    Duck eggs are THE BEST for anything baked; they just make it taste so much richer. YUMMY!

    Hens pecking out of control

    I would use Blue Kote. Would also rehome/cull the pluckers. Just my opinion.

    What treat did your chickies get today?

    Mine too - they can eat all the weeds and grass they want but they seem to REALLY like it when I pull it and hold it for them to eat. Spoiled indeed!

    Email address

    I have tried on numerous occasions to change my email address but always get a message saying there was an error processing this request. I don't want to receive newsletters on my phone but I do want to receive them. Why will "it" not let me change my email address?

    Good price?

    Prices can vary dramatically depending on where you get your feed. For convenience sake, I have bought feed at a local feed store and paid around $23 for a 50lb bag. When I drive the few extra miles to TSC, I get it for $15.

    Review by '' on item 'Australorp'

    My DH bought me chickens for my 60th b'day; 2 Australorps, 2 Lt Brahmas and 1 Easter Egger (turned out to be a bantam). The Australorps are by far the friendliest and IMHO prettiest girls I have. They are always the first to run see if it is me or DH when the back door opens. If me, they run up...

    Can I use ONLY diatomaceous earth for my chickens' dust baths? Do I need to add in anything else?

    My girls seem to want to roll around in mud. Where ever I clean out their waterers or feeders or rinse poop off my "chicken shoes" is just exactly where they want to roll. Obviously doesn't show up so much on my Australorps but the Lt Brahmas look sooo funny with mud/dirt on their faces/heads...

    Comment by 'Maggie C' in article 'Deciding To Free Range Your Flock'

    Excellent article; well written and informative. I was aware that free ranged chickens provided better eggs and meat, just didn't realize how much better. Glad my yard is such that my girls can free range most of the time.

    Faking broody?

    Sorry, I have no knowledge of Polish but I do have a Light Brahma that is behaving similarly. What the heck is up with that? She has always laid her eggs later in the day - 1-2pm and now she stays in the nest box until the following morning. Funny though, she is usually the first one out of the...

    How very beautiful! The Easter Bunny couldn't have done a better job! Yeah, I vote for Easter Eggers.

    YOLKS ARE BREAKING=(

    That is a fair amount of corn. Personally, I don't give mine cracked/dried corn at all. Once in a while they get an ear of fresh corn or some canned corn - leftover. I do not include corn in the scratch mixture that I make for them. That is just my preference since corn is a starch and doesn't...

    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    5 from 5: 4 brown, 1 pinky beige from my EE bantam

    White eggs vs brown eggs.

    I suspect it has to do with the fact that many of the "organic" eggs are brown. For whatever reason folks associate brown eggs with being healthier. LOL Chickens that are well fed and have plenty of room to forage for their own bugs, etc. are the ones that lay the healthiest eggs - no matter...

    Can I give my chickens salad dressing?

    My girls occasionally get some iceberg - usually mixed with other greens and they seem to tolerate it with no problems - no diarrhea. Don't know that I would feed them just the iceberg - I don't eat that stuff myself. LOL
