    Georgia is a nice place. It would be even better if it would warm up some more.

    Baby is Lethargic and Refuses to Eat or Drink. Please HELP!

    Thank you both. I am afraid that the chick did not make it. Even though it managed to get warm, I guess something was wrong with it that I couldn't fix. It is just really upsetting.

    I have a chick that is lethargic and will not eat or drink. She is a Buff Brahma that is approximately 3 days old. She was fine earlier and then the light in the brooder went out without my knowledge while I was tending the older birds in my flock. This has been going on about three hours. I am...

    Thanks so much. I have found a lot of useful information that I have either already applied or that I am planning on applying. I hope that I can get a nice size flock going and that I can maybe help someone else!

    Friendly Chicks?

    When I had my previous flock, before we hand an unfortunate incident with hawks and my neighbor, they all came running for me and acted basically like dogs. I'm hoping that I can get these to become like that. Worms are probably a great idea so I will be going to get them!

    Friendly Chicks?

    Ok I will definitely try this, because I would really hate for anything to happen to them. I am getting some of my favorite breeds I've wanted since I was a kid and apparently no one around here has them. I'm hoping to have good luck with them. From what I have read on here the breeds I am...

    Friendly Chicks?

    In light of my impending arrival of my chicks, I was wanting to know if anyone had any tips on getting the chicks used to me. I would like it if my chicks, now and when they get older, didn't flee in terror every time they seen me. It would also be a huge help because I want to free range but I...

    Hi guys! I think I have met a few of you. I just want to take the time and get to know the community of Backyard Chickens. It would be great if I could talk to some people in my area, but I love talking to new people!

    New Babies Coming!

    Ok so change of plan, the buff Polish weren't available so I ended up getting the Cochins and 4 Golden Polish and 4 Salmon Faverolles. I am so excited to get them. They are three of my favorite breeds!

    New Babies Coming!

    They are so pretty! I wish I could find some buff Brahmas. I used to have one and it was one of my favorites. I've never owned either of the above breeds so it should be an interesting experience.
