Got my order of ornamental layers and feather footed fancies this week! They are all healthy and adorable. Any idea what this little fluff may be?

Hi everyone! I'm a chicken lady who's recently made the jump to ducks. My husband brought some home from the feed store. Big surprise! Luckily I had a brooder set up for some chick's I'm getting next week. I'm fairly certain we have 7 runners and one crested sort. If anyone has a positive ID for...

Quick question....the rooster I just wrote about also still has his spurs, they are still growing in to be exact. Do I need to remove them or trim them? He's not aggressive and I would rather avoid unnecessary body part removal, but if it's an "injury waiting to happen" is that something I need...

I've been reading through this thread and it's very interesting! I wasn't planning on ever having roosters. I was always a little nervous about having one since I have three young children who love to go play with our ladies. I bought a group of chicks this summer however, and the guy threw in...

My Ameracauna mutt rooster, Uriel, knows his name. The second I step out the door and call for him, he comes running! Follows me around like a big, feathery puppy. Pretty sure my main hen, Ruby knows her name as well. She's spoiled and I'll i all her over to the fence for extra treats sometimes.

:thumbsup. Good tip! I'll have to remember that one.

I've had a few slightly frozen eggs and we ate them scrambled. Tasted fine and no one died :)

Hunting isn't about wanting to hurt something. It's about land management and tasty, tasty venison and turkey and whatnots (among other reasons). Not trying to be combative or anything, but a woman can enjoy the hunt and still be feminine and kind hearted. I'll show myself out now. Hope you can...

No. I don't know. As a female hunter this perplexes me. Educate me?

Has anyone had any experience with the "rarest of rare" group of Mcmurray's hatching eggs? I know I would not be getting anything show quality, I just think it would be a fun surprise to see what I could end up with. If anyone has purchased and hatched these eggs, I would be curious about what...

AmeriKinda :lol:

Oooo this is fun! I'll play too. Buff Orpingtons: Ruby, Piper, Khaleesi, and Cersei Ameracaunas/EEs: Jane, Hestor, Penelope, Cookie Dough(my son's chicken lol) and one yet to be named. SL Wyandottes: Meg, Cass and two girls yet to be named. RIR: Red lol Birchen Cochin: Apollonia Barred Rocks...

Out of my flock, I really love my buff orpingtons. They have sweet personalities, are very cold hardy and they have the cutest big fluffy bottoms around. Good luck with your decision! Let us know what you get.

My husband thinks there's something wrong with me, I laughed so hard at this. :lol:

I just found out that I'll be getting my first incubator this Christmas! Weeee! After I've practiced hatching a couple of times I reeeaaally want to get some Iowa Blue eggs to hatch. Yay! That is all. Sorry for my outburst :lol:

:lol: That picture is great. This is why I love chickens, all their silly little personalities. I'd love to see her being followed by a bunch of cute little chickies.I'll keep my fingers crossed for spring! Thanks for all your help.
