    Trying to pick out the right chicken breeds

    I used to have buff orpingtons which were lovely, friendly, cold hardy too.This time my chicks are Columbian Rock which I am told are docile and grow to a good size. They were all I could get as day olds this year.

    neighbour chickens

    Next door is a flock of 3- i.e., 2 hens and a rooster, who occasionally come under the hedge up to the fence. I have 6 chicks, which I hope are all hens, but if I have a rooster, will he have to fight our neighbour some day? We have fencing but not too high to fly over. Are chickens territorial...

    Hello, I will soon be picking up some new chicks.

    So far the organic mixtures are unavailable in my local TSC; maybe the hatchery can sell me some when I pick them up? Some starter? couple mouthfuls?

    Hello, I will soon be picking up some new chicks.

    I want to make a recipe for homemade chick starter for them. Is it safer to buy pre-made from the store ? How finely ground is the starter mix you buy?
