicks from a local pet store. 3 cream legbars, 2 (olive eggers), and one mystery Cochin? My concern is that the (olive eggers) are actually barred rocks.
