    Ancona Chicken Thread

    I just ordered 2 Ancona and I have neighbors but I am in the country. I hear they are chatter boxes. I guess I will see. I love their look and I wanted some white egg layers. I hope I don't regret that after seeing this thread.

    Elevated dust bath

    I live in the city limits and we are not allowed to let them run loose. I do let them out in my fenced garden area with supervision at least once a day for a hour or two. I know its not idea but that is why there play area is so large. I only have 5 chickens.
