    Boy or girl? Cast your votes. Make your bets!

    A bad math joke, I know, but I couldn't help but laugh when I read the post multiplying the x2 by three. :) Although, HE probably deserves six more votes for cockerel... Every day it becomes more evident. Interestingly, all evidence is strictly physical. He exhibits no behavioral characteristics...

    Does that count as six votes?

    I have no idea if this bird is a pullet or a cockerel... Your input would be much appreciated. While your at it, please like the video!

    My Chickens Ate What!?! (Warning: Graphic Photos)

    This is all insightful! I've been browsing the net for info on chicken diets and I've seen enough evidence that I am convinced my rooster would eat me if I turned my back on him. Of particular interest are several videos on YouTube of chickens fighting over mice they caught, hunting rats, and...

    My Chickens Ate What!?! (Warning: Graphic Photos)

    It's 5 degrees Fahrenheit here in Utah. Our flock is doing very well, despite the cold. However, went out to put my babies to bed tonight and found a huge mess of feathers spread all around the run. But not chicken feathers... These were tiny little brown and grey feathers. Then I saw this: A...

    Also, sorry about the late posting, but I got a new swing shift at work that really has me scrambling. I'll post photos and videos of the new babies as soon as I get the chance.

    Day 20! Two Pips! Join me for the play-by-play as the riveting drama unfolds!

    All three chicks are alive and well and thriving! Number three hatched about two hours after her sisters, keeping pace with her pip and zipping in relation to them. This leads me to believe my new incubator has a fairly consistent environment. For now, I will chalk up most of my early losses to...

    Day 20! Two Pips! Join me for the play-by-play as the riveting drama unfolds!

    My avatar is my son's six month old Australorp Cock. He's also daddy to this most recent hatch! We weren't sure who the mom is because we have several different hens that are laying brown eggs, but from the looks of the chicks, they are either Barred Rock-X-Australorp or pure bred Australorps...

    Day 20! Two Pips! Join me for the play-by-play as the riveting drama unfolds!

    We woke up dark and early this morning to LOUD, energetic peeping. TWO of the babies hatched during the night, in what has to be the most perfect chicken births EVER! This is our second hatch and none of our chicks pipped or hatched at the same time last go-round. This time, looks like they are...

    Setting - Our master bedroom, it's 5:30 am, pitch black. Kate: "Good morning... You awake?" James: "No." Kate: "I didn't sleep well last night. We need to put another blanket on the bed tonight." James: "I hope the kids were warm." From the other room: "!!!PEEPEEPEEPEEPEEPEEP...

    Day 20! Two Pips! Join me for the play-by-play as the riveting drama unfolds!

    Of course, the little turds would start getting really active just as it gets to be my bedtime! They're poking their little beaks out and one looks like its starting to zip! Can't believe I will actually try to sleep tonight. I'll probably be up hourly anyway to check on their progress. More...
