    Curious when your RIR layed first egg

    I have 1 pure Rir and 3 half Rir. They all started laying around 4 months (it was a while ago now so I dont remember for sure). I was amazed at how early!

    Chicken throw up?!

    Last night when I picked up my RIR Laci to put her in for the night she threw up. I have never heard about or seen a chicken throw up until last night. Is something wrong? She seems perfectly fine..she is my best layer, lays an egg right around 8am every morning without fail, she is very active...

    How much is too little/to much?

    I obviously dont know for sure since I was the one to ask the first question....:) But my guess would be that they should enjoy foraging enough that thty should do that to even if there is constant food available. My chickens seemed to not be concerned about not having enough food, also, which...

    How much is too little/to much?

    I have been on a mission trying to figure out exactly how much food I should feed my chickens! I have 6, 2 month old's and 6, 3 month old's. I have tried looking on the feed bag or online but haven't found anything trustworthy. Anyway, what I am looking for is how much I should be feeding them...

    Dumor Chick Starter Grower VS Dumor Starter Finisher

    Recently while buying Starter Grower for my twelve chicks I noticed on the bag that you are supposed to feed chicks that are over 10 weeks Starter Finisher. I have six chicks that are under 10 weeks and six that are 12 weeks old. I have been feeding them all Starter Grower so far. At the cash...

    An experiment in chick taming

    Last month i got 6 three day old chicks from my local feed store. Three Buff orpingtons and three White Leghorns. The Buff orps are extremely friendly and love to be handled (including the rooster) the white leghorns on the other hand tolerate being handled but obviously dont enjoy it. Then...

    Introducing younger chicks to older chicks?

    I like the sound of putting them together where they can see each other. Should I wait until they are a little older?

    Introducing younger chicks to older chicks?

    Last month I bought 3 Buff Orpingtons and 3 White Leghorns. Then this month I decided to buy 6 more. I have kept them separated so far, the younger ones are almost a week old. Is there a right and wrong way to introduce them to each other? Im am planning on doing this in about 2 weeks.

    one of my chicks is a runt!

    Last year I bought 4 Black Sex Links. One of them was a runt right from the start. Ate and drank and did everything the other ones did but was always small. Then at about 2 or 3 months sprouted and ended up being a rooster!! He was picked on, pretty bad, by the other ones until he decided that...
