    Mixed flock

    Ok I know I sound cheap, would it hurt to mix the layer I have left with equal parts grower/starter until it's all gone?

    Mixed flock

    Question. I have three hens that have been laying for about 8 months, and 8, 8 week old chicks. Will it kill the chicks if they eat the layer feed? I have put them in the same pen but not sure how to keep them from eating each others food. I figured the layers need the layena, but the chicks...

    Egg laying

    Ok so I started letting my chickens free range during the day. I finally found my first egg yesterday in the coop, but not in the nesting box. Do I need to keep them in the coop til they lay or can I keep letting them out ANC they will come back to lay? First time with chickens, and I just...

    Training my chicks

    Ok my chicks are 4 weeks old and I finally finished the coop and run. How do I teach them to sleep in the house instead of the run. I have to physically put them back in the chicken coop for them to sleep there. Do I need to confine them up the coop a few days before I let them on the fun or...

    The Natural Chicken Keeping thread - OTs welcome!

    I sure do appreciate it, I've got a nice fire pit out outside that needs cleaned out, and we keep apple cider vinegar "sassy juice" around the house but I don't know it it has the mother in it or not. Just wanting to make sure we don't chemical up our chickens, that's why we are raising our own...
