Hello BYCers... Moved from the farm back to the city, chickenless for 1.5 years, but alas, I placed a chick order this week! New fluffy butts arriving Feb. 18th!

How do I keep them out of my garden?

Having serious raccoon issues since moving to Portland, and I want to get these girls a safer home. 2 are Easter Eggers and one is a Buff Orpington (and HUGE!). They are all 1 year old. Email me at [email protected] if you are interested. Thanks! This Easter Egger is PJ. She has...

I have one broody hen sitting on a 15-egg clutch. I doubt they will all hatch because she can barely cover them all with her body. Since this hen went broody, about 10 days ago, we have not found any more eggs. There are no new eggs being added to the clutch and there are none to gather...

Trooper (the black one) was outside with his buddy Martha Stewart (the white one) and he started to crow! He was flapping his "wings" and strutting about, doing his best to cock-a-doodle-doo, though I must admit, was weak, at best These offspring are from Purple Chicken's Silkies. They are...

We are buying my parent's old house in Portland. It was built in the 1950's and needs LOTS of updating. The kitchen and bath are completely unuseable as is. It needs flooring in all the main living spaces, bath, and utility room. It also needs a lot more than that done, but these are the...

Last year, not enough eggs. This year, too many. So I am pulling in about 14 a day, mostly fertilzed, and all quite delicious. I keep trying to get people hooked on them by passing them free dozens. I have one woman totally sold. I'm her pusherman. But other than her, no one else is...

My Silkies are filthy dirtbags. They collect crud every which way, and I'm not sure how to keep them cleaner. Must I bathe a chicken? Must I?

I am thinking about retiring from the internet for awhile. It is like I make lots of friends fast, but at the same time, I lose them fast, as well. I don't know... am I a weirdo? Cuz like you guys know me pretty well, and I think I come across as pretty positive and funny. And I'm not up for...

I am moving back to the Portland area this summer, and I wanna ask a couple of questions: 1) is everyone currently keeping more than 3 chickens, or is that my imagination? Do you think I can get away with keeping more than 3? 2) where do you buy your feed and supplies, and what are the...

This is your mission: Write one paragraph of an ongoing chicken story. The next poster writes the next paragraph and so on. You may end a chicken story anytime you like, BUT you must write a second paragraph to start a new chicken story for the next person who posts. Your paragraphs must...

We are still getting 4 to 7 eggs a day. The EE's are laying, the BSL are laying, and the BO's on occassion. The temps are around 5 degrees at night, the coop is unheated, and still they are as happy as can be. My DH has been going up there a couple times a day, swapping out the frozen water...

I have been getting a few Chick-n-box messages asking where I am these days. I just wanted to let you know that I am fine, and that my reason for not being around much at BYC is that I am busy researching autism information. Since our oldest daughter was diagnosed last month, I have been...

I have been receiving LOTS of seeds from our swap/give away a few weeks ago. I want to personally say THANK YOU to all of you who sent some to me. I am building a nice collection for our "friendship garden" next spring, and look forward to the many more items to arrive we traded for. THANKS...

Actually, he marked which eggs were evil, and which eggs were nice, so we'll see just which ones have the power to emerge! It is the classic conflict between good and evil in a hatch to the death! They are already on Day 2!

It hurts so bad I think I'm going to die! OW OW OW OW OW! Since it is basically a resurfacing of chicken pox, can I accidentally give it to my chickens?
