I have never ordered from them before. I have gotten Cornish X from McMurray and Welp. I liked McMurray's better because I got more of the same weight. Welp's weights were all over the place and it was frustrating come butchering time because some were over due and some were underdue. I like...

This is amazing. Thanks for sharing!

Okay, since I posted last I got rid of three roosters and gained 3 speckled sussex and 3 black australorps. Chicken math is striking again...

That picture is awesome! My Buff Orpington hen, "Large Marge" is a mousing machine. But she can't keep up with them either, especially when the mice are on the outside and she's on the inside. The mice seem to mostly come out at night.

My indoor cats are terrified of the chickens and the chicks. Someone offered me a cat that was the runt of the litter and never found a home- she was raised around chickens and is a good mouser apparently. They just have too many cats and need to get rid of a couple. If I got a female i'd have...

Last night when I went to shut the doors on the coop I counted 8 mice crawling on the outside walls. I was able to kill 6 of them but the other two got away. Not counting those 6, I've killed 10 mice in the past week. Not to mention I have a family of Chipmunks living underneath the vacant meat...

Ms. Chanty

Ms.Chanty is my favorite chicken in my flock. She is an Easter Egger. Her favorite place to lay her eggs is 6 ft. over the fence, 200ft down the trail into the woods, and deep inside a wild black berry patch where she has made a nest. She was laying her eggs there for weeks every single day...

Any of them with the tufted cheeks and beards are easter eggers. Other than that, you'll have to wait! Do you have a list of what could have been in the assortment?

Patsy sat nice and still for me and let me clean everything out. It was bigger than what I thought. I cleaned it out with warm soapy water, washed it again with warm water, patted it dry and put vaseline on it. She's in a different pen than the rest of the chickens now and is resting and eating...

Thanks for all your help! I'll be going out now to clean her up. I'll report back with the results...

I have a Colombian Wyandotte hen that tried squaring off with a Cuckoo Maran rooster the other night. I didn't notice anything wrong and then this morning I noticed some dry blood on the back of her head. It's not deep by any means, but it does cover a wide surface area. She is acting perfectly...

Thank you for your responses! She hasn't done anything strange like this since then.

I was just outside letting the girls out for the morning. I had a neon pink bucket in my hand that had kitchen scraps in it and was dispersing them around the run. It was beginning to thunder out and I was turning to walk out and one of my EE flew up onto my shoulder. This has never happened to...

Yes, they love it! They still get to come out and freerange when we get home from work, but now they aren't as eager to get out.

The run for my girls wasn't exactly ideal size. We let them free range when we are home, but the 8 hours we are gone they basically get....a dirt pit. They have eaten all the grass so I said enough is enough and added on to create three separate pens so I can allow grass to grow in one and...
