    Hen pasting up?

    I have a hen. She has lived her just over a week. I don't know much about her other than she is missing quite a few feathers. She is moving in with our 2 chicks soon. She didn't lay an egg the first day she was here. She laid an egg the next day. The day after that she laid a HUGE egg with a...

    Chicken water nipples reviews?

    Anybody use anything from avianaquamiser? They say theirs don't leak but I'm new to all this chicken stuff. They sell vertical nipples.

    Drive west. Not sure how far you're willing to go but there is less suburban west of you. We are way up North but I have family near Lansing and in Detroit. Go get yourself a Vernor's. Welcome to MI!

    They are gorgeous! I wish I needed a rooster...and could have one...but I can't. City says no and hubby says he'll eat it if I bring one home once we're out in the hills. Maybe someday!

Sadly, they never found that chicken. I'm thinking enclosed all around latched up tight and moveable...
