    Does anybody have a chicken tattoo?

    I had an impulsive moment at the feed store.

    I bought a batch of runner ducklings last summer. I love them. We live on a river and they are now living down at the river rather than in the barn. I'm hoping they reproduce this year. Can't get to the eggs - they lay them on an island that I'd need a boat for and it's too cold to mess with...

    Sneezing hens. Best treatment?

    Thanks for the advice. Will freshen up the coop. It's a bit yucky. We're in a weird weather time with the thawing and all. I bet that's it.

    Sneezing hens. Best treatment?

    I've got one coop with some sneezing going on since yesterday. No other symptoms. No sluggish birds. Just 4 or so of 14 sneezing. No discharge. Is there something I should do? Kind of thinking respiratory infection in the early stages.

    Who says chickens can't fly?

    I have found that smaller chickens fly well. The heavy weights don't seem as prone to flying.

    First time Maple Tappers!

    Very cool, but my DH would kill me if I added one more hobby to my busy schedule.

    My Cull Wood Coop

    Great job! I've got a lot of coop building this spring so I'll have to look for cast offs at Lowes and our local lumber mill.

    Howdy from the Buckeye..

    Welcome to BYC. Great place to hang out with friends. I, too, learned that I did a lot wrong my first time having chickens. I'm doing much better this time around. Now just waiting for it to warm up so I can hang out with them more.

    I'm back and I missed you guys!

    Hi, All, Just wanted to say that I missed you all. We picked up a new contract with a Nursing home which increased us to (DH and I ) to 60 hours each for work since 12/1. I haven't had the time nor energy to visit here. We hired another PT and new are back to about 45-50 hours (I hope) so I...

    Meat Turkeys (would help if I could spell meat right)

    We haven't butchered any of the heritage breeds yet, just some production whites that we grew. I plan to keep the Bourbon Reds that I hatched late last summer. I have some pencilled palms also, May keep a couple just cause they look pretty.

    Nasty pecking chooks. Does anyone know what to do?

    Are the chickens new to each other or long standing coop mates? If they are new, they need to establish the pecking order and the lower ones will learn to get away. It sounds like you are in a warm climate where you can get outside. Mine are pecking because it has been sub zero here for quite...

    BYC KNITTING CLUB

    Quote: Miss Prissy, I used to feel that way, too. I started with knitted hats and just kept at it. Now I prefer to knit. Still not great at reading patterns, but I learn something new with each new project.

    Any New Yorkers out there?

    Welcome, Davis Hill Farm! I won't be setting up any bators in this cold weather. I'll start when spring is closer. I don't want the smelly little buggers in the house any longer than necessary. Plus, I need more coops if I want more chickens. No building this time of year.

    Rant about stupid egg-eating people!

    pips&peeps : We need to make up a "Here's your sign" for those kind of people.... I was just thinking that. Thanks for the laugh folks. We lost my dear MIL on Wednesday and I so needed a good laugh.

    BYC KNITTING CLUB

    I have noticed less wrist stress with the circulars, too. I just did a project with long straight needles and my left wrist ached a lot. I'll have to dig out the circulars for the next project and see if it helps. Thanks for the suggestion.
