    Quote: In everything you read they say chickens are allright if they are dry and out of the wind (shelter wise) so them being all wet with the cold just made me wonder. I can just picture your silkies - they must look like wet pom-poms! Got any pics?

    Need advice. I got some 6 week old chickens yesterday. Today it is raining. It is 45 degrees. My new chickens are not going in the coop where it is warm and dry, they are hiding under the mower and picnic table. Should I put them in the coop and shut them up for the day where they are dry -...

    What breed/sex is this?? TSC mixup!

    Thank you for all of your comments on my mystery chicken! But I must admit I am disappointed that TSC would completely lie to it's customers. Does not seem fair. I know that I did not pay much for them, but still I thought I was getting the australorps! I wish there were more places to buy...

    What features does the australorp have that the one on the right is missing? I was hoping at least one was an australorp! (That is what they said they were at the store.) I am totally new to chickens and love to learn - I really enjoy the BYC site!

    Ramp Challenged!

    Thanks for all your posts! At least I know there is nothing wrong with them. The only reason I was concerned is because over the past week I took them out and let them run in our fenced yard all day long - they loved it!! But now they are not coming out to play. One or two came down the ramp...

    Ramp Challenged!

    Hello all Last night was my chicks first night in their new coop. I have 8 chicks that are 4 weeks old. And I opened the door this morning over an hour ago and they will not come out. Should I take them out or just let them sit there all day?? Thanks!! Michelle in Crossville Tennessee
