Thank you!

Thank you both. I've made it so that the water will drip, in hopes that they would see where it was coming from. They have had some water, just nothing substantial. I will try to touch there beaks to the actual nipple tomorrow as well as add a bowl of water. I was only touching their beak to the...

I just recently installed a Nipple waterer with 2 nipples for my 2 girls and they don't get it. I've tried to show them, removing other water sources, keeping them contained in the run (instead of free ranging like usual) and they don't get it. I read that they will eventually get thirsty enough...

Hello! I recently installed 2 nipple waterers in my girls run. I only have 2 of them. One is about 3 years old and the other is just under a year old. They will not touch it! I've tried over and over to show it to them and they have no interest. They normally free range but today I've decided to...

Thank you CT! My Red Star is great because she's an excellent layer and pet. From what I read all of my breed options are, I'm most concerned (if I need to be) on what breed will integrate best with her breed? And are easy to raise since I'm fairly new.

Thank you for the advice! Im glad everything worked out for your flock. I believe my hen is close to 4 years old. I've had her for almost 3 years. I have had experience integrating not too long ago (and lost my baby to a predator). We now have a new more secure coop. I like the idea of 2 pullets...

Hi, I'm a relative newbie to raising backyard chickens as I've only had two at a time. I currently only have one Red Star (and have only ever had red stars) and she needs a buddy or two. My options are to get a pair of Red Stars or Silkie or Speckled Sussex. What would you all advise would be...

Thank you!

Thank you all. I'm just so happy for her to be a girl! Fingers crossed

Thank you!! I'm even more excited now! :-)

Please disregard this post as I can't figure out how to delete it! Sorry!

Oops! Thank you, I didn't think this one was posted. Lol, clearly I'm a newbie! You did indeed answer my last post. Thank you!

Thank you so much! I'm so thankful for all of you and this page!

I was recently given this sweet baby but I don't know anything about her (I hope it's a her) other than she is about a month old. Any idea if what breed, age (is a month about right), and most importantly gender? Thank you!

Hi! I've been referencing this site for the past year and a half when I got my first two hens. You all are a wealth of information and have been so helpful to this lurker! One of my hens died and I now have a new baby to join my older hen. I'm now a newbie all over again figuring out how to...

I was just recently given this sweet baby, but I don't know much about (her). I this kind she's (I hope a she) about a month and a half old. I'm trying to introduce her to my older hen but I'm worried for her safety. For the past week they have been checking each other out through chicken wire.

Hi! I got my first pair of hens last year and learned so much from all the great people on this fantastic website. One of my hens died and now I'm feeling like a total newbie all over again now that I have a sweet new baby. I'm searching high and low for as much information as I can get. So...
