    Do you mow?

    I do, only to keep the "snake hiding" places at bay!

    Statute of Limitations on eggs

    HA! Everyone lays in the same next box. So, she is sitting on a few for ALL of my hens. I hate to throw them out, but that's what I'll do. I already hatched 13 chicks, and DH says NO MORE until I sell this current set!

    Statute of Limitations on eggs

    I went out of town on friday and returned today; my house sitter forgot to collect eggs I came home to a young hen sitting on 31 eggs, but i really don't want her to hatch any. Are these eggs OK to eat? I'm a little weirded out that she's been sitting on them for 5 days.

    We went outside...(Pic)

    Quote: Oh heck no! They were just out for about 30 minutes. They flapped around and then they all laid down and "sunned" themselves. Too funny!

    We went outside...(Pic)

    I couldn't stand it anymore, so we went on a field trip! They had a blast! Our temps have been in the 80s, so I figured it was warm enough.

    Poop, poop, and more poop!

    Fred's Hens : As adults, their poop will be HUGE. Does that help? If you allow them access to your yard, the good news is it will be everywhere; on your walks, porches, decks and lawn? There will hardly be a square foot that doesn't have nice land mine. But at least your shoes and rugs at...

    Moving chicks from brooder to coop

    Quote: Sounds like you have a pretty good set up. By three weeks old they'll have a fair amount of feathers. And yes, as long as the coop isn't drafty, they'll be fine. They will move out of/under the heat lamps as needed. Best of luck!

    Broody Hen - its a MIRACLE!

    I think she's giving up. She's getting up alot more and generally seems very restless. I don't think she's going to set for the rest of the time.

    Broody Hen - its a MIRACLE!

    Quote: That's a great idea! We're about 7 days in, so I don't have any eggs that are on track with that. Does she know exactly how long 21 days is or could i start some eggs in the 'bator now and sneak them under her later? Or should I just buy some day old chicks and sneak them under her?

    Broody Hen - its a MIRACLE!

    Thank you! I just went out and candled/removed a few of the "outliers".....they showed no development. I'm not sure that she's actually fully sitting on any.....but more like sitting in the middle of them all! Oh well. What do you do if a broody doesn't hatch ANY? Do you try to sneak a few...
