Thank you ! i've been away for a bit and my dad didn't notice anything until now !

I done some research and i think one of my chickens has pin feathers? The feathers around neck are gone but the quill thingys are still in there. I've seen no bleeding or anything so i was just wondering what it is and to cure it ? thanks,

Hey, Do ducks need big ponds?, what kind of housing do they need?, do they lay eggs like hens? and are they as friendly as chickens? (:

How long are they broody for?

Hey, i was wondering, what they do?, when?, why?, where? and do you need a male ?

Hey everyone, I don't have any silkies but was just wondering how they are with rain?

I don't really want to get more chickens just for their shells haha I just wonna know how I can I give them calcium other than milk & cheese

Maybe just get a smaller amount to start out will as your new to this! I'm not really the person to ask but ah well Good luck !

Yeah I do, i feed them layer pellets (:

right, so do you think it's more calcium they need?

Hey everyone, thanks for all the posts it's really helped, I've come to the decision that I'm going to get 2 silkies and 2 barred Plymouth rock bantams, so what do people thing about that, 2 friendly egg layers and 2 very friendly non-egg layers? Haha

No sorry I just meant oyster shell and its always out there for them to have but they only take it from my hand, I've also noticed that they don't drink that much water, could that be the reason? have any other suggestions ?

I was just wondering if anyone here knew how to make my hens eggs stronger? We give the oyster shell grit and layers pellets that supposedly gives strong eggs shells but nothing workS, we also give them mash, corn and dried mealworms, would that have anything todo with it?

Do buff Orpington's come in bantams?

Thanks for the post's guys its really helped ! Has anyone ever had a plymouth rock ? I hear they're friendly egg laying machines? Haha
