    Heat & humidity

    Have some 2 wk. old chicks and was going to put them out in a pen for the day. However it is very high humidity and temps for next couple of days. We have heat warning with the index to be 105 for the next day or 2. Do you think I should or not?

    Waterers and what works best in the winter

    Countdown To Eggs! For June hatches 😊

    We got 18 plus 1chicks on Oct 3rd. so got a little time to wait. My question is when a chicken starts to lay how long will it take her to be producing the normal size egg for their breed? So far it is looking like we may have a couple of roosters plus the extra one that I think is a Golden...
