    Switching food...

    Yeah I would....the medicine in the food is only to prevent coccidosis and isn't necessary for them if they are laying age. Most people say it's not harmful to eat eggs from chickens on medicated food but I don't. Congratulations on your first eggs though!!!

    Names???

    I once knew a girl named Tanaya....I always loved it. And I grew up with sisters named Rainbow and Echo...but their brother was Raymond....he got a non-hippie name I guess! And I know a few people named Pheonix but only one of them is named that for real...the rest just go by that name.

    I have to introduce my solo hen to the new babies....help!!!

    Last week I lost 4 of my 5 hens to raccoons (I think).....since it's getting cold and a solo chicken is just sad I found some new babies locally yesterday...yay!! They are 3 week old easter eggers and there are 8 of them. How long should I keep them isolated to make sure I'm not introducing any...

    Can you help me figure out who is laying?

    I had 5 laying hens and was only getting one egg a day for weeks...turned out it was the raccoons getting the extra eggs and they left no sign until they started taking my chickens! Now I'm down to one and had to get a new batch of babies once I sealed up the coop better!!!

    flies!!!!!

    I saw a post or webpage before I had a fly problem where someone got larvae in the mail. It was a type of bug (maybe another kind of fly?) that lives off the larvae of big black flies and lives in the poop.

    Whether to put chicks outside now or not

    my first batch of babies was 5 weeks old when I put them outside and it was summer.....and they all huddled up under a low shelf right inside the door to sleep for the first week or so and then they started roosting higher and higher as they grew....so yours might be like mine were....they just...

    I'm in N FL too and have some 3 week old babies....they are ready to go out but they are new so they are quarantined from my laying hen for another week!!! BUT if that wasn't an issue they'd be headed out this week with a lamp!!!!
