Phew, I'm back...changed email addresses and poof! Lost the notifications...glad to be getting them again.

I love the "Brooder Cam"! I won't be there but they'll be a lot of people with incredible knowledge. Have fun!

How cute!

Can I help with the antibiotics? We met through "the guilded nest" you took our golden comets. I need to repay. Let me know what I can do to help your Roo. This is for Shay.

Who are these cuties?

Quote: That's almost criminal in our day....sad for your sis and cat.

Poor Tippy...we noticed with the heavy snow our "cage" (preditor proof 6x8 area) are showing stress cracks at the joints...must to some reinforcing.

I'm so sorry to hear about the illness. Hopefully UNH can offer a diagnosis... Good luck beating this!

Quote: Thanks. Sorry that I could not make it. I still have the Cuckoo Maran and Brabanter hens. Please let me know if you're still interested and we can work out how to get them to you. We are. We took in two welsummer pullets and need to integrate them with the two older girls. So far, so...

Sorry to hear about your loss Muffi. We did make it to the swap and picked up a couple of young wellsummers.

We had a pesky fox in the yard this spring...lost two of our four....would love to pickup two to four girls that could hang out with our two adult girls on the 18th. Please contact if you can help. Thanks!

We have four golden comets. They reliably come when called and aren't big squakers. The Cukoo on the other hand...

My 38 y.o. sister won't touch our eggs! But, she has no idea where the eggs she buys in the store comes from. I know how my chickens, live, eat.... She's such a germaphobe, yet she won't eat my grls' eggs. Weird.

The comets appear to be laying eggs with very fragile shells. (Almost translucent) They are just over a year old. We have crushed shells for calcium and use Agway's layer feed. When the deformed eggs are laid, they are quickly eaten by the rest. Any suggestions?

I'm with the Agway layer pellets - and lots of treats - veggies

On a hot summer day the girls like nothing more than some cold plain yogurt! It's winter here and I'm on to warm oatmeal and scratch.

Ditto. Got a 1/4 "J" screw and screwed it into the core (bottom) of the cabbage and ran twine up to another "J" screw in the ceiling of the coop. No bad egg smells for me.

Well. I'm not into violence but I had to justify our six girls. I just got our hens about two months ago. Cast offs from a friend who had too many hens in the hen house. I can't tell you how much fun they are and save us $4.00 a week in 'good' eggs from the local market. I tend to spend...

I have six - year olds and they LUV yogurt. I'll sit on the stoop to the coop and I must tell you that it splatters all over...including all over me. But it so much fun to see their actions.

I'm relatively new to chicken raising and I am have a great time with the girls. We have six and each one has it's own personality and place in the coop. I've not been able to find a definitative answer to the question of dogwood berries being ok to eat? They ripen to a dark red in the next...
