    Help, one sick chic

    I have a nice verity flock, but recently I noticed that my Lavender Orpington was staying in the coop. At first I thought she was malting but her feathers are all back. She basically sits around, not in the nesting box. She will eat and drink when I put water and food next to her. She will...

    Roo or Hen, that is the question?

    It is the same size as the other chicks and exactly the same size as the other Maran, there is no red on the comb....it is just more developed.

    Curious if I have any Roos

    I am wondering if this one is a roo? We got 6 new chicks to add to our flock. I am a bit concerned that I might have gotten a rooster by mistake.

    Blending the two flicks to one

    At what age can I have my new girls join my older girls? They all free range together but still sleep in separate coops.

    Need a new coop

    I live in New Jersey. I prefer a coop that is off of the ground with a run under it. Our girls have a large fenced in area along with the run under the coop. We also let them free range when our dogs are in the house. We spent a couple hundred on the current coop and are disappointed. No...

    Need a new coop

    Looking for recommendations on a quality coop. I bought one last year and it is already falling apart. I have 8 chickens. The weather ranges from hot and humid, thunderstorms, to snowy and below freezing in winter.
