    Help identify orpingtons and wyandottes, and gender please

    This is my first year with my own flock. I’m wondering why the chicks have banded legs and what you use for bands? Thanks and especially for your patience if this is a screamingly obvious answer!

    Help me identify these babies, please! Are they actually what I ordered?!

    Interesting, I didn’t know about the naked neck. Thank you.

    EE cockerel or pullet?

    I have four pullets. Next year I’m thinking about adding another two or three. Chickens are wonderful little creatures.

    EE cockerel or pullet?

    You’re welcome and ☺️ thank you. Yes, she is a beauty. I think she may also be the boss. She has a big personality!

    Hemp bales vs. packaged bedding

    I’ve recently switched to using hemp (from the package) in my chicken’s coop. I like it for the same reason, being able to sift/rake the poop with ease. I also find that the high absorbency rate it boasts is spot on. It is expensive though…

    Getting rid of roosters follow up!

    Yes, I’m new to this but I think that’s a fair assumption. I had hoped someone(s) might want a small rooster for their flock. I didn’t want roosters, bc I’m unable to keep them where I live. When I add to my flock in the future, I am considering older chicks/pullets.

    Getting rid of roosters follow up!

    Thank you for telling me about that resource! I found the place online. I’m in a more southern part of the state, but used to live up north and had to drive hours to go anywhere. Generally something as close as MA is easily doable. Thank you for reading my post. 😊

    Raising Baby Chicks: What’s Your Go-To Method?

    Hi, I’m curious what you use for feed. You mentioned “stopped using processed feeds.” What are the choices? I’m raising my first chicks now-12 weeks old. They are eating organs grower crumble and lots of pasture. Today I watched them all chase one of the pullets around who found a worm. Thank you.
