    Best place to buy a new flock of chicks?

    Thank you everyone for the replies. I won't be ready to order and have chicks delivered until spring time. GREAT point about avoiding the holidays though, I hadn't even thought of that. I'm in Oklahoma and we have a few small NPIP hatcheries but the variety of chickens isn't very wide. Cackle is...

    Best place to buy a new flock of chicks?

    Does anyone have recommendations for the best online outlet for starting a new flock? I've had chickens in the past and am back in a place where I can start over. I've researched my breeds and want a variety this time around for different colored eggs. Any past experiences with the big...

    Will my chickens lay again after Coryza?

    All symptoms have cleared up and I have decided to try the biosecurity approach rather than culling my flock at this point. However, I have chickens for their eggs, and if they aren't going to lay daily like they did before it may make my decision of culling a lot easier. Any advice helps...

    Breed experts out there?

    I bought these girls as "BLRW". I feel like there are some Wyandotte traits in there but also feel like I have some sort of cross. These girls are about 3 1/2 months old. This pullet almost has a double laced appearance like a barnvelder. She also has a green hue shinny appearance when...

    Pictures of my 22-24 week old roo. And 13 week old pullets. I have a question for any of you that are knowledgeable about breeding, I'd like to try and breed these but am looking for insight first about what I could expect? I feel like I have a decent rooster, deep mahogany, fairly decent...

    Ameracaunas not laying yet... 22 weeks?

    I've got two blue ameracauna hens that I raised from chicks. We should be around the 22 week age as they were hatched in early October. Should I expect eggs from these girls anytime soon?

    12-ish week old White Leghorn gender help.

    Well that's unfortunate. I did hear the guy mention he ends up with many cross bred chickens. Any possibility of it being a different breed than a white Orpington or leghorn cross?

    12-ish week old White Leghorn gender help.

    Nice.... looks like I'm going to be done doing business with this guy for good. If it turns out I get a pullet, will it lay tan eggs like the other orpingtons?

    12-ish week old White Leghorn gender help.

    I was offered this Leghorn, along with an Orpington pullet, from a guy that had previously sold me two BLRW chicks that turned out to be roo's. I picked this one out of two others because the comb and wattles were less pronounced and more of a yellow/pink compared to the obvious red of the...
