So my friend has hair down to her knees, and every once in a great while she decides to shock people and wear a "bob cut" wig....I mean SHORT WIG! You should see people! They go into a panic thinkin she cut her long hair :lau. I say go get a wig (and maybe make it blond or grey (like your...
LOL....we sometimes get too cautious because of bein on here readin other people who end up with dead chickens because they didn't prepare...so I guess we assume most new people here are new to chickens. Please forgive us. You're gonna get about 100 people tellin you their particular breed is...
So true! The bell idea is a cute one. I just started sittin outside and yellin "Come here babies" and those that came got treats, latecomers or ones scared did not. I do this with all my chicks and eventually everyone comes over to the "treat side", lol. If I have to put mine in early it is...
That is so neat that there is an option out there to help others! My first introduction to butchering chickens was my first chickens. I got them at TSC along with a coop and food. Unbeknownst to me, I was sold Cornish X (6 of them). I didn't get to go through the cute little chickie stage for...
Go to the Arizona state forum thread and start readin or askin. You'll probably get a great idea and may be able to pick up some from a fellow BYC'er!:highfive:

Oh my lands....laughin so hard I'm havin to catch my breath! Wasn't expectin that post. Hilarious!!!!!! Michigan can have their snow....I'll take rain anyday :lau
Agreed! I really love this feed store, they are always bringin in new breeds and it's been a blast just gettin 2 of each different breed I want to try. On the other hand, it's funny how some of us can have the exact same breed and one ends up with "the chickens from Hades" and another says...
They lay at least every other day and sometimes everyday. They are also known to be broody though mine have not done so yet (they aren't a year old yet). I got them from a feed store here that orders from different hatcheries and I have been able to raise about 15 different breeds so far which...
