Ugh now they have all decided to start pecking at the walls of the cardboard box! Sometimes they get quiet and lay down and then I move and they start it all up again!!

I have 5 chicks. I can't make them sleep!! They are in my room and I can't make them stop chirping and cheeping! It's driving me insane!! Please give me advise on how to make them sleep!

Keep the Amber, Bantams, and the Easter Eggers. They are great!

Well I named the WPRs hokey and pokey... I can't tell them apart. I named one of the EEs triscuit and another one victoria ( my little sister picked that name ) I don't know what to name the other EE and the BSLs. I love funny names... That don't make sense

I have 10 chicks... hens. I need names. I have 5 black sex links, 3 easter eggers, and 2 white plymouth rocks. They are all a week old and have no names! these are the EEs and the WPRs. I don't have pics of the sex links.

Okay so this is my pic... I'll post more once i get the hang of it. The three brown once are Easter Eggers and the two yellow/white ones are White Plymouth Rocks.

I want to post pics of my new chicks. But I can't figure out how to! Please help!!!

I just got 5 new chicks. They are 6 days old. Is it okay for me to feed them meal worms or other treats? And I have heard about grit. What is it? Thanks for your feedback.

I know what the comb is on a chicken, I just don't know what it does. And do the different types do anything. I've heard of the pea comb, single comb, v-shaped, cushion, and others. Is there a signifacant difference? Does the difference matter? Thanks for the feed back!
