    Pale comb tail down lethargic

    Thanks for the reply. I did as you said and checked for an egg and did not feel one. She is still no different than before. Pale comb and face will walk some if you encourage her but basically will just stand in one place and close her eyes. She is still moving her neck around like she is...

    Heat bothering your chickens?

    Should work good then. Anything to keep them chickens cool is a help! About the only thing I can do is keep a fan going on mine. The humidity is so high here.

    Heat bothering your chickens?

    I think they work by evaporating cooling so should work ok if its low humidity. If its really humid like here in nc it will just work like a regular fan.

    Weird Chicken Sound

    Yep adult voice! I thought there was something wrong with mine when her voice changed and sounded like she was honking sort of like a goose. We told her she needed to lay off the cigarettes they weren't good for her complexion! Lol

    Your Ideal Flock....of only 4 birds!

    Calico princess are new this year and not much info on the web about them. We have two and have no complaints at all. They seem like they can take hot weather well , started laying at 15 weeks are friendly and non flighty. Just in case you happen to run across them trying to decide on your flock.
