    Early Hatching?

    If an egg is accidently cracked a few days early than its supposed to hatch, can a chick survive? And also can they hatch on their own early?

    Coop/Run Bedding? What is the best choice to use?

    I have five little bantams and today I cleaned my chicken coop for the first time in a long time. The floor is just regular dirt so it was all packed down and when I raked the poo, the dirt came out in chunks. I have been wondering about putting sand in the bottom or maybe packaged topsoil from...

    Blue or Black Silkie?

    Ants!

    I hate ants! They have made a huge colony in the dirt under my coop. They eat all the food my chickens spill, so they are living the high life right now.

    Won't eat laying pellets?

    I switched my chicken from scratch to laying pellets and she won't eat them. I guess if she gets hungry enough, she'll eat it because she hasn't starved to death yet. Anyone having this problem? Any advice? Will she eventually get use to it?
