    Day 22 under a broody..how long should I wait?

    Well...my goodness...I don't know your financial situation, but if you can survive without that 80.00, I'm sure you could make it up later selling eggs from all the ladies you hatch! You could probably sell some chicks too! Sometimes, the joy that something brings our hearts is worth...

    Day 22 under a broody..how long should I wait?

    Thank you so much Mama Dixie. I have been hand feeding and watering both girls the entire time...they are the sweetest sisters. I have taken them both out for just a few moments each day. They do their thing (literally, maybe five minutes) and then run back to the nest. I stopped taking them...

    Day 22 under a broody..how long should I wait?

    I had 8 eggs under a broody hen (actually two broody hens who are both dedicated setters). One egg began to pip and to hatch, but ended up crushed beneath one of the hens (this was day 20). Today is day 22, and I see no pips, absolutely nothing in the other 7 eggs. How long should I wait...

    Things I've learned in my first eight weeks of keeping chickens in beautiful South Orange County, California, where the only things that resemble and act like animals, are the housewives... 1. The children in the neighborhood will never again lovingly call you, "Crazy DOG Lady". 2. When...

    The adventures of Barbara (BR)

    I am so envious of you Mrs. Chickendad! I live in an area that requires a homeowner's association, therefore, NO chickens allowed. I have two lovely 17 week old Orpingtons and no complaints thus far from the neighbors, but they are sweet little girls and whisper quietly to each other most of...

    The adventures of Barbara (BR)

    I have been thinking of our Chickendad friends all day...and thinking about the lovely lives their little ones were allowed to lead, thanks to the love they had for each little feathered friend, diva, scooter rider, or just plain chicken. There are no words to make the Chickendads feel better...

    Urgent! considering taking in a pair of chicks, advice!

    Hello....I just finished "brooding" some (3) chicks in a makeshift "brooder". There was an article on the internet about how to make a brooder by taping two regular size packing boxes together (it's super easy). I then made a "stand" out of PVC and hung a clamp light on it (I actually took off...

    Is this big enough for three hens?

    A little scary how easily I can acquire a husband off this forum Actually, I think all the coop makin', chicken lovin', nice guys are either taken by some lucky gal who's smart enough to know what she's got and takes care to hold on, or they live somewhere in the mid-west. Remember...

    Is this big enough for three hens?

    Dear Thinkingchickens...I have not checked the Los Angeles CL for either a husband OR coop builder, but that is a fantastic suggestion! (For the builder, not the husband). I'll take a peek and see if I can find your guy. Thanks EVERYONE again!
