    Will they ever start laying again?

    Almost two months ago I got home from school to find the neighbors dogs had some how got into our new coop (that we built specifically to keep the chickens safer). One of the dogs was sitting in there with our two Silver Laced Wyandottes dead by her side. Our five Buffs were up in the hen house...

    Feather Picking or Moulting?

    My little ladies are about 9 mo. now. Since it's been getting dark earlier they are usually in their house at about 5 pm. They're spending probably a total of 14 hours in there. I'm sure I already know the answer to this but I want to get some other opinions. I heard that they usually don't go...

    Egg a day, but no "egg song"

    Thank you all for your replies. Mine are BO's. I guess all breeds are different. I won't worry any more.

    Any Roo's here?

    I'm getting anxious to know if I ended up with any roo's. We got these at the local feed store, and they are supposed to be pullets. But I'm starting to wonder if they all really are. They are about 12 wks. [/img] [/img] Thanks

    Is my BO Maxine or Maxwell?

    My BO's are about that color and size, But they don't even have close to that big of combs. Your's must be Maxwell.

    the number one rule of coop building

    My husband learned that lesson yesterday. He built it in the garage on top of the kids wagon so he would be able to move it eaisly. Well it wouldn't fit through the gate so he had to take the roof off it and then take it through. It was pretty funny to watch him and the neighbor try and get it...

    Howdy from Utah.

    We just got 5 Buff Orpingtons on Monday. The first night was terrible because we had a bad storm and the power was out. So obviously we had a hard time keeping them warm. Last night was pretty good until about 4 this morning. We were awakened by loud chirping. We blew a circut and it just...
