    My Pet Chicken Ghoulish Giveaway!

    I entered for a chick pack, which I have been debating on purchasing since the blog post went up! My top choice would be the Intense Egg Color pack since we have mostly brown layers right now. Although the Jackpot is also calling my name as I'm dying to get some Fun & Funky chicks. I look at...

    "She" is 7 weeks old and has quite a big red comb for a little lady! I also noticed she is getting dark green feathers on her back end. We've been lucky so far with 21 correctly sexed pullets, but I think we may not have been so lucky with this batch of chicks.

    Kentucky people

    Hello fellow Kentuckians! I'm pretty new here. Did a LOT of research in the forums when I first started this adventure in the spring, but haven't gotten around to joining in until now. We started our flock in May with 13 day-old-chicks and 6 more from TSC which was a complete disaster (we lost...
