    I lost two dear hens yesterday

    I'm so sorry to hear that others have lost chickens during this heat wave, too. We lost our dearest, sweetest White Crested Black Polish hen on Friday. She'd survived blizzards, ice, and rainstorms just fine, but evidently the heat was too much. We are so sad. She was such a fun pet to have...

    WTB: 2 Polish Female Chicks, CT

    After losing our beautiful Blue Orpington to a raccoon, we would like to get two new female chicks to keep our White Crested Black Polish hen company. I would like to pick up the chicks rather than have them shipped. Do any of you CT (or nearby) folks have any Polish or Silkie chicks that you...

    Chickens losing weight, concave breasts!

    Will topical drops work for tapeworms? I am having a dickens of a time helping my blue Orpington hen. I gave her some Piperazine last week, but her stools are still watery and she is thinner than she was last summer. I see little cous cous things in some of the poops, too. That's tapeworm...

    Loose Stools? 1 year old hen

    I have noticed in the last few days that my 1 year old Blue Orpington is having some loose, grainy stools; I see it when she eats grass but think it may occur at other times. She is molting, and looking a little raggedy, but otherwise seems okay--still has an appetite. The other hen in the...

    10 week old Buff Orphington roo in Fairfield, CT

    Try placing a sign on the bulletin board at Benedict's, in Monroe, if you don't have any luck placing the roo here. That's what I did. Good luck! Susan

    Strange Polish behavior

    That picture is a hoot. Our Polish likes to drink muddy water. The other hen, a Blue Orp., won't touch it. Susan

    Good websites for chicken kitchen stuff?

    Try the various little shops on Etsy (www.etsy.com); it's an online marketplace for buying handmade things. I've seen some cute things on there, though I have not ordered anything yet. Susan

    Tell me about your Polish

    I have one white-crested black Polish hen, and she is really sweet. We've had her about 6 weeks. Supposedly she's a year old, but she does not lay any eggs right now. She now likes to go out free-ranging with our other hen, but I only let them do that when I am going to be with them. (We lost...

    Connecticut Chicken Stock

    Chickenstock CT-style sounds great! It's around the time of end-of-the-school-year craziness, but I'm hoping to be there. Susan

    Pictures of my Orpingtons

    Aren't they pretty! Your blue hen looks darker than mine; I just posted some pics in the "difference between blue & lavender" thread. It's interesting to see these differences. Susan
