    Success in Breeding Ornamental Chickens

    I was wondering what success breeders have had breeding and selling ornamental chickens. I have some very nice cochins, d'uccles, sultans, and polish that I would like to breed next spring and sell. What are some other breeders ideas for marketing the birds to the right buyers? This year, we had...

    My Chickens Keep Dying...Please Help and Ideas

    Unpredictable Mille Fleur D'uccle Roo

    My Mille Fleur D'Uccle is very pretty, but he can be pretty nasty sometimes. I have these pink muck boots that I wear in the barn, and he has attacked me three times when I wear them. Nothing too agressive, just tries to spur me I think. Everytime he does it so quickly I don't get a chance to...

    My Chickens Keep Dying...Please Help and Ideas

    I have lost three chickens over the last few months. First was Little Jerry, who I think had an impacted crop or something. The next chicken to die was Shelby. She was a rescue chicken and was probably more than five years old, so I think it was just her time to go. Yesterday morning, my...

    This morning I received my mixed bantam assortment and three easter eggers from My Pet Chicken! I could not be more pleased with their health! They are all very bright and healthy. As soon as I put them in the brooder, they were running and jumping around, eating and drinking. They are very...

    I need advice about ordering?????

    I ordered some polish chicks from My Pet Chicken last week. The website stated that they would not be available until September or later, I just got an email this morning stating that they would all be here next week. I would just call the hatchery and talk to them first, then just consider...

    Info on "free range"

    I would not worry about them flying over the fance at all, I have over a dozen free range birds and that has never been a problem. Like mentioned before, they like to stay within range of the coop so if something happens they can make a run back to it. I would keep the food in the coop if you...
