    mystery bird thrown in my order

    It has been a couple of months since I got my chicks, anyone want to guess what the all white chicken is? I ordered silver, brown laced and Columbian wyandottes. This one was thrown in I have no idea what it is but hope it is a female as I really like it

    4 and a half week chicks are in the coop

    I don't think it is a sebright, It could be a Columbian or silver laced Wyandotte, unless the hatchery sent it by mistake

    Roaming Dogs coming in and killing yesterday

    That happened to me a few years back, killed every one, never found the owners, after that I beefed up my fencing so it wouldn't happen again. I am sorry it happened to you

    4 and a half week chicks are in the coop

    The chicks refuse to leave the coop, even though it is 80 degrees, they are walking around the coop but too afraid to leave it yet.

    4 and a half week chicks are in the coop

    I put the chicks in the coop this am, I have the coop at 80 degrees, thanks to a heat lamp. I will open the door to the covered and enclosed run this afternoon once they get used to the coop. Tonight I will keep the lamp on and turn the milk house heater to low to make sure it stays at least...

    4 1/2 weeks, old Are they Ready?

    3 of them are Columbian wyandottes which are supposed to like cool temps, the other 2 types are wyandottes, silver and black laced, They threw in 2 extras one is all yellow, probably a gold comet and the other one looks like a wyandotte

    4 1/2 weeks, old Are they Ready?

    I have a milk house heater in there and could also bring the heat lamp that I used when they were chicks. I was planning on keeping them inside with the door to the covered run open, then at night putting them in the coop and turning on the heater

    The girls are getting big and growing crowded in their brooder, They are 4 1/2 weeks old, Do you think they are big enough to go out in their outdoor coop. Low temps will be in mid 40's Highs will be in the 60's and 70's for the next 10 days.

    Heat in the winter?

    I do the same thing, that way I can open the coop in the winter and they still can go outside for as long as they wish

    Heat in the winter?

    I live in Wisconsin, It can get down to - 30 in the winter. The coop is draft free. I use a milk house heater on a shelf in my coop, It turns on automatically, I have it on a shelf, fastened with metal grate around it so it can't be knocked off. I have used it for about 4 winters. I know lots...

    3 weeks old

    The Ladies are 3 weeks old today, to celebrate they got wood chips instead of paper towel. I am hoping to put them in the outdoor coop and covered run during memorial day weekend. I think they are feathering out nicely
