    My dog ate my chicken

    Thank you so much! This is my first flock and I lived in the city before this (with the dog as well) so all of this is new and I was absolutely destroyed when I found the chicken on the ground. I guess I’ll have to grow some tougher skin since things like this happens a lot with livestock. My...

    I got this chick from my neighbor, it was a fertilized egg that I incubated so I’m not sure where they bought their chick that hatched it from.

    Too cold this winter for chicks :(

    Hello, I live in New Jersey near the coast. The lows right now are in the 40s. So you’re saying I should still be moving them out at 6 weeks? The lows can get to mid 30s at night and it’s only fall.

My neighbor who has hatched chicks told me to check them with a flashlight again so we did just now and saw no movement in any of them. The one...
