    Hi, I am new to raising chickens

    Full agreement on the multiplying. I started with one and picked up a second so she could have a friend. Then I had to get another when the first when broody. Suddenly I have four chicks added bringing my total to 7, after that I learned I am not allowed to go to chicken sales with one of my...

    LGBTQ+ Poultry Keepers

    I'm currently waiting on a couple of my youngling to crow or not. It's a toss-up to whether my half silkie is male, but I am highly suspect one of my easter eggers is.

    Whatcha Making for Supper?

    Yum, spaghetti sounds delicious, except for the Italian Sausage. A bit too spicy for me.

    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    So far just one from three that are out. The silkie may have laid, but I'll check her after dark. Might have someone lay one more before the day ends.

    Roosting Bars-Round vs Square

    It might be larger, it originally came with the coop and I didn't really measure it. But good to know moving forward

    Roosting Bars-Round vs Square

    Hi everyone, I just wanted some opinions on the shape of recommended roosting bars. Most of the common ones are 1 x 1 inch bars, but I have read (somewhere) that the edges can cause issues with the feet due to the edges. I have rigged two out of four of the ones supplied with the coop with...

    Photo Critique Club

    I think it looks great. A little color, maybe some ribbons or vines to the handle, and its ready for Easter.

    Thank you. They are usually locked in the smaller coops and runs during the evening now, and I am currently predator proofing the large run I use if I will be gone until after dark.

    Only one hatched chick, help!

    You could also try candling them, to see if they are even viable. I ended up doing that with plans to introduce chicks if there were no takers, but a single egg had a chick in it.

    This This was my original flock before they were attacked by a predator. I still have 3 this flock (probably the same as in my profile pic.) Above is the Silky and her hatchling. Below are the sets of twins that will be replacing the ones I lost

    Decaf is the way I trick my body into thinking it can stay awake just long enough to make it through my shift and getting home to bed.

    Feathers Feathers Feathers!!!!

    I tried to collect them once. I set them aside and promptly forgot about them. Tossed them back in the yard after a few weeks.:p

    My experience joining 6 week olds with 3 year olds.

    The smaller space is my issue right now, since I am attempting to predator proof their regular large run. The run attached to the coop is too small to give the littles an area to escape to. I free range mine during the day and house them in a small coop off the side overnight. They don't seem to...
