Hello all, it has been a long time since I've been on the boards. I went to check on my chickens the other day and found over half of the flock dead The neighbors dogs had gotten into my big pen and killed 37 of my chickens, many of which were just hatched in November.. Luckily I had hatched...
Hello all I am looking for a white leghorn rooster and wondering if anyone know of a feed store that sells the laying boxes that the eggs roll out of the chickens reach? I have some egg eaters and I am getting very tired of seeing my eggs eaten. Thanks. I would prefer north valley/west side...
Hello all it has been a long time since I've been on here, just wondering if anyone has found a place to get chicken food that isn't an arm and leg? I am paying $14+ for a 50 lb bag right now and getting kinda tired of it. Has anyone found it any cheaper??? Thanks
Mahorni or anyone else could you please let me know which of my roosters would be the ones to keep? I want to keep one or two and I am trying to sell them on Craigslist(I know not the best place, but I need the space and don't have the time to butcher them) I will probable end up taking them...
anyone needing a rooster? I have way to many... 18 out of 27 that hatched are roosters. I bought them as FBCM and BCM, they are susposed to be pure breed, yet I don't know what they should look like and one of them looks way to gamey for me(I don't think I got exactly what I paid for).

Beverlyl, did you buy that pallet of feed you were talking about? I'm down to where I'm needing to buy some more, but prefer pellets. I called Double D and they said they had Southwest feeds pellets or crumbles for $1140, but if you buy 40 bags they take 10% off, for a net of...
Hello ca
I get my feed from Double D in Wickenburg, Serenity Tack and Feed on Grand also sells chicken feed. Double D seems to be the cheapest. Pratts at Grand and Thunderbird and The feed store on Waddell west of Litchfield?(not sure of exact location or name sorry) also have food, but they...
I was able to get a Brinsea real cheap from a friend, and I LOVE it. I pretty much just put the eggs in and don't worry about it, other than to add water every so often. My last hatch in my still air Little Giant was real bad and I had bought all the eggs 74 total and only got 27 to hatch. My...
I will get pictures of the roosters. I took a few of the chicks
This nasty little chick made a mess and guarantied that no other chicks get to sit on my couch...
The rest of these are of the chicks in the aquarium/brooder
Sorry not the best pictures. I will try to take more when I...
I had an amazing hatch from the eggs Mahorni gave me. I have 7 BCM, 3 Marans (Wheaten I think)??Mahonri am I right?, and 5 Americanas. I had one Amrericana that didn't hatch. I put in some from my flock and they hatched well too. I got 1 White leghorn/Buff orpington cross, 1 Easter...
Bob I get it at Double D in Wickenburg. My chickens eat it pretty well (they don't know any better it's all they have ever had)
Mahonri how would I know if it is Arizona Feed? all it says on the bag is Sun Valley Brand?? Is Arizona Feed not very good?
Thanks
Hello all. I am looking to buy a pallet of lay crumble for the growing flock. I really don't like going to the feed store at all and know that I can get some type of discount if I buy that much. Does anyone know of a shop on the west side that may sell me that much? I can get 40 50lb bags...
Ok so I posted pictures on the what are we board and I was told two females and two males, so I guess I dont need a rooster:( I really wanted more hens. I guess that I will have to wait till I can get more eggs.
Thanks I bought the eggs from Mahonri, a regular here on the boards. The eggs were beatiful I hope they start laying soon so that I will have pretty blue eggs. They are 4 months old give or take a week.
I have 4 chickens that came from blue eggs and I would love for them to be hens, but after looking at a few other messages I am thinking that I have two hens and two males:(
Hello all I am looking for a rooster from one of Mahonri's blue eggs, I am willing to pay for it. I am thinking that I may have gotten lucky and got all hens from my blue eggs and would love to have a rooster to match.
I have about 50 hens and at least half are pretty close to bald. I never really had an issue until I got a few chickens that were almost bald and ever since they seem to enjoy pecking each others feather out. I have them in a large coop and run, they get lots of fresh veggies and other...
I have a chick that just hatched and it is pulling around what looks like chicken insides. Is it possible that it is okay or is it really pulling around it insides? I cn't get a good picture in the incubator.
