    NY chicken lover!!!!

    I am considering shipping. My patience for new chicks is running thin. They are so addicting, but the weather needs to cooperate as well. Next week my run should be nothing but mud. If the weatherman is correct. I need to settle down on new chicks for now. Thanks Beer Can.

    NY chicken lover!!!!

    My only concern is the shipping. I like checking my chicks out personally. I have read many horror stories concerning shipped chicks, but if I can not find what I'm looking for then I may bite the bullet....

    NY chicken lover!!!!

    Nothing says love like 3 roosters in your tub These boys would not go into their coop because the ramp had snow on it. I scooped them up and brought them inside. As soon a they were dry they started crowing. What a ruckus. It was funny...at first. Then I started getting the stink eye from...

    Silkie thread!

    Nothing says love like 3 wet roosters in your tub! They were pretty miserable. Didn't know what to expect from them. Thank God they get along pretty well. They all hung out in the corner, then after awhile they started crowing. What a ruckus. They are dry and happy to be back in their...

    Silkie thread!

    there isn't any water in the tub. I just wanted to dry them out. Our first snowfall and if I dont keep the ramp shoveled they won't use it. Of course I didn't think about it until I got home and they were soaked. So, we brought them inside. They are drying out nicely and happily crowing in...

    Silkie thread!

    I need to slow down and smell the roses. My third hatch happened on Sunday. I didn't really pay attention. Sad to say. When I thought my final hen was just stating to brood, she surprised me by hatching 4 babies in what seemed like a week to me...she just didn't seem like she was sitting on...

    Molting question

    Mrs Orphington appears to be molting. She is 1 1/2 years old and the only one of my Flock that is losing her feathers. It seems bad to me. She doesn't have a loss of appetite and is drinking her water regularly. Is this normal? Should I move her to separate quarters to keep her quiet? I...

    Deep litter method

    Hi everyone. I finally got my litter to where I needed it to be and then Mr Skunk managed to get himself trapped inside the coop. (someone forgot to shut the pop door) it was a chore in itself trying to get him out. Anyway, before he was disposed,he consumed 3 of my silkie chicks and he...
