Ihad purchased 4 silkie chicks from Ideal Poultry in June & all was going well until today when one of my chicks mysteriously dissapeared. I have no clue what happened to her. It also looks like one of my other chicks is a cockerel so I will have to rehome him. Is there anywhere I can get 3 or...

I started my journey with chickens in late May when I decided I really wanted some Silkie chickens. Fast forward to the middle of June I went and picked up Silkie chicks delivered from Ideal poultry from my post office . The weeks flew by and as they grew bigger i knew i had to get a coop for...

so I can afford one or the other and I don't know which to pick. I know the hardware cloth would be the safest route, but the dog kennel gives much more room. I can either afford a 6x6x3 hardware cloth run which will run about $80. or I can get a 10x10x6 dog kennel for $200 but I won't be able...

so I have 4 silkies from ideal hatchery. they're almost four weeks old so I know I needed to starting building a coop. I have been looking all over BYCat all types of coops & I decided on one I really liked. which is the mini coop posted by another BYC member. & I also found another coop on...

I have 11 extra RIR male chicks that got shipped to me to keep my chicks warm in the mail. I am in grafton ohio near lorain county. I need to find homes for all of these roosters or they will have to be euthanized at sexual maturity. the sooner the better. I would feel horrible if I had to cull...

I was expecting a few packing peanuts..I got 8 Silkies and 11 "packing peanuts" for warmth. they look to me like Rhode Island Red but I have no clue. they're little red chicks. all roosters I'm guessing. I have no way to keep...

So I got my order today of silkie chicks. they sent 4 chicks instead of 3. & they sent 11 packing peanuts and they're all roosters. I have no idea what I'm going to do with all of them. So anyways, I had only planned for 3 and I got a coop that was about 3.2 feet by 2 ft. and a run that's 8 ft...

This is my Coop and Run. The run is about 8 ft x 2.5 ft & 2.5 ft high. Is this okay for 2 chickens? As you can see in the picture the roof to the run is not on completely yet. I do plan on adding corrugated plastic roofing on top of the run, along with 2x4s on the outside of the run for...

So I am preparing to purchase my coop next week as my baby silkies are coming soon and I want to get everything ready. for the run I was planning on building something out of 2x4's and hardware cloth that's about 7ft long and 3.5ft wide for 2 or 3 silkies. I am on budget here and after looking...

I'm getting 2 silkies on June 9th so I'm contemplating whether or not I should buy a coop or build one and I came across this one on craisglist. do you think it's a good coop for $50? I would obviously have to construct a better door and a attached run. but other than that?

I'm considering getting Silkie Chickens or maybe ducks, I'm not sure yet which I would rather have. still weighing the pros and cons of both. but I'm pretty sure I want to make an A frame coop. If I decide to go with chickens I've read that the silkies don't really roost because they don't like...

I'm looking for white call ducks or white pekins for sale. 2 or maybe 3.

I have a Little Tykes playhouse, I'm looking on craigslist every day looking for a large wire dog kennel. I live in North-East Ohio and the winters are very cold with snow and the summers are hot and humid. Where I would be putting the kennel it would be standing alone at the back of my yard (No...
