I live in Georgia and it only gets down into the 20’s, but I give my girls a heat lamp that is about 4 feet from their straw and 2 feet from their roost... the love it. They scootch closer to that side together and go in extra early on cold days. I have a silky in the mix and she definitely...

I absolutely loooove my buff-laced polish hen. She is funny, loves people, unique, quirky and just an all-around perfect chicken. She only lays a couple eggs/week but she is always the first bird to come hang out with me. The other is a bantam Cochin and Silkie.... lovely sweet little birds. I...

Oh my gosh I love it!!! I have a little Cochin that looks almost exactly like yours and she is also one who wants to sit on my legs if they are stretched out. She isn’t as snuggly as the Polish but is definitely special! The Polish chick is just so funny! Always wants to nap in my arms.😂

Hi! :frow Glad you’re here! Lots of great answers to questions here. I have bantams too, they’re so cute and fun! Welcome to BYC!

I had a barred rock hen that bullied everyone and even killed two bantams that were older than her. She was awful! So I don’t get barred rocks anymore. As for Cochins, the bantam Cochins are wonderful! Mine give themselves lots of dust baths (I provide sand with Diotamaceous Earth and they love...

So very sorry for the trauma of all of that, DONT be too hard on yourself, these things happen. My dog killed my favorite hen out of the blue, she had always been good with the chickens. I felt terrible too!!! If you want to add to your little flock, do it! I had two separate little flocks 3...
