    And most big box/home improvement stores will cut your wood for you. So with some basic tools, even just a hammer and nails, you could DIY!!

    The EE braggers thread!!!

    I guess I meant more like my Barred Rocks are going to look like Barred Rocks, as my New Hampshire Reds will look like New Hampshire Reds. I realize that they will all have some differences as they are not clones.

    The EE braggers thread!!!

    Newbie question here! I have my first dozen chicks in the brooder now, about 10 days old. I'm in love. My hubby and his mom picked them out when I was at work. They said 4 they picked out were Americaunas, but did not pay attention/remember how it was spelled at the feed store. I would assume...

    Hatchery with smallest min order?

    I think I read in the warmer months (April and later) some hatcheries do a 3 chick minimum.

    We will be building or coop for our Dirty Dozen this weekend. A $$ saving tip: I ordered my hardware wire from Amazon. I got 48"x50' 1/2 19g for $79/free shipping w/Prime. The local Home Depot wanted $53 for 36"x25'. Good luck with yours!!

    Telling chicks apart?

    My hubby and MIL picked them from up from a feed store. They didn't ask where they got them from. I was just wondering if, at a certain point, you would be able to tell by some characteristics. I have not tried anything to mark them. While observing them the past week, I notice that they...

    Telling chicks apart?

    I have a dozen new loves in my house. These are our first (I'm already understanding chicken math and can't wait to see what the feed store will have in the spirng!!!) I have a couple of questions: I have 4 each New Hampshire Reds, Barred Rocks and Ameraucana. The Ameraucana, I can tell apart...

    What do you wish you knew before your first chicks arrived?

    OK, my first post (I've had my chicks since Thursday). I got 12, wish I had MORE. They are just TOO cute. I did think I was going to lose one yesterday, she was very lethargic and NO pep to her at all. Today all are fine. Friend that has 30+ years chicken experience said the first 5-6 days...
