Linoleum Coop Floors Give me the pros and cons of linoleum (squares / solid) over wooden coop floors! I have seen a lot of folks using linoleum on their coop floors and seem to love it due to easy clean up. Thank you in advance for your reply post. Pic of Weezer in our coop for me to be able...

Now at seven (7) weeks, this is one of my chicks hatched by my broody silkie. Please see the pics and tell me what you think. I do have one that we know for sure is a rooster by the way it's flocking the other lil ones. And that one flocks Sweetpea. This one usually runs away from that one...

What age does Splash Marans start laying eggs? I keep a calendar from hatch through hatching. I put down on the calendar possible times that my chicken may start laying, so I can keep an eye out in both coop and chicken run for tiny 1st eggs.

One of my new pullets had yellow bubbley poop yesterday, I and didn't think anything of it. But today while researching on chicken health came across some info on Coccidiosis! Is Huvepharma Corid 9.6% Oral Solution safe for my chickens to treat for Coccidiosis? It says for calves! And how much...

Help, Pullet (non laying) has water come out of her vent onto the ground as if she was peeing(?) I have had her 6 days at this point! I purchased two pullets from a lady. When I got home with them, the kennel carrier was wet (and some poop). So I cleaned the bottom of the pullets up and then...

Meet Jimi Hendrix Jr & Maggie May

I haven't posted in some while. But we are enjoying out new polish mix chicks. They are mixed with Black with white crest polish hen and Plymouth Rock Rooster. So it's going to be interesting in seeing them grow and see which characteristics they will take on in looks and demeanor.

Now isn't she a pretty girl! Goldie Grace is her name. And our girl here has gone broody. We can not and do not want roosters, so no fertilized eggs, no baby chicks. After 3 days of refusing to leave the nesting box and puffing up and pecking at us, we used a dog crate to break the broody...

We have had these girls about a week. A gift from our friend. They are the bottom of the pecking order. One came with chicks (not hers, she was a broody mother). After a few days our neighbor whom has a new coop and run wanted the chicks. So we gave them to her. And our Polish Mom, did...

I gave my new neighbor 5 silkie chicks. Wow what a way to welcome a new neighbor to the neighborhood. These chicks were given them me along with their surrogate mama hen. But we meaning me, or the other two neighbors do not keep chicks due to neighborhood requirements, NO ROOSTERS. And it...

Let me introduce: Solid white hen is Pearl (Janis Joplin), white and black hen is Weezer (Steel Magnolias), brown silkie hen is Lou de'philip, and last but not least - the golden silkie is Miss Grace.

Our chickens have been treated with their 1st round of SafeGuard Liquid Goat Wormer for roundworms. We have been discarding the eggs as suggested. Can I feed my hens and pullets the eggs that we would be dis-guarding due to medicated chickens?

Jolene our P. Rock was sitting on her and another hen's eggs and would not come off? (Broody?) I got her off of the eggs and closed all coop doors. And encouraged her to come out to free ranged, enticed her with her fave treat. And after that she seems fine, coming out and free ranging with...

I have a mix of different ages of chickens: two laying hens, one pullet 9 weeks old, one pullet 12 weeks old. We want to put them all together since today they were free ranging side by side pullets and hens without any conflict! We are going on vacation right when the pullets reach age 16...

What type of worms? What to get for my flock to treat worms? And in the second picture, is that two types of worms or shedded lining from one of my chickens. I have 2 hens and 2 pullets.

Well, I named my pullet Joshie-Mae. I asked a question about starting layer feed according to the manufactors feed bag and web-site on starting my two pullets at 16 weeks. She told me to wait until 18 weeks. Then said the picture of the one on the right was not a pullet but a roo. Seller...

She is 9 weeks old. Breeder thought she was a mixed silkie. But I don't see silkie the older she gets.

HELP, Jimi Hendrix needs a new home. Hendrix as we call him is a beautiful Silkie-mix Cockerel. He is the life of the party. All the young girls love him. He is already easy mannered and is calm when my granddaughter age 5 and grandson age 3 holds him. The only problem is our neighborhood...

Pullet or Roo on #1 being the chick on the top pic & #2 being the second pic? I'm purchasing these from a sweet lady. They are silkie mix chicks. She has to check on the date to be able to give me the correct age. And She thinks these are both pullets. I can't have any Roos due to my...
