    Medium Rat Proof Chicken Feeder with Soft Close by The Carpenter Store

    What's the average weight of you chickens? I'm not in need of the feeder, but more information might help you with selling it, good luck.

    Calico Princess Vs. Cinnamon Queen?

    I have what was supposed to be a Cinnamon Queen (one version of a Red Sexlink) that I got from TSC (supplied by Hoover's Hatchery as far as I know) and she looks nothing like that picture. Depending on where you get them they can look very different...

    Suggestions needed for hanging feeder and waterer for young chicks

    That first one looks like it'll do the trick! I can snip the mesh a bit if necessary to fit the nozzle through. Thanks!

    Suggestions needed for hanging feeder and waterer for young chicks

    I've seen the nipple drinkers for chickens, but I'm not sure how they'd attach to the screen of the brooder. The one's I've seen are on the sides of large buckets . . .?

    Suggestions needed for hanging feeder and waterer for young chicks

    I recently got this new two level brooder so I start raising chicks outside (https://www.walmart.com/ip/MEDEHOO-Rabbit-Hutch-Outdoor-Indoor-Bunny-Cage-2-with-Large-Pull-Out-Trays-2-Story-Guinea-Pig-Cage-on-Wheels-Move-Freely/16208420251?sid=5a561ae1-d201-4520-9458-618e9e58e2c3) . Overall it...

    FEW TOO MANY ROOSTERS! 😳😂

    I tend to keep mine until they start causing trouble. After I culled one aggressive cockerel the next one became aggressive. The second male never caused any problems until he was 'in charge'. You never know how removing one bird will affect the hierarchy until after the fact. Sell/rehome the...

    Why have they stopped laying?

    I also just realized you said some went broody and haven't laid since then. If the weather turned after they finished raising their chicks that could also explain why they didn't start laying after being broody.

    Why have they stopped laying?

    I have 20 pullets and only 4 are laying. The 4 that are laying hatched in February/March and started laying at 4-5 months old in the middle of summer and continued to lay all winter. The rest hatched in June/July and turned 4-5 months old as the temp changed and the days got shorter in Oct/Nov...

    Confirming opinions on pullets

    I'm guessing pullets, but breeds with the black combs and wattles (Silkies, Ayam Cemani, etc.) can be tricky to sex, so wait for others to chime in.

    BYC's 17th Annual New Year's Day Hatch-Along—2026

    I noticed that the only chickens that are laying are the 4 I hatched February and early March; and they laid all winter. The ones I bought/hatched in June/July still haven't laid. My guess is the weather turned chilly and the days got shorter just as they were old enough to lay.
