    HI! Scratch N Peck is the brand name. It's an organic layer feed 18% protein. I also feed scratch, but that is only as a treat not regular food.

    Healthier, stronger breeds that live long?

I read that chickens will live 8-10 years on average. I am looking for new chicks this spring and want to invest...

    How do you keep your chickens cool?

    Shade and misters. There are two good mister that they sell... The string type you can string across the run roof and put it on a timer. The other type is a standing pic tube that you connect to a hose and it mists the area. Amazon should have both. You can also freeze 2 liter bottles and put...

    Severely injured chick, graphic pics, please advise

    This injury looks very bad. The chick must be in so much pain... Euthanasia is the most humane at this point. Easiest thing to do is put the chick in a plastic container with a lid along with a smaller bowl with dry ice and water. Shut it and the dry ice and water will make co2 that will kill...

    Will my chickens try to fly out or roost in the trees??

    Let them run around while they are young so they get used to the area. Feed them where you want them to stay. Most chicken breeds can't fly up to those trees but they can fly over that fence. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Is it too soon to tell if I have roosters?

    You need to get another hen that is the same breed or she will die. They don't survive alone. They also will not want to befriend a larger chicken of a different breed. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Sex My Silkies?

    Too young. The best way with silkies is to compare combs. Since male and female bodies look similar, and sexing through leg size is useless, you can check by comparing the actual body size... But the comb will give it away first. Luckily you have more than one to compare. As far as time...

    14 week Olds breeding, does this mean I'll get eggs soon?

    She is very young. She probably won't start laying for 6-8 months. My orpington didn't start laying until 9 months old. She is also too young to be near a rooster that is mounting her. I would separate her from the rooster. He can really hurt her because she is still a baby. Her comb is also not...

    Iced-out chicken! What to do??

    Thanks! I'm thinking getting another orpington would give her a friend even though she's at the bottom of the order.... Have you heard of chickens sticking to their own breeds?
