Hi,
I am very very new to this chicken stuff! We bought 6 chicks from tsc and I have found now to not take anyones word from the place and to come as infomred as possible! I will next time take pictures and go home research and go back to make my selection! So far I have learned that I have...
Okay...so I did the big no no and I have indeed learned my lesson. Now I need help to help the chickens that I did the big no no to. Okay so here is a short cap of what is going on.
I bought 3 new hens (around 12 weeks old) that have been vaccinated and has their beaks clipped (which I...

Are three golden comets..indeed golden...
I appreciate everyone's feedback and I will definitely get back to you all on the growing and color of eggs. Does anyone happen to know when I should expect an egg??????

I got all the chickens from tractor supply.....oh and I forgot to add they are all 9 wks and 2 days old....that is me going off of when I purchased them. When I first got them, we were told they were all longhorns and from a straight run. I bought from 2 different barrels. The first 3 ended...
Okay so I am sure I have 3 Pullets....I am now just curious on what I have. Early in their lives a lot people said, tetra tints, Easter Egger and a Delaware Just want to see if everyone still agrees.
