    A Delicate Situation...

    From what I understand- for the future- you should never help a chick get out of it's shell. I have read that they develop strength by fighting to get out of the shell. And if they do make it out, they are strong enough to live. The humidity/temp may not have been right if the chick was...

    Good worm thread?

    Blue Orpingtons....or Blue Jersey Giants?!

    Hello, Can someone please post a pic of their adult or sub adult blue orpington. I bought some from a local breeder whom also gave me a blue orpington rooster who wasn't 'doing the deed'.
