    Chick integration with older hens/roo

    So far so good but I didn't get down there last night and I'm afraid to go down this morning..... The ameracaunas won't come out of the coop and the broody mama does go after them when she sees them in the doorway :( I'm going down in a few minutes and hopefully all is peaceful!

    Flock Master- the mama hatched out 5 Easter eggers and 4 silkies. She accidentally squished 2 of the silkies so I moved them into the cage with the Americaunas that were bator hatched a week before by a friend.

    Eggless broody girl??

    Hello...I have a 7 month old silkie that has gone broody for the first time! I don't think she has any eggs under her....is this possible? Will a chicken go broody without any eggs under her?

    Help with colour & sex please!!

    Wow a splash! That's kinda cool!! What's not cool is that he might be a roo :( I already have 2 and really don't want any more! I had to give my other 2 Roos away because they fought, and these 2 are never apart so if 1 goes they both go I guess. Of course I will wait till he feathers out...
