    only one egg?

    RIR that's right. They are eating the right feed with occasional fruit/veg treats as we have them. How do I check for worms or egg bound? Still haven't found any eggs since last week. And I'm not sure what molting looks like but there are a few feathers lying around.

    only one egg?

    They aren't free range. They are abt 6 months. We got the chicks at Easter. I fogot the type so I've added a photo.

    Killing, Plucking, Eviscerating, & Cutting Up Your Chicken - Graphic!

    Is that skin holding the legs down and together? Mine are frozen with the legs sticking up...not exactly space saving!

    time to go outside?

    We got these guys on Easter and they're outgrowing their space. Is it too soon to put them in the coop with the rooster? It's hot out during the day...60s at night.

    Bigger water plate...changed the platform. ..thats all I could find for now. Any suggestions for a bigger brooder? This tub won't last long.

    First time with babies

    Temporary set up...I can see this is too small but better than the box. I need a bigger shelf for the water too...

    Thank you. Yes we'll be putting them in a bigger box. This is just for yesterday and today while at my moms house. When we get home accommodations will be much nicer!

    First time with babies

    We just picked them up today. They should all be hens but we'll see. Now we must fix our coop. Round 1 with adults didn't go quite as planned.
