    I will never order chicks through the mail again...UGH!! USPS rant!!!!

    Don't know if this will help you or not...I ordered earlier this year from Chicken Scratch. My babies also went everywhere, all over the midwest, and I, too, expected them after one day. I added up the hours and, after all was said and done, they had gone without food/water for 71 hours when...

    chicken wire & electric wiring

    I made the investment in the hardware cloth AND the Havahart electric fence set up...call me paranoid, but I've never lost a bird. Otherwise, accept you will lose some birds.

    Advice on getting cean eggs

    Never had a dirty or muddy egg. We use what you describe---covered run (corrugated plastic roof) and wood shavings. Can't wait to harvest the compost this spring. Go for it!

    Rooster attacked baby, drew blood!

    I am most impressed with the 14 year old young man you have raised! A man's man in this "chickified" world is a rarity these days. Not often do I see a young man stand up and do the right thing, even when it may hurt himself (it was his rooster, after all). He truly put his little brother...

    HELP ME PLEASE

    RIGHT NOW---Immediately---go pull the new ones out and put them in anything. A cardboard box or anything, really. Then, sit down and invest an hour reading this site, where there are about a million other people who have had this exact same problem. BUT FIRST, go save your birds.
