I guess I never even paid attention to the synchronization of the chickens, I just tried to get them both in the picture....lol. Thanks for all the great comments. I appreciate all you replies.

Are these production reds friendly when they get older? Or does it just depend on the chicken? Sorry for all the questions. I have no experience with them.
Tina
Thanks for the responses. I guess the silkies are not pure otherwise they should have black skin. That is a bummer that they are probably all males. So the chicks with my Buffs might be production reds? What are production reds? Thanks again,

Hello everyone,
Please let me tell you how my chick season went before I ask my questions, so please bear with me. I already had 4 big beautiful Buff Orpington hens. So I decided to expand on my flock. I bought eight chicks from a local auction. Needless to say they all ended up boys, so I...
What happened? I would be so upset if someone took my chickens. But as you know even though this is a "Chicken" site everyone here also writes about everyday life. I am sorry to hear about you loosing your chickens. Good luck to you,
Tina
Congrats on your hatch. I just had 5 of 6 hatch last night. I know it is so exciting. I was in luck though because my son had his High School Graduation last night. Before his graduation we had 6 pips. When we came home I had 5 babies. Good luck,

I have 4 BO hens. They are 3 years old now. One of them also crows. She just started crowing a few months ago. I don't know why she is doing this. But she is the dominant hen. I think she is trying to play the male role...

I now have 2 beautiful chicks. And 2 eggs that don't move. I want to take the chicks out, they are dry and the other eggs haven't pipped yet. Can I do that?
Tina
I had 4 eggs in the incubator. 2 of them hatched, 1 last night and 1 this morning. The other two eggs haven't pipped or moved at all yet. Today is the 21st day. Can I take the two chicks out, they are dry, or should I wait? Thanks in advance,
Tina
Ohhh...I wanted blue/black orp but I couldn't find any so I settled for Buff Orp. It is raining here otherwise I would probably go take a walk also. Maybe I will go out to the barn and play with my other chickens. At least that would keep me away from the eggs for a minute or two
