Thanks so much :) We looked at something like that but we were scared our guardian pup might lick those off. Our chickens and Emma have a special love relationship. lol
I hope this is the right spot for this thread lol. We have decided we want to use id tags on our chickens. We are torn between two different kinds found online. There are the metal leg bands then the plastic ones. any idea which is better and safer for chickens? what age should we put them on...
Hello everyone!
I want to buy 3 hens and 3 roos. I want a size small B good to excellent breeding stock. Located in Floyd Virginia. I will need them shipped if you are more then 3 hours away. Willing to pay a decent price. Had to put a price so I chose 20
Oh I guess I could have explained a little better, sorry I said it wrong. They were supposed to be pullets, not straight run! So we ended up getting 14 roosters and 1 hen when all were supposed to be hens, we just started raising chicks last year so we had no idea. we just trusted the tsc people.
We had a horrible experience with TSC last year, Most of the chicks were not pullets but straight run! and some were total different breeds, and on top of that all our "amercauna" were not ee much less amer. That is why I want to order online this year. thanks
Morning everyone!
I want to put in an order for spring chicks and I was wondering which place is the best in your opinion to order from? Im in Va. Thanks
We do not have Australorps that is the crazy part. We moved them inside as she is sitting on several more eggs and we want her to hatch them out too. The mom is our buff orpington. Our Rooster got killed around the time she turned broody so we figured none of those eggs were fertile and we were...
We had a pleasant surprise today! I heard peeping in our coop and found these 3 little babies. (pics) now any idea what they are lol?

I have 2 broody hens. Each had her own nest in the coop and things were going fine. Well this morning when i let my girls out I noticed both hens were on the same nest. They were fighting over the same nest and cracked open 5 little chicks. They was blood and goop everywhere but the chicks were...
I have been manually turning. I didnt want ot risk the auutoturner and I had it running for 2 days before i put the eggs in there and it was always at the same angle. THank you
Hi guys I bought this incubator recently and i have a question about the autoturner. when i put the incubato in the thing it is at a very steep angle and it does not seem to be working. Also the water just leaks out of the trays in the bottom due to the angle. am I doing something wrong or is it...
I read through all this and Im like you guys who has the desire or the time to come on here just to fool us chicken nuts! I want an update! I liked the "shootout" even if he may have added Fire for dramatic effect so what im hooked! UPDATE UPDATE like you guys I was supposed to be doing...
I have asked the farm owner that borders ours to dig out the pictures of the MOUNTAIN LION they killed that was bigger then his 4 year old son. I saw the darn thing with my own eyes and while I am no expert i know what i saw. lol While they are not supposed to be here that doesnt not mean they...
I candled today and wanted to cry. I only have 4 chicks developing out of 14! I wont bother the eggs until later on but there were no signs. one had the horrible red spot! I am praying my 4 make it the rest of the way and Im really hoping the other eggs are just slow developers( I know i know im...
Ok point being im not going to argue and UNLESS you live in Va and can prove that there are no mt lions here then you can stop implying that i am lieing, I have seen them with my own eyes LOL

LOL Someone didn't read the thread methinks.
First I doubt there are mt. lions in VA. Second check the size of that animal's head compared to the body and then look at those OP's photos again. Oh yeah, find the strip down the Mt. lion's tail.
There are most certianly Mt lions in...
