Quote: Yeah you need to give them light. I have a 2 watt bulb on a timer. CFL 2700 kelvins, 80 lums. I only have 4 speckled sussex and get 3 eggs a day. Even yesterday and today. It was 20f last night. I have the light in the timer where I put an outlet. (This pic dont show the light) Gives...

All the light suggestions are too bright. I have a 2 watt cfl. You want more of a red light range 2700K. When you get higher then that say the 5000k range is not good for the chickens. Its more blue. You want it just bright enough for them to see the food and water. I have mine set to come...

Yes they look like pullets. Mine are 16 weeks now and no crowing....

Tinaisodd, if your going to process your chickens you should have got cornish. But the rock is a good dual purpose. You only have one of them, but why process that one and lose all the eggs? The speckled sussex and buff orps are all around the best bird IMO. With the australorp third. And...

OK like I said call him. He has so much stuff. I gave the craigslist post with his #. Here is his facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/robert.schuster Now whoever calls ask what he has, write it down and post back here for all of us. It would be appreciated.

Quote: How did you get this #? The bottle says 6 days for slaughter. It would be 10 days then six. So 16 days start to finish. And if you read the UK sites it states that flubenvet has no egg withdrawl time. Just meat for 7 days. Its states to put the powder Fubenvet in the feed for 7...

Quote: Yes open the boxes. They need time to look around and see the fake egg you put in. It shows them that another chicken may have laid an egg there. Mine are 14 weeks and I just opened the nest boxes. They should all be roosting so they will not go in there to sleep or poop. They go in...

Quote: Went there. She has nothing and keeps here place under lock and key. A kind of odd thing IMO. Could not get any info from her. Real hush hush and met at the gate. Could not get into the domain...LOL. I went there because not one phone call or e mail was returned. So I physically went...

Quote: She have web site or contact info? Jersey chickens has nothing. He lost power from the storms and lost a lot of eggs. Plus the others that posted sites that have them, yes its all good but far drive to Lancaster. Or wherever the others are. I am looking local NJ. Driving...

I am in the Howell area. I just found the Jersey chickens website. Been trying to call but no answer. You see I want to add to my flock and looking for chickens in the same age range. Here is the site if anyone does not have it. I think I will take a ride over there later...

Hi, Still have any speckled sussex?

The fan is up high on top of the nest box. It actually brings air in from the vents that are under the eaves and just blows it across the roof line and out the other eave across the way, So brings in outside air and moves the heat out. The window does not open and the roost is down lower...
