    Lice or mites ID - photo

    Hello - my orphington, Peach, has some little white clusters around her face that I am assuming is a parasite egg infestation - lice or mites? I have searched around her body and her skin looks in good condition to me and I haven't found any other clusters of eggs anywhere else. The photos...

    desparate chicken owner - Integrating three 4 month olds into an established flock

    I have had so much trouble with my 9 month old hens (Mara, Leghorn and Barred Rock) being constantly aggressive towards the new 4 month old new girls (Orphington, RIR, EE). I am worried that it will just never happen for me and that I'll have to give some of these girls away. For the last 3...

    Post your abnormal egg pictures!

    Here's a photo of my sweet girl, Bunny. She's 6 months old, still not laying. She's just a beautiful golden color and is the sweetest little girl in the flock!

    How do you display your fresh eggs?

    I'm a first time chicken keeper and my girls should start laying eggs any day now... in anticipation I'm thinking about how I'm going to diplays these beautiful eggs they'll soon be laying. I've seen the egg skelter (below), which is kind of cool. But how do other people show off their eggs?
