    I've moved food and water into where their boxes are, so she has easy access to both, but I think she prefers to come out and drink from the dogs water bowls instead!! lol

    I've got a quick question regarding babies and mummy chickens.. Bit worried cos we've got a 35 degree day today and a girl on eggs.. She's been on them for a week yesterday, should I be worried about the heat? Their pen can get warm, we do have a small sprinkler setup to help keep it a little...

    We've got 9 light sussex eggs under our light sussex at the moment. We did buy a dozen, but I have given 3 to a workmate who has put them under her langshan bantam :D We didn't expect our LS to go clucky so soon... If at all... But I guess hormones got the better of her! The only problem...

    Can Welsummer X still be sexed at birth??

    Yeah it's all good. Both of ours are boys. Sigh! And they've even started fighting at 4-5 weeks! They will be going back to the chicken lady tomorrow unfortunately!

    Cats!!!

    I don't think it's bad to get two different cats from different sources. As long as you introduce them right, you should have no problems at all!

    Cats!!!

    Do you really think cats are ever interested in us?? lol I must admit, I think I am pretty lucky to have 6 absolutely loving cats.. Haha. They may not always all get along with each other, but they all love us humans <3 I think if you got two cats, you may end up with one who is all lovey...

    Can any of these breeds be sexed at 'day old'?

    This is my little one now... Going off feather colours, I'd say she is definitely pullet ???

    Bit sad, but 4/7 of these babies were roos! All of the wyandottes and the australorp! Our Barred Rock is definitely a girl, going by her colouring, and the cochin and and new hampshire/frizzle are looking like girlies too. Will have to update with some photos :)

    Gosh so many posts to catch up on. I'm too lazy to read everything! :( We picked up some more day olds today. 5 more. Two welsummer (one cross frizzle), two australorp frizzle crosses and a cochin. I think both our welsummers are little girls (was trying to google while picking them up but...
