We have not even named them yet but we brought home the new flock Saturday (oct 15ht)

the run.
We are excited about the blue andalusians as the last ones we got we black...
I have a broody silkie, we got two fertile creme legbar eggs for her to sit on. September 15th is when she started sitting on them.
It's now October 14

How long should we let her sit on them before we write them off as not going to hatch??
I have a broody silkie (imagine that) I got a couple of fertile cream legbar eggs for her to sit on.

Claire our bearded white silkie had her crown and chest feather plucked out.

The new ones are afraid of Claire and when we let them out to free range
Dottie and Darla beat feet away from Claire.
Claire makes...
Clair our crested white silke has been being plucked for months.
We sold off two who were picking on everyone but it seems like she is still
getting picked on by the remaining chicken.
We have tried to segregate her but all she does is pace back and forth trying to get into the main run...

The bullies in the flock have pecked out most of her crown feathers out and some on her chest.
We used purple stuff we had on her chest and I ordered Blu Kote for her.
Can we use it on her head??
We planned to use a q-tip to keep it out of her eyes.
Any suggestions /experience???

Hi All,
We just got a new ameraucana chick a couple days ago we named her Beth.
She is settling in fine and really is a pretty chick.
