    No Eggs in 1 1/2 months.

    Hi, I have 2 older RIR and 3 Comets that were new this year and a couple of bantams. All were laying until the weather changed. I am in N. Michigan. I am assuming it is the shorter days as all look healthy.

    Layer Feed

    I am new to chickens this year. I was feeding my hens layer feed and was getting 3-5 eggs a day(including 1 bantam egg) finally. I ran out of layer feed and wasn't able to get more right away and they totally stopped laying in 3 days. On the 4th I was able to get to the feed store and I am now...

    Noisy Hen Problems -Update

    Out of 17 birds - 9 various breeds of chickens and 4 sweet bantams and 4 ducks. I have a female duck that is so loud and so noisy constantly....all the rest are quiet. Depends on the birds.....If there were to be a complaint it would be because of my duck, she just never shut's up.

    Can anyone tell?

    The gold one is fuller, rounder than the rest and have greyish legs. Very sweet birds so far. The white is called banana, he was a yellow chick and my nine year old daughter named them. They are all very tame with her.

    Can anyone tell?

    These chickens are approx.6/7 weeks old and were sold as ISA or RIR. Can anyone tell what they truly are and if they are roos?

    When I got them from the neighbor they looked horrible. They had been kept in totes and I seriously thought something was wrong with them (thats how I found this forum). The ducks were 1/2 the size of mine too. We had bought them from the same place, same day. So 3 lbs is good and yes they were...
