    Animal Control came to the door-some help please

    Before I got my chickens a few years ago I found a link here to look up your town laws. I did and it stated that I can have three chickens. Earlier this year someone saw the chicks in the yard and flagged down a police officer. I told him what I found out, he looked it up and could not find it...

    where to find chicken feed in the chicago land area?

    There is the Feed Store on Harlem ave right off of I-55 exit Harlem and go about two blocks south, if you hit Archer you went to far. They have everything and are super helpful. That's the only one I know of in the area, where did you end up getting feed?

    watery poop question

    Thanks, I think it is a total stress thing. We moved their box to the bathroom and now every time some gets to close one or all will get watery poop. Check back 5-10 mins later and it is normal again.

    watery poop question

    I have three silkies, 2 weeks old tomorrow. For the most part their poop is solid mush, normal. Everytime I clean the cage they hang out on the floor or the kids hold them, or when we pick them up and pet them, two especially will get watery poop, not a solid bit in there. The one doesn't do it...

    Who's setting eggs today (St. Pattys Day) ?? ??

    We had three out of 5 hatch!! The first one came out super fast 30 mins from first pip to all the way out! The other two took about 8-9 hours but we got to see them all. They are so cute!

    Thanks Bell and Annarie! That makes me feel better. I was thinking I read 12-24 hours to sit out and come to room temp somewhere before.

    Who's setting eggs today (St. Pattys Day) ?? ??

    I haven't opened the bator once! I did get a turner. I have 5 kids and the chances of me remembering to turn silent eggs are pretty slim, if they made some noise maybe but around here you have to make alot noise to get noticed;) Or I would have little helpers and we'd have splat or two;) A...
