I just got an antique sock making machine. I've been busy in my craft room organizing and cleaning the parts. I can see 2 "teeth" that are chipped. I'm hoping once this is all set up it is still operable. Keeping everything crossed!

Many different types. EE, cochins, a few polish, Wyandottes, silver spangled Sussex, a few sex links, silkies, Hamburg, more. I started out with a surprise box with many varieties, and then picked up more during fall tsc chick days.

I don't think so, they were from tsc and cackle hatchery. Im near Milwaukee.

They don't have hearts, so you're all good! Lol

Dude is entitled to his opinion. But the mansplaining... :P

Some of mine are wyandotte S

Hi guys, I've been quiet since school started and then stopped getting notifications. I've missed all the daily doing updates! Yesterday was a sad day here. I was careless and left 1 of my dogs where she had access to the birds. She was always watchful but never chased, so I thought it'd be ok...

Want!

Oops, also wanted to post the video.

I did 3 of mine today. I still have more to do but the water wasn't hot enough to do more. I'm glad to know I CAN do it, but after this batch I think I'll try to find a butcher to do it.

I'm doing mine for the first time today as well. Roos are 14 weeks, but i need to do it before crowing happens. I'll be using the broom method. I wish luck to us both!

I really wish I had read this thread first. I didn't realize my layers would pick on the Cornish x. They killed half of my meat birds today, 8/16. They have a week to go until processing, I've got them separated now. I feel so bad for them. They were meant for early death, but not to die in...

I haven't gotten an egg for 5-6 days now. Come on ladies, get with it! I'm a bit worried they're laying somewhere else.

Do you know if it's possible that a pullet laid two eggs in one day as her 1st and 2nd egg? I'm almost positive I only have 1 layer so far, Amber. After finding 2, there was 1 day with none, and then 1 a day since then. They are all the exact same shade as well. I'm new to chickens, but had...

$15 on the quail!

I had 2 lay their first today! I'm beyond excited as these are my first chickens. I knew my amberlink was close, but i thought my white leghorn was also close. But I think the isa brown was the second because both eggs were brown. Unless Amber laid late last night and again today?? The leghorn...

I've got 3 that are really close, but no eggs yet. The goose kinda nipped at one who then squatted for him. I had to go get him off her. He was so confused why she didn't just get out of his territory! It's like she got stuck in the squat.

Looks like my Salmon Favorelle but too soon to say.

What made you decide to give up chickens?

So true. I have 2 border Collies. I always thought the girl, Alice, was too skinny and Rory was just right. The vet corrected me and we reduced Rory's caloric intake until he was where he needed to be. Alice was spot on and the vet told me this perception is really common.
