    Checking-In On Peeps - Post Here To Say Hello!

    So much has happened it’s difficult to keep track. We free range our chickens here in Florida. We have a large property so they are very free. They have very secure coops and are all locked down at night. Having said that we lost 3 RIRs to a ground predator that took down 2 horse fences to...

    crossing R.I. reds and buff cochin

    I have the same scenario only mine hatched naturally under my Buff Orpington. I know yours happened long ago. There were several eggs under her - RIR, Barred Rock and a Buff Orpington. I believe the hatch from 5 days ago is a RIR and Buff Cochin (Sampson my Roo is Cochin) and it’s cute as a...

    My entry: Sampson Featherfoot April 2023; mystery chick from hatchery. I just love him! Possibly a Buff Cochin per my inquiries on here. I have edited this entry as I had All 4 photos in this post and they only want one per post. Also, I didn’t need to resize (I don’t think.)

    Please ID Mystery Chick from Murray McMurray

    This is Sampson my mystery chick from Murray McMurray. He was born March 8th. I believe he’s a cockerel. He’s feathered on the outer legs and outer toes. He’s getting tall but can still fit through the 2x4” fencing quite easily. I have RIRs his age that are bigger then him in the body. I...

    Chick Breathing With Mouth Open

    I will pray for you and the baby chick. I’ve tried to save so many at this point and none survive in the end. It’s heartbreaking but if it continues to suffer like that it may be best to cull it. I have only culled one that was sick, the rest died in my arms. My husband had to do it - I...

    Chick hatched this morning and disappeared. I’m devastated.

    So sorry for your loss. I lost a young Barred Rock named Misty to a hawk attack last year. He took her head off and left the body in a split second in front of my husband! I didn’t think I’d recover from that either but I got more birds, lost a few more (not from a hawk) but I kept going...
