    Chicken Names- whats your chickens name?

    We have only 1 named, so far. He was almost perfectly colored like a chipmunk as a hatchling, so we go to calling him "Chip-Monkey.".

    upgrade from a cardboard brooder

    I love the technology integration. I've been thinking of putting a wireless cam inside our coop and adding it to the hose surveillance system. Would be great to see what the chickens get up to while we're away ;) Your brooder box design looks great - spacious digs for the little guys!!

    Phoenix chicken and peas

    I can't speak to Phoenix birds, but we have easter egger bantams that we've been feeding raw sugar snap peas from the garden. They love them and show not ill effects (we've been eating and loving them, too!)

    Help with homemade PVC watering setup.

    This is an interesting idea. We have a dog water bowl that works on a similar principle. It is a miniature ceramic toilet that uses a 2 liter water bottle inverted in the "tank" that continuously fills the "bowl" with enough water to keep it at a drinkable level for the dogs. What I think is...

    Who in Our Zoo is a Roo? Need help ID'ing bantam Ameraucanas!

    Thanks to everyone for their help. I guess I need to march over to the "Cockerels Wanted" section of BYC - we had another very early morning.

    Who in Our Zoo is a Roo? Need help ID'ing bantam Ameraucanas!

    hdowden, I'm glad to hear you think 7 is a pullet. At least we have two that put the "egg" in easter eggers. I also have a short video of our flock milling around this morning. Maybe the body language will help cement your pullet v. cockerel opinions.

    Who in Our Zoo is a Roo? Need help ID'ing bantam Ameraucanas!

    hdowden and pele, thanks for sharing your insight, though I'm disheartened to hear that you agree with my darkest fears about the sex of my chickens. Also, thanks for ID'ing them as easter eggers, not Ameraucanas - noted. Some more pics that may help...
