    Oh my gosh!!!! I'm just gaga about birds especially chickens,even more specific bantam chickens and I'm afraid to be more specific than that Here is sadly my long lost Sebright mix rooster Owen, he was a real ladies man,but he was odd too. He did his little courtship dance to all the other...

    Snot in the egg, no cockerel?

    Hi there, also had the same fear when I raised my first flock of hens...thought that one of them was actually a rooster!!! Until I found out contrary to popular opinion, these tiny red spots do not indicate a fertilized egg. Rather, they are caused by the rupture of a blood vessel on the yolk...

    What breeds are "hot" for 2010?

    I've never really owned them, but i have to say Delawares are becoming "hot" this seasonas well as plymouth rocks. I wish I could own some. But as for color, I think lavender, crele, barred and gold or silver lacing are the "in thing" right now. OMW!!!!! I love chickens u guys

    Things I have learned since getting chickens...

    I learned after I got chickens that 3 are not enough. They lay enough eggs for the whole family but they dont stop the chickie cravings disease. I also learned that silkies are working with cochins in trying to take over the world, I fell for them anyway

    I want some STANDARDS!!!

    Quote: Haha You just read my mind. Sadly, I cant since I leave in a suburb thats strict when it comes to chickens. But so far, i like what I'm hearing especially on BO, Faverolls and RIR. For how many years do these breeds lay eggs and when does production decline?
