    Grey Coloring Breed & Roo confirmation

    I know, I was really hoping to add some blue/green layers to my flock so I’m disappointed. I’ve really loved not having to worry about eggs being fertilized, but since we live in the woods and their larger ‘day’ enclosure is not covered, I’m also kind of hoping maybe he will help protect them...

    Grey Coloring Breed & Roo confirmation

    That’s good to know! We have children, the youngest is 9, and a sort of small dog that gets let out into the enclosure, so I need him to not try to kill us! We technically can’t have roosters here. We live on 2 acres in a culdesac kind of far back from the road and so far don’t have any...

    Tractor supply pricing

    We were just there the other day and our store had bantams. I didn't think to take a photo of the pricing but I believe they were between $6-12? I remember thinking the pricing was fair. Hopefully someone else has better information!

    Hi everyone!

    Our family started with 7 hens last year around this same time, and we are adding to our flock. We were just going to get 3 more to make an even 10... but you know how chicken math goes. We will end up with 16 once our new additions arrive. Technically 2 are bantam so they only equal one...
