    Songs that make your skin crawl.

    I don't like most pop I especially hate anything by Justin bieber, didn't like him when I was 12 and I don't like him now September by earth wind and fire hurts my brain Opera leaves me in actual physical pain (not hyperbole) Shape of you makes me want to shove a dictionary in front of ed...

    Lets see your Labubus

    Why the crud are these popular? I swear I've seen cuter things on the cover of goosebumps books..... Someone could make a 5 nights at labubu and they wouldn't need to be made creepier at all Makes me glad I avoid social media (other than here, yt and twitch)

    Bullies - what should I do?

    I would separate the head hen for a week or 2 to reset her position in the pecking order. I'd also add some clutter so the chicks can get out of her line of sight. If that doesn't work you can also try pinless peepers on her. If you end up having to rehome anyone I'd rehome the head hen since...

    Is this an Ameraucana or Easter Egger egg?

    If you didn't pay a lot of money (dunno what started ameraucana pullets go for but chicks are 20 bucks a piece) you probably have an easter egger At the very least they're very pretty easter eggers, true ameraucanas are tricky to find

    Fine bedding? Nono for new chicks?

    Don't blame you, I would have stocked up too, and it will be very useful later on so you still did good :D

    Fine bedding? Nono for new chicks?

    Main issue with fine bedding is they're more likely to eat it when they're figuring out what food is. I would get a single bag of flake pine bedding for now (and give them a bit of chick grit just in case they eat a bit anyways) and save the fine for when they're older

    Is she barren?

    Has it been very hot lately? Extreme heat can impact laying (mine have certainly been laying less), how old is she? It could also be the stress of moving and changes in flock dynamics. Not much you can do in any case but wait it out

    Six week old “Americanas” (EEs). Any surprise cockerels?

    All appear to be pullets for now

    Do you add stuff into your commercially available food?

    Letting them forage is great, table scraps are fine in limited amounts, mixing homemade with commercial would likely be more effort and expense than it's worth and not provide much if any benefit (and possibly be detrimental), I would simply find the best quality food nutritionally and provide...

    When do you start adding to your flock- contingency plan

    Sounds like a great plan to me, only thing I would be mindful of is the space in your coop and run

    Do you add stuff into your commercially available food?

    Their question was about mixing in a homemade feed that they found the recipe for online with commercial feed, not about whether they should let their chickens forage or not (which most people here would agree is an overall good thing), the benefits of letting them forage or providing them...

    Help! What do I feed my mixed flock??!

    The gamefowl feed with oyster shell on the side is fine, you can also feed everyone chick starter or all flock as long as they have crushed oyster shell on the side, whatever is your preference

    When do you start adding to your flock- contingency plan

    Most hens do start slowing down at around 2, some stop entirely by this point (although this isn't typical). Even if you don't plan on culling your old birds, adding a few young pullets every 2-3 years or so will make sure that you still have birds laying even if some have slowed down or stopped...

    When do hens most often go broody?

    Our whole summer is a heatwave so you're spot on about that. Basil went broody a few weeks ago and of course I had to go out there to make sure she still had food and water. of course she did and it was indeed untouched as she was too busy trying to mother infertile eggs and ceramic eggs to...

    Ear Lobes = Egg Color?

    On an semi-related note, I loved unwrapped when I was a kid! Very cool to see how different foods are made

    Ear Lobes = Egg Color?

    It's a coincidence, many brown laying breeds happen to have red lobes while many white layers happen to have white lobes, ear color though has no bearing on egg color it's just a myth with some basis in truth

    Things you wish you could say

    Indeed, he was my first dog too and he was a great first dog, very easy to housebreak and despite being a pittie didn't really chew much of what he wasn't supposed to, he was a bit shy but a few outings to Lowes, tractor supply and the local Mexican restaurant fixed that
