    I must be crazy in Western Pa.

    You sound a lot like me! I am picking up my chicks today at Meyer Hatchery. Driving 2 hrs one way. Usually my DH will stop me but I think he likes them just as much as I do!

    Everyone's picking on one hen

    We put her back in yesterday and so far it seems to have given her an ego check. I have checked on them a few times and she is not as pushy as before. This morning I have given them some wet cat food (they devoured it), dry cat food (same thing), BOSS and broccoli. I think they are missing...

    Everyone's picking on one hen

    I have one BA hen picking on 4 other hens. I thought for the last week that it was probably her but today I finally got confirmation. She pecked 3 of the others in the space of 20 minutes. I separated her to a dog crate in the garage and will leave her there until tomorrow. Then I will try...

    When did you start with chickens?

    We moved to the country 5 years ago. Our new neighbors had horses and donkeys. I ended up going out to a farm with them to look at one of their horses. They had a barn full of chickens and I fell in love. They had all kinds. She offered to give me as many as would fit in a dog crate for...

    Eww..yuck....ANOTHER NEW PIC !

    OMG! I just caught this thread! LMAO! My DH had one of these a few years ago. We were building our house and one day he says, "Do I have something on my back? It kind of hurts." He pulls up his shirt and there is a baseball size bump, totally red, that stinks to high heaven. Anyway, long...

    That was exactly what I was thinking! I told my daughter we would soon have a naked neck! I just wanted to run this by some more knowledgeable chicken people. Thanks, SpeckledHen!

    Molting? sorry long post (pics)

    I have 5 chickens that are a little over 6 months old. They are in a 10 x 6 coop with plenty of room to run around. They have been laying since Dec. 15 and I usually get 4-5 eggs per day. I have noticed over the last 2 weeks that my brahma is losing feathers on her neck. She has a pretty big...

    how many eggs...

    My catalog from Meyer Hatchery says that they are very good layers that lay a creamy tinted medium egg. I was thinking of getting a couple of these this spring. It says that the average mature weight for hens is 6 1/2 lbs. Does this sound about right or are they maybe breeding larger birds...

    Have you ever gotten teased about your chickens?

    I got started with chickens this past June and my mother thought I was nuts! By the time August came around, she was asking to come over for breakfast on Saturday morning to watch them. She would bring the bagels and I supplied my peach and blackberry jam. She said she loves to watch them...

    A few pics that I took of my girls today...

    We just got a foot of snow last night into today so enjoy any kind of grass you can. At least your girls can get out. Mine will not come out when there's white on the ground. They have been cooped up for quite a while now (at least they don't seem to mind it)! They get lots of treats and...

    Anyone Ordered from Mt. Healthy?

    I got my chicks in June from Mt. Healthy. I got 2 EE's, 2 black australorps, and 1 lt. brahma. One EE lays a really pretty blue egg and one lays a really light brown/pink egg. The australorps lay me an egg every morning and the lt brahma lays just about an egg a day (maybe will take off the...
