    EE laid a double!

    Results of the first double. Had to help it hatch. It was strong. I let it try for about 24 hours before it looked like it needed a little bit of help, I saved one of the two the other one didn't develop. It's in the incubator now. Not sure if it will survive but fingers crossed!

    What to put on the floor of a brooder!!!!

    Hemp is my favorite too. I've tried all different things in the brooder and everything is just so hard to clean but the hemp absorbs better and keeps their feet cleaner, if that's possible lol, and they seem to love digging through it. It it's smaller than pine shaving so it doesn't get stuck on...

    EE laid a double!

    She laid another one! What's going on! The first is still looking okay in the incubator. I think they're both alive so far but the green egg makes it hard to see.

    I produced this chick!

    Hi, I have mostly silkie frizzle satins and silkie smooths in my flock and this one just appeared out of one of the eggs. I have no idea where it came from as far as its mom and dad. It is about 10 weeks old I've heard that sometimes genes will skip a generation. I do have one Easter egger...

    Separating my Roos...

    That sounds fabulous - a bachelor pad. Thank you! IN general all 3 are sweet as far as Roos go, Silkies tend to be that way anyway, so yes based on the checklist above and your idea, I'll try the bachelor pad, that way all the hens can flock together too and it definitely minimizes the work for...

    Separating my Roos...

    Hi, I have a question about my 3 Roos. I'm done breeding for the season and would like to give my hens a break. Some of my hens have bald shoulders and balding backs and I've had to buy saddles for a few. Each Roo has it's own flock, they are small flocks of four or five hens. I plan on keeping...

    Fabulous feathered silkies! Don't buy from her!

    I know I posted this thread a while ago. Since then I've had several phone calls of others who have bought from her and have gotten sick chicks as well. It's just the saddest situation. Please if there is anybody else out there please please turn her in. She has to stop doing what she's doing...

    This is such a great post! Thanks so much for asking! Thanks so much for asking the question! I have a mom sitting with seven babies. They are all about 4 weeks old and she's getting the itch to go back to the flock. My question would be once she's ready to go back to the flock, how do you...
