    Are You Chicken Obsessed?? Are You Sure??

    I spent a year reading on here before I even got chickens. Does that count as obsessed;)

    Did I ruin my birds??

    I would have to agree with the rest. I am really new to this, but even my Roo eats laying crumbles. He is still very manly. I don't think it matters all that much as long as they are fed.

    8 from 7

    Ok I checked. Three of the CW have red earlobes and the other 2 are pearly. Does that mean the ones with red are not CW? It doesn't really matter to me what color egg they lay, I would just like to know what they are, and if I should be expecting to get more brown eggs.

    Introducing puppy to flock

    I have 12 hens and 1 roo and we are getting a new puppy. I want to get them both used to each other, so hopefully the dog will protect them from other dogs in the neighborhood. The chickens are housed in a pen in our barn and let out to a free ranging pen in the day. I was thinking about...

    My 2 year old is a nudist...

    I have never tried the duct tape, but I've been tempted. I finally resorted to safety pinning my little one's pajama zipper on the inside. Then she became a contortionist and figured out how to get them off without unzipping. They are a joy!
