    She is just TOO Spoiled...

    she was hatched in april and it has been going on for her duration in her outdoor coop. She just doesnt want to be a chicken. I dont know how to make her, and I just wish she would feel better with her own kind. I feel like a terrible "mom!"

    I got chicks as a graduation gift. (Awesome right??? ) I raised them at the ag classroom at my school, and they have been LOVED on since they came in the mail. I kept the six friendliest, and sold the others for money to put towards college living, but they are at home and I am at college. My...

    I have a sinking feeling she's not what I ordered...

    I got some chicks from Murray McMurray this spring, al went well and I even got some Bantam Orps that aren't embarassing, but I dont think "Frickin Chicken" is 100% white rock. She DOES lay brown eggs, but I think she might be half leghorn due to her conformation. Not that I plan to get rid of...

    When will they start laying?

    Ok. All their combs are BRIGHT and they have otherwise looked ready for a long time. I got fed up about twenty minutes ago, and went out to put up some nest boxes with fake eggs in it, to "Encourage" them - AND I FOUND AN EGG!!!!! I guess they learn REALLY REALLY quick... It was tiny, cute, and...

    Are my bird babies pet or show?

    I credit most of their small size issue to my generally bad feeding program for the first few weeks of their life. The pic is a few weeks old and they've gotten bigger already I think. I do have to say the Orps are the BEST birds I have. they are legit cuddly.

    Are my bird babies pet or show?

    I know they arent the best quality, but my little cousins want something to show 4h and locally. NOT BIG APA SHOWS! Well, love is blind and I cant give a good critique on them, so I was hoping you guys could. These are my BO's, hatched out March 7 2010.

    Dogs and Chicks how to train them to get along (PICS)

    I mean any dog with respect will not touch your chickens. I own a rabbit, which my dog will not touch. The rabbits in the yard, now those she can have all she wants. My chickens are my chickens, and thats that. Her instinct may be to pick up birds which is more than fine, and is in fact very...

    Dogs and Chicks how to train them to get along (PICS)

    I have a golden retriever. She is 5, and we got them 2 months ago. I made it clear they were MY babies, and that she was to have the same respect for them as everything else that is MINE. (ie food, items, etc) and to treat them like she does little kids. I just didn't tolerate it if she got...
