    What’s the best way to introduce new chickens to your flock?

    I do not know about Bantams I have Wyandottes and Barred Rocks. When my chicks are 4 months old out of the tractor pen and into the yard with the grown birds.

    Miss Blue

    Getting your first egg is great and then hatching out your first batch of eggs and getting the baby chicks is fun too. We hatched miss blue and several others and have had a blast with our birds.

    Golden Laced Wyandottes

    I breed my golden laced hens to a black laced red Wyandotte roo and my golden hens have a darker richer lacing around the golden parts of their feathers. I want to see how it colors out when I breed these chicks back to my golden laced roo.

    I almost shot a possum

    I had a possum get my chickens one night, so I got a live animal trap, and I have caught 7 possums and 12 house cats. They all have a new area code. I would have shot the possums but my 454 casull pistol is a little loud for the neighbors. That possum will be back until you eliminate it, and...
