    Your turkeys are stunning! Would love to get some eggs from you- I just got gifted an incubator (geese b/c that's what I need).

    I'm thinking foxes. Happened during mid morning and dogs typically leave the bodies after they've played/killed. Right? So if anyone has a pair of blrw or any large fowl hens in the upstate, let me know. Jack refuses to come out of the coop and won't crow. Breaks my heart :-(

    Hey Y'all! So after 6 months of "serious researching" on BYC, a chicken coop and 4 pullets showed up in my backyard while my husband, Cleve, was away on a business trip. That'll teach him to leave me behind to swelter in the upstate South Carolina heat while he goes to Seattle! So far, Casey...

    Got soooooo mad at my guinea girl this morning! Stupid thing blasted out of the front of the coop and proceeded to have melt down that she wasn't by her friends but refused to let me catch her. Oh well she's just gonna have schreech at her friends from the other side of the fence today!

    New to raising Chickens with a flock question...

    I have a mixed flock of 15 (JG, EE, D'anvers, Silkie, bantam cochins, frizzles, and guineas) and everyone gets along great. The ones that were raised together tend to stick around each other more which makes me think if yours are all coming same time and same age there really shouldn't be any...
