    Comment by 'mawmaw11' in article 'Do Poultry Mourn Over The Loss Of A Flock Mate?'

    I lost one of my 9 yr old flock today 😢 down to 3 now. I swore this would be my last but I’m going to get some pullets when it warms up. Would you think that would be trouble for sure?

    My little Angel died today

    She got overheated about 3 weeks ago. I kept her in the house for a couple of days and she seemed ok. I've been trying to gove them an extra tub of water and frozen melon and fruit everyday, but today I found he dead in the nesting box. Any other ideas to cool them off?

    Is it still too cold??

    I just put my 4 week old EE and Buff Orp's in the coop this afternoon...checked on them about 5 times already! They are standing next to the screen door looking for me so I'm feeling guilty...plan on keeping them in the coop for about a week with a few hours in the run every day. I'm not too...

    I also bought my first chicks recently. They were sold as Americauna, but now I know they aren't....they are so sweet and friendly and good with the other chicks and so far I am perfectly happy with the breed...my sister and I are brooding together buff orps, barred rock and the EE and they are...
