    Bay Area BYCers!

    Hello all! Gosh, it's been a while. Seems I only come on when I have issues and questions. Well, looks like we will be losing one of our two hens to egg yolk peritonitis. I don't know how soon, but I'm already panicking about putting her down ourselves. She's only 1.5 years old but hasn't...

    I agree - that is absurdly expensive...Sigh. I did read about the benefits of soy-free feed in Storey's. Do you have a brand you would recommend?

    Bay Area BYCers!

    Thanks Jeremy. I try to eat organic as much as possible so, while I haven't decided for certain whether I'll persue feeding the hens organic (since they get so many organic kitchen scraps and garden treats), I like to keep my options open. Do you reccomend against it?

    Bay Area BYCers!

    ...you guys being ready to help. We often feel alone in our mini-homesteading adventures...it's nice to feel a sense of community. I will be looking to you all in the near future to purchase a (*female!!!*) pullet or two to flesh out our soon-to-be pair. And now for a very unpleasant...

    Bay Area BYCers!

    Hi B.A. BYC...I have a sad and difficult problem I've been very much M.I.A since I joined and I have a good reason: all is NOT well in Chickenland. My earlier doubts about Eggberta (my "95% surely a hen" sexed Brahma) being an Eggbert turned out to be, beyond a doubt, true. Moreover, he is...

    ...in the back yard with Eggberta, but I think I'll give it another week - folks there seem quick to deem everything big and red a rooster She is *huge*, at no more than 8 or 9 weeks old she's already 2 full pounds. I wouldn't know to be worried about that except that a) she was the...

    ...and Nestlé (H.E.N!) from a local feed store. Henrietta is a PBR, Eggberta is a light brahma and I'm scared that she's a he, and Nestle is *supposedly* and Ameraucana but may be an EE (I hope she's an Am though!). My husband and I moved to the bay area a year and a half ago from Chicago...

    Newbie here

    Howdy from the bay area! It's a wise choice to do research before the chickens come - after they come it's pandemonium!

    Bay Area first-timer!

    Thanks for the warm welcomes everyone! Golly, I have to meet my posting quota so I can post about photos of our Light Brahma who, I fear, is a cockrel. It's been smooth sailing up til now but oh boy, this will be a doozie! As for the home search, we're looking into rehabbing a dilapidated...

    Oh my gosh! You're coop looks SO much like mine (plus a few though). I too have a dark little barred rock (you've got several it looks like), an ameraucana AND a light brahma whose gender I'm worried about and will be posting on in just a few! We are chicken soulmates....golly!
