Hi! This is such a great site with such helpful people :) I will be getting my first chicks this year. The thing is, I have my heart set on Silkies. My local feed store should be getting a few shipments of chicks: one shipment without silkies on 3/8 (where I plan to get some regular RI Reds...

I'm not sure if this has been asked before but I searched the forums and couldn't find anything. I was just thinking that because they have long tails that drag on the ground, would they need any special care? Like bedding, feed, etc...? Wouldn't dirt and feces build up in it? Would I have to...

Hi everyone! We have 13 hens of various breeds at our house and a Silkie rooster. We thought we had a BCM hen but turns out he's a rooster. Would these 2 roosters be ok together or is it best to just sell one?

Hello! My name is Ellie, and welcome to my flock's journey. I live in a small town in upper New England with currently twelve hens. I've owned chickens for over 10 years, and a lot of stuff has happened in that time. Fisher cats to Marek's disease, I've seen it all. I created this thread for...

My chicks are 6 weeks old, 2 cocks and hen (I think). They and mother hen have been in a seperate pen because one of other chickens in the main run almost killed one of them. When should I start to think about trying to integrate them all? I'm excepting soon mum will want to go roost so should I...

My main flock got Coryza after we moved. I'm vegan I won't hurt them, I've been treating them and cleaning their eyes 7 dead already. What will it look like from here? What do I do? I'm devastated, my three smaller flocks are separate and appear okay, I'm not certain my whole main flock is...

Hello! So one of my chickens died from coriza, she came infected from the local fair.. We buried her and my other hen also sneezes a lot but with the antibiotics she has gotten a lot better and is very active, even tho the sneezing isnt gone! The problem is that she is on her own and we need to...
