OK. We used to have an australorp, and I am not sure if it was the breeder, but she was always sick and hiding and didn't seem to do well with the heat. Where could I get some?

Hi there! I just discovered this thread and have some questions. We have a flock of four, and will be getting rid of 2 that have shown aggression and are still not laying after 35 weeks. We are looking to buy 6-8 more chicks and build an upgraded coop that can accommodate them. What breeds...

:lau I know all chickens make noise. We live in an HOA so we need some breeds that are a little quieter. My leghorn mix is always throwing fits over who knows what, and screams all day, and my Easter Egger likes to join in when they are protesting.:lol:

Hi, I am not sure if this is in the right forum, but I have a few questions on reestablishing flocks. We have had some issues with our current flock of four which originally started out at 8. We are getting rid of 2 hens that are not laying and rude, and want to add 6-8 more chickens and build...

Hello. Has she been eating or drinking anything, and what do her poops look like? Could you attach some photos?

I knew it looked too good to be true.......

Yeah that is possible.

How old are your hens?

I know this is an old post, but I wanted to know if anyone knows the dosage for collodial silver? My chicken has been sick for almost a week and I think she would benefit form some silver.

So, today my leghorn almost went broody. She hopped into the nest like she always does, but as I reached under her to check for eggs, she hissed at me. Then, about an hour later, she off again, singing an egg song, but no egg!:confused:
