    Will baby chicks stay with mama?

    I put some bird netting around the bottom of the run to keep my chicks in with the mom. Even though they stuck with her one got out and couldn’t figure out how to get back in.

    Salmon Favorelle Roo or Pullet?

    I had a pretty subpar one from Murray McMurray too but she just had a little soot in her beard. Her main problem was her messed up eye but I don’t think that had to do with the hatchery. I think she was injured as a chick and it never healed quite right.

    Has everyone seen Chicken People - the documentary on Netflix?

    Yeah it made me feel like maybe my chicken obsession isn’t as out of control as I thought it was

    Irresponsible cat neighbors?

    I used to adopt feral cats from a program that specifically trapped, fixed, and relocated cat colonies. Those cats could not be kept inside and had to be adopted in pairs. I am not at all an indoor cat person so this program was great for me. Now I just feed the stray cats someone drops off at...

    2 day old Brahma chick.

    I had a chick that looked similar. I rinsed with saline and applied terramycin ointment twice a day i think. I will try to find the thread.

    Shiny Feathers

    Interesting…I don’t usually keep roosters but my last accident was a Lavender Orp and there was nothing shiny about him. But that’s obviously because lavender. I will have to keep an eye cause if it is a thing it would be one more useful tool in the “is it a cockerel” tool kit

    SELLING HENS

    I sold my whole flock to move as well. Some were older. I just sold them at a flat rate, stated that they would only be sold as a flock and that the price was firm. The way people are panicking about egg prices you shouldn’t have a problem selling laying hens even if they’re slow/older

    HELPPP CHICKEN IS BLEEDING

    Pecking isn’t limited to “aggressive” chickens. Any chicken will find a bleeding flock mate easy to peck at. It’s instinct. So definitely separate any injured bird regardless of what caused the injury
