    Howdy!

    Howdy! I’ve been a member if this forum for a long time but havently really been active. We had chickens, then moved, had to rehome them, bought some land, started building a house and now we have 13 chicks! I jumped the gun a bit and ordered some online from Ideal Poultry. They are officially a...

    I live in Hutto and have the same problem. My chickens are not housed at our house. That was the only way around the HOA problem for us since I have neighbors that would report us and a weenie dog that would stalk them. I have two red sex links and a black australorp hen. The red hens are...

    Thank you! I'm not sure when I can make it down there but I'll look at my schedule and see what I can do. Thanks again for the offer.

    Ideal Poultry is close to where I'm at and that's where most of the chicks around here come from.

    I was going to suggest raccoon. They like to stick their little hands in coops.

    Anyone near Austin have Silkie, Frizzle or Sizzle hens/pullets for sale or trade? I have a white leghorn hen that I'd like to find a new home for and would be willing to trade her for a different (and more tame) hen or pullet. She's pretty wild but lays a perfect egg every day. Hatched in...

    Post your FIRST EGG pics!

    Our first hen started laying two weeks ago. Looks like we have 2 or 3 out of the 4 hens laying now. Here are the first 3 eggs from two weeks ago. After two weeks of laying! Weird bullet egg... And two of my happy hens!

    I don't think I can pay a pet sitter to look after 4 chickens housed on school property. I wouldn't feel comfortable allowing someone I don't know have access to them since they are not on private property. Thanks anyway for the suggestion. I think the best option would be to bring them home...

    I have a friend who can swing by once or twice to check on them but they may not get out there everyday and I also don't know how well they would collect the eggs. Right now the chickens are at my school so it's kind of hard to get a good chicken babysitter that would come out everyday. I check...

    Question about gathering eggs... I'm going out of town July 4-7th. I have an automatic waterer set up for the chickens and a feeder that's big enough. Would the eggs be good if I collected them when I return? My gut is telling me no because of the heat.

    Ahh you must have used the ones with the bigger squares. I know the 4x4 ones are pretty pricey. We used those for our dog run. With the $20 ones, it would definitely be affordable.
