    poll: are you legal or an outlaw?

    I'm 6 miles from city limits, but have been recently been told I'm an outlaw. Area Planning Commission is 'forcing' me to get rid of my birds by January 9th & I'm extremely unhappy!! I'm gonna fight, but have removed both my flock of Mille Fleur D'Uccles & my Khaki Campbells. Will be hiding...

    for those that use deep litter method...please advise me

    Forgot to mention... I use alfalfa hay for bedding. It's softer than straw & the chickens love to pick through it & eat the alfalfa, etc. Plus I love the smell of it! LoL!! In my brooder, I use pine shavings. I have a Brinsea 50-chick brooder & I made the brooder house myself out of wood &...

    for those that use deep litter method...please advise me

    I use deep litter method. I've had an epic failure using it & now do so successfully. Epic failure - Make sure, double sure, you can turn what's already there before adding fresh bedding!! I wasn't able to turn it because in haste (ran out of time before winter hit!!) we had installed a...

    Ok really! WHO IS SICK OF IT?! ~UPDATED!~

    I have 4 bantam Mille Fleur D'Uccles that are now 7-1/2 months old & still not laying. Their waddles/combs are nice & red. I told them to take their time...they are! LoL!! I've had chickens start laying as young as 4 months & others take almost a year to start. I think time of year, breed &...

    Post here if you DON'T wash clean-looking eggs

    I use a stiff brush to 'clean' my eggs. Very, very rarely do I rinse them & when I do, only water. My duck eggs get rinsed more often than my chicken eggs though! LoL!!

    Easter Egger pullet suddenly stops laying??

    But I LOVE my green egg!! Which I haven't received in over 2 months. I have two things going on as far as I can tell. The 1st is daylight has been decreasing since June 21st. I live in Northern Indiana. I don't believe we're getting even just 12 hours of daylight per day right now. I have...

    My chicken's comb is half torn off. Need HELP!!

    I haven't needed to do this yet. I did, however, have to remove spurs from a 2-year old rooster. That was bloody. I actually kept him separated for a couple of days due to not being able to get him to stop mating - thereby reopening his 'wounds'. I have several chickens - right around 35 in...

    Easter Egger pullet suddenly stops laying??

    I have a lot of chickens...and they are all healthy, happy, fat with normal poo. One of my Easter Egger pullets, Lacey, is right around 6 months old. She had been giving me a beautiful green egg at least every other day. It was almost 'sale' size. She suddenly stopped. Completely. It's...

    Will 2 roo's be more noisy than 1?

    I have 2 roosters currently crowing and 4 up & coming. I'm re-homing 1 of them, but the others are planned to stay put. My only actual rooster is a Polish - they're noisier than most. The crowing cock is an Easter Egger. Of the up & coming cock's I'm keeping, I have a Silver-Laced Cochin...
