OK. Some of us started the 29 days of giving challenge on January 29th. Link here: https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=290217 About 12 days into the challenge, it was discussed that we might start doing a challenge each month. We don't know as we start this on February...

I would like to use this new image that was posted earlier this week. Can you help me?

I tried via a link in an email notification, and then by going through the website. I tried several times each way. I got this error message each time. It was in a red box. (If that is helpful) An error was encountered File: /home/backyard/public_html/forum/include/dblayer/mysql.php Line...

I wonder if it is easily possible to add a place to manually enter a page on a topic so that a person could navigate back several pages rather than having to multiple click through the page numbers. This would be useful when trying to find out something that a person remembers from a previous...

This is an area that you can post your Recipe for your item in the recipe book that will be handed out at the gathering in February. The idea is to give me the recipe for your dish. I will put it in the book and also make a card that can be placed by your dish so that everyone can avoid foods...

I have changed my sig line a few times, and it seems that each time the blank space following gets bigger. I tried to eliminate empty returns and such, but it doesn't work. Anybody have any ideas?

When I went to let the chickens out into the freezing cold this AM, I say small droplets of blood on the sides of the coop and on tops of surfaces. Also saw some on the back of my white hen. I doesn't really have the appearance of blood flow, more splatter. Everyone seems normal, but they are...

I have a Red Hen. She looks like a NHR, only darker than some of the pictures I have seen. But not as dark as a RIR, and she has striped bright red and brown hackles. She is a great little layer. In her first week of laying, she has laid 5 eggs. What a girl, right? Well, she has begun (on...

So I went into the coop and found 3 eggs on Wednesday. All 3 green one a little bit more olive tint. I figured all from Willow (white americauna/EE) because she has been egg songing a lot! Next day Roz (BR) lays a light brown egg right in front of me, as I was retrieving one the Audrey had...

I am sure I saw a tutorial on uploading pictures on here. I can't find it now. Anybody know the link?

Are there any breeds of Red Pyle colored chickens that come in standard size and preferably a heavy breed? Has anybody got any experience cross breeding with a red pyle breed.

I want to start learning about chicken genetics and don't have much money to build my library. If you could name one book not to miss, what would it be? Or do you know of a good book that isn't very expensive? Do you have any books that you would like to part with for a small price and...

I am thinking of an Orpington and something else. I would want to be able to cull the roosters quickly from the main flock. I want to have a large legged bird, hence the Orpington. Any advise, and or experience with this?

I plan to go to Battleground one day next week to get soy-free feed at Rainbow Farms. Anybody want to share an order and the delivery costs (part of the gas expense) with me? I am also hoping to meet someone else from BYC for lunch or dinner. Any takers?

OK. I finally got up the nerve to attempt my first butcher. A few have been crowing, and even though they re much too small to make a good meal, I know the neighbor who has been harrassing me with calls to police and code enforcement will be looking for anything to report. So, at 6:30 this...

I have wanted a Laced Wyandotte since I first started looking back in April. The hatchery didn't have any when I placed my order. So just a week and a half ago I took delivery from My Pet Chicken of 3 Cuckoo Marans, 3 Welsummers, 1 Delaware and 1 Silver Laced Wyandotte. Well all of the...

Is there a chance of getting a list compiled of things that a person can do to try to fight city hall. Something at your fingertips that wouldn't require trying to sort through posts in order to be actively working on the problem. Names of organizations that have helped others. Facts that...

So, some of you may not know that I am disabled. I have a form of autonomic dysfunction that keeps me pretty much homebound and inpacts everything that I do. Today, the animal control officer visited my backyard. He said that I was in compliance with all current ordinances, but let me know...

So, one of the latest fads is eating cocks combs. I have seen some just as is, and some made into a dessert. My dad wants to try it, and I am probably game too. Has anyone here eaten it? How do you fix it? Got a recipe to share?

I keep looking in the coffee section in the BYC online store, and not mugs or other coffee stuff yet. I think coffee and chickens go together so well. I love to take my coffee and sit out and watch my chicken tv in the morning after I feed them.
