How about my coop...made with pallets I pilfered from the back of a furniture store.

I would except I'm afraid I'll get a bunch and then they will ALL hatch and I will be stuck with a ton of chicks!

Would anyone be able to sell me one Ameraucana, one Barnevelder, one Barred Plymouth Rock. Just a little sampler pack if you will. I don't need them right now but will pay to reserve them, delivery made for a month from now. If I could get them for $12 including shipping that would be great!

Thanks guys! I plan on enjoying that egg for all its worth!

I haven't sold eggs but I've run several home businesses (face painting, candles, etc). Farmer's Markets are a great place, sometimes even having to travel an hour away to go to one can still bring lots of profit. Print up some business cards and leave them everywhere. Look for businesses that...

I'm using those plastic milk crates. I bought them for someone for a dollar a piece and I know I've seen them at garage sales too. I read online someone built expensive deluxe nesting boxes and their chickens preferred some old plastic milk crates they had laying around. I figured I would skip...

Quote: I agree, I've never minded putting my picture up on the internet. As long as you aren't giving directions to your house right next to it then there is nothing to link it back to you. My only problem is finding a close up pic I can shrink down, all the pics of myself that I like are...

Found this guy selling mealworms for really cheap! Has great feedback, I just ordered a bunch. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140321963825&ssPageName=ADME:B:EOIBSA:US:1123 or if that doesn't work try this one...

Ok, this will probably make you "advance-chickeners" laugh but can I eat the first eggs a pullet lays? I guess I'm going with the "don't eat the first snow of the season" line of thinking.

Thanks guys! I have some oyster shell on order so it should be here in a couple of days. I will make sure to mix some of that in with their food. I'm so glad 50 pounds of food won't be going to waste! Thanks so much!!

I ordered a 50 pound bag of organic starter food from henspa.com, I was planning on getting chicks but then changed my mind. I wanted to make sure to just get pullets (because of the rooster noise factor) so I am getting some 5 month old buffs. Can I feed the starter food to them? And if so how...

Thank you all very much for the warm welcome!

So I'm not quite a chicken-mama yet but I have all the balls rolling to become so! Got a handyman working on my tractor, food on order, just picked up 2 bales of hay, got some nesting boxes and finally...going to pick up 4 (four month old) buff orpingtons this Sunday! I am soooo excited!!! Oh...
