    Chicken Butts

    The chickens (no matter what age) will peck at it on themselves. It's part of their preening. I've even seen my silkies raise a foot up and pick the stuff off that is stuck to the feathers on their feet and legs.

I'm wondering because 1 of my 12 "pullets" that I received from Sunnyside Hatchery June 5th (so they'll...

    The others are laying why isn't she?

    Do you have any roosters in your group? If all you have is females then one of the girls will act as the "rooster" and therefore won't lay eggs.

    anythin interestin???

    Oh my gosh that is huge!! Do they cause highway accidents? I imagine if they got squished on the road that would make quite a slippery spot. Sort of like mayfly season around here and that one place that has a problem with all the crabs on the road and everywhere.
