    How to introduce sizzles to a standard-sized majority flock?

    Thanks for the reassurance. I didn't know if it'd be fine because the bantams already in my flock were raised alongside the rest, and the newbies I've introduced have all been standard. But what should I do if I do see aggression through the run?

    How to introduce sizzles to a standard-sized majority flock?

    About a week ago, I hatched 3 silkie-frizzle hybrids! They are super adorable, and I can't wait till they can leave the brooder. Somehow I was dumb enough to never consider that these guys might be picked on for their size when they join the flock. I've introduced newbies before, put them in a...

    Review by 'think_fast_chicklenuts' on item 'Sizzle'

    These little floofs are GREAT moms for any chicks you want to hatch, though depending on egg size they may not fit many under. Occasionally you'll need to very gently trim the feathers around their eyes with scissors, but it's all worth it for having a friendship with THIS. LOOK AT THEM. LOOK IT...

    How much should a frizzle cost?

    I've been looking online for hours. Reading that sentence was pure bliss. Can I buy some, and if so, where would I pick them up? I know you're probably way too far away, but I still wanna see if you're close enough.

    Should I ship hatching eggs or pre-hatched chicks?

    When my chickens are old enough, I will put up a sign in front of my house and sell eggs for food. But, I'm considering breeding some of my chickens and setting up an online store to sell to people. The problem is that I don't know whether to ship eggs or chicks. Even with proper packing, the...

    does anyone know why my ducks only trust me in certain conditions, and how to fix it?

    I know, and at this point, I'm pretty sure they're all female.

    does anyone know why my ducks only trust me in certain conditions, and how to fix it?

    I have 4 Pekin ducks. They are 7 weeks and 4 days old and live in a very spacious run with some chickens of the same age. (They get along well and there's enough space so the ducks don't trample the chicks.) I only recently stopped putting the chicks and ducks back in their separate brooders at...

    Words can't describe how angry I am right now.

    Never seen either of those on the property, but I think they exist in my area. I wanna get it out of here, but based on what the other comment said, I don't know how I'm gonna do that. I calmed down a bit and realized that it was just trying to eat, so I'm not gonna kill it. But if I can't...

    I free range them during the day and lock them up at night. But that was definitely the doing of a raccoon, maybe a fox or weasel. The "hidey-hole" Is a big hole in the ground right next to The corpse. It looks about the right size to be a raccoon.

    Words can't describe how angry I am right now.

    This morning I noticed my favorite chicken, Rosy, was missing. I looked all over for her, but couldn't find her. I was getting really worried, and my heart sank when I saw a trail of feathers leading to under the shed. I checked there, and I found half of her. A raccoon probably took the other...
