    Crafters- What are you making???

    I am doing the exact same thing! My mother used to make them and sell them, and I have just started to make them too. Let me know how yours are going, so far I have the pattern, fabric and yarn for the hair. I just need to get motivated now to cut them out and put together!

    Can I put my chicks out during the day?

    We have been keeping out chicks outside since they were about four weeks old. At first we brought them in at night and then we moved them to the tractor that our other chickens had been living in. Now they stay outside all the time and it has been great for them. They are now six weeks old...

    I am also sorry to hear about your loss. I never thought I could grow so attached to chickens, and I dread the day that something happens to one of my girls, but I also know that it is inevitable.

    Hello from East Central Indiana!

    Welcome! I am a newbie myself and I also never thought I would want to be near the chickens. After we got them I have absolutely loved them. They are completely wonderful and entertaining.

    I am new to BYC. My husband has wanted chickens for a long time, but I was hesitant. About six months ago I gave in and was hooked instantly. We now have 4 Blacksexlinks, 4 Goldsexlinks, and 6 Redsexlinks. I think we are pretty well rounded for now, but soon want to add some goats! Looking...
