Hello Everybody~
Gearing up to add a few to our flock. Does anyone know where I can get French Copper Marans and/or Welsummers hatching eggs? I'd also like an EE hatching egg or 2.
The new Tractor Supply opened in New Windsor. Hopefully they'll be getting some chicks although I think if they...

Good Evening Everybody~
I hope all is well. Welcome MeggyC and any other new peeps....too many posts to catch up on. I've been busy doing nothing much.
Where has the Summer gone?
Have a nice weekend !
You're welcome and good luck!
Sometimes Tractor Supply has those swap meets in their parking lots but I would be cautious since you don't know how healthy they are or how clean the chickens' environment was. Also, the Dutchess County Fair is coming up and I believe some of those chickens are...
But of COURSE it started to storm as I was in the middle of cleaning out the coop
I hope the Dingbats had enough sense to head back home. When I opened the run to let them out they scattered and like the good chicken momma I am, when I heard that first (loud) clap of thunder I ran in the...
Hellooo Everybody~
I feel like I haven't been here in like FORever. I've been very busy doing a lot of nothing much. I saw Dave Matthews Band in Hartford on the 11th...my 7th or 8th time..I lost track. I'm a little old to be a groupie but I just can't help myself. I went blueberry picking last...
Yikes...I know zip zero about ducks except for the fact that they're irresistible when they're ducklings. Do they not go in their coop at dusk like chickens??
Hi carousel
That's alotta roosters! I gave Mr. Blue the Roo to Serenity Lane a few weeks ago because I didn't want a rooster anymore (he was the only rooster) and now that the 7 babies (hatched in early June) are getting bigger, it looks like I have 2...a lavender orpington and a splash. Not...

Sorry..didn't mean to scare you! Chickens are a lot of fun and very addicting. We've had them since last March. We started out with 6; added another 6 which turned into 17 and now we have 22. Not sure how it happened, but it does! We were in the same predicament but we modified a goat...
SO exciting Barbi!
If they're rocking & rolling that much, maybe they'll hatch before Saturday. Have you noticed any pips?
We've had chickens hatch on Day #20.

Congratulations~ I love when they peek out from under their momma ! When are the rest due to hatch? Have a great time in Lake George! It's supposed to be a nice weekend. I feel like the weather has been a major source of irritation for months between the winter we had and now we're...
Yes, we were supposed to have a processing party and he asked me to contact you to see if you were doing yours soon but he got anxious. It's a good thing he did them when he did; I haven't see him much lately. He watched quite a few videos on YouTube. Not sure if he saw any by Joe Salatin.
He...
Thanks Erica but I must give my DH all the credit. I didn't (couldn't) help. At the end of the day we had 6 Perdue-ish oven-stuffer sized chickens for the freezer. He said the first one was the hardest but after that one it was pretty easy. He wants to get more to process by October.
