    How do I tame my baby chicks?

    Imagine if you could put a leash on your chicken and took it out for a walk, wouldn’t that be amazing, they don’t do much expect maybe lay eggs, fertilize the eggs, egg bugs and food, shit on your backyard, and do some good work for your plants, the only taming you would be doing is your time...

    They aren’t dogs and aren’t going to do any fancy tricks but I wish they could’ve would’ve been nice to seem them roll over or do back flips lol, the best thing you can honestly do as a owner is communicate with them daily they will grow to love you as their owner, try hand feeding them so that...

    Easter Eggers

    Just imagine this, if a chicken could live up too 8 years or longer or shorter depending on that owner and depending on how well it’s been taken care off, let’s say 5 year’s, that’s a whole lot of years to lay eggs don’t you think? which starts at 7 months, so don’t rush at all, just be patient...

    Easter Eggers

    Beautiful EE!!

    How many chickens am I allowed to keep?

    I believe in every state your allowed to have 3 hens and no rooster because it gets noisy for the neighbors unless you have a farm then the law might be different, that’s the law also in Canada, Toronto
