    Winter Egg Strike

    My dad told me we can move the axe from next to the door now haha. I'm wondering whether the shaming worked in my favour!

    Winter Egg Strike

    I am embarrassingly excited, she must know that I had to buy a dozen eggs at the supermarket for the first time since all 6 started laying :lau

    Why are we raising chickens?

    My girls are definitely pets. We picked up the bantam cochins from my daughter's kinder hatch. They are like my feathered children :gig We added 3 silkies, one of which is not longer with us, but since having them mid way through December they have graced us with maybe 3 eggs Haha. We are...

    What exactly did you Google (search engine of your choice) to get here?

    I was googling heaps at the time because I told my daughter she could bring some of the chicks they hatched at kindy home :oops: I'm fairly certain it popped up when I googled about brooders and temperatures for week old chicks. Then it went on to trying to work out if they were he's or she's...

    Meet Penguin. Breed?

    Thanks everyone! She is definitely my favourite. My daughter picked all of the other chicks out, but this girl was my choice. Because she was the only standard size with all the bantams (unknown at the time), I thought she was a rooster, as she was bigger in comparison. It was a wonderful...

    Meet Penguin. Breed?

    I was wondering if she may be a cochin. We brought 6 chicks home and 5 ended up being bantams I suspect cochins. This is my first time owning chickens and I have absolutely fallen in love. Thanks for all of your suggestions :)

    Rooster breed?

    Thank you so much! That's the conclusion I was leaning towards, but I also have no idea about breeds of chickens.

    Rooster breed?

    Hiya, I was just wondering if anyone might have an idea what breed my daughters rooster, Frog, might be? We brought home 6 hatchlings from her kindy, and they were mixed breeds, and so far it has been a guessing game. He will be 11 weeks old about mid week and is a bantam. Also, I hope this...

    Newbie

    Hi, just signed up, but I have been on and off of this forum getting answers for my questions since my daughter and I brought some week and half old chicks home from kindy. They are now turning 11 weeks old in a few days. Seeing as I was finding most of my information out from in here, I...
