    Our first chicks

    I thought the same thing! Our first set we got a few weeks old but this last set of three we got came at 2 days old and we had lost one of them (had 4 to begin with) and after losing one I was afraid to step away for more than a few minutes at a time. It gets easier as they get bigger though. :)

    How long do ducks live?

    question on mixing in this years chicks with last years hens.

    We picked up a grown chicken and tried to bring her into our flock and I was amazed at how the flock treated her. They literally turned their back on her, every single one of them. (picture below) but what we did was we kept the new chicken in our dog crate, she was used to free ranging so we...
