    Egg bound

    I've had some people say that they believe that hatchery birds or more are more prone to this. I'm not sure that this is the reason I don't have the experience I have only been doing this for year and one of my birds was a hatchery bird and the other was a non-hatchery bird. I did have a...

    Will she ever lay?

    Everyone here should get together and write a book of funny things with chickens. My oldest boy comes in after seeing that the girl has final laid her first egg after a long time. He was excited, wife and I were to. We all go back to doing what we were, then my youngest(5) comes in the room...

    I just make sure that they have access to shade. Other than that fresh water in shallow containers( maybe a .5 in deep) for them to get a little wet. This is not their drinking water. My big black Orp will jump in lay in the water to get her fluffy feathers wet then she jumps out shakes like a...

    Don't know if there is anyone down this way SWFLA, that is interested. Saw an ad for 40 new chicks free on Craigslist. I have nothing to do with this but it is odd to get anyone having chicks in Cape Coral. I am worried that someone many just dump them. It's a Craigslist ad for Fort Myers FLa.

    Ideal Poultry v.s. Meyer Hatchery

    If you are just looking for birds for eggs or looks that you are not showing I get local when I can. In my area there are a couple of people that can hatch what you ask or fund them. For me a hatchery order is mostly for one stop shopping and young people that can not really deal with adults. I...

    Will she ever lay?

    She does manage to get her self in so trouble. As you can see she loves the blow dryer. She has gotten in the sprinklers a few times and she is so full if I et her dry I can take a hole day. It is warm down here but 50s and a wet hen bothers me. I tell her to come dry off and she runs up to the...

    Will she ever lay?

    It's more that she is going through the motions. She will go in and sit come back out and act normal. She if you move her she doesn't protest like the broody buffs. I changed to Ca on the side because I had 2 broody buffs and her not laying. I didn't change back to the layer feed because the...
