    Chicken math is real

    Thank you so much! I have lots of nesting boxes and they all want the same one😂. But I have lots. I kinda ran into trouble last summer bc you see, there is nothing cuter or more fun than letting your broody hatch her own babies from your own flock and I kinda got obsessed🤦‍♀️ And now- I have...

    Breeding silkie over regular hen

    Probably a silly question but I’m just really not sure… The only roosters I have are silkies. 2 actually. And then I have 18 regular hens. The boys are getting the job done bc the eggs are fertilized. :) Is it ok to have my broody hen hatch the eggs? Will the babies be healthy? Thank you😊

    Cornish cross dilemma :(

    Yes. TSC should absolutely inform customers of what type of a chicken a Cornish Cross is. My father has raised chickens for years and never heard of such. Neither did my friends at work who have chickens. It’s so sad. And wrong. My local feed store only orders them for those who specifically...
