    Icelandic Chickens

    Quote: That's so great you shipped Icelandics out to Dilly! I had to do a double take when I read that...I fish out of there in the summer and always love driving past their house and seeing their birds out in the big pen. There's not a lot of livestock out there, shoot there's not a lot out...

    Happy to introduce myself to the BYC!

    Thanks everybody! It's so nice to be a poster instead of a lurker (altho nothing wrong with the latter as there is so much good info here)!

    WE got 3 week old chicks. Now what?

    Sounds like the temperature is just about right, and they will keep feathering out as they age and it's gets cooler. Just watch for any drastic changes (as can happen in fall) and monitor their behavior, i.e., huddling means their cold, panting means their hot. I kid, but it's super hot where...

    Help! Reddish poop!

    Can you post a pic? How does it smell? (I know, totally gross.) I completely freaked out when I discovered the infamous cecal poop, which can have a slightly...terra cotta look to it (and oh, does it stink). I don't have any experience with cocci (thankfully), but from what you're...

    Absolutely gorgeous coops! *green with envy* And I love the chicken crossing sign, that's so cute. Also, agree with the previous poster about the solar lights, nice touch.

    Flea DE Experiment

    That's fascinating about your foxes, suki'smom. I know nothing about domestic foxes...hmm, in fact, I know very little about wild ones either, but I love all animals so it's cool to hear people's experiences with them. Am I allowed to ask what you raise Blatta Lateralis for? Is it for the...

    Flea DE Experiment

    Awesome, can't wait to hear the final results. I love DE, it's amazing stuff and the feed store where I live can barely keep it in stock. A little OT, but I think it's pretty cool you have foxes AND chickens.

    PLEASE HELP URGERNT. black substance covering chicken comb

    Can you post a pic? Her whole head was covered in blood? Is there any way a predator could of scared them and the hens got caught in the chicken wire (happened to my chickens once). From your description, it sounds like perhaps they got into a tousle, either with themselves or something else...

    A little off the subject but....

    Any chance you can board up the windows? So sorry to hear about the weather; wishing you all the best. Ugh, that sounds so lame and ineffectual but it's true.
