    Washingtonians Come Together! Washington Peeps

    How's everyone enjoying the lovely warm sunny days? The chooks are, for sure, getting their rays in and dustbathing. Currently just finished checking my broody's clutch for 3 weeks for stolen or placed eggs. I was on a cruise, and my son didn't check for eggs during the last few days, so I came...

    Washingtonians Come Together! Washington Peeps

    Haven't been here for quite some time. speaking of C, DH also had it, we believe, in Dec. 2019, We all got it over Christmas holidays. I lost both smell and taste for 6 mo., slowly regained both. Sometimes one or both can be wonky, or hypersensitive. We were on a cruise in January, everything...

    How long is too long away from eggs?

    My son efficiently collected eggs today, including ones that were under a broody pullet (by accident) They were brought into my cool 62°F house for about an hour. I put them back in the nesting box. Will they continue developing, or was I too late? Back story: I was away on vacation, and when I...

    What did you do with your flock today?

    Soooooo, I came back from my cruise, and apparently my son was intimidated by a broody olive egger, so he didn't get the eggs that she is setting. I really didn't want any chicks right now, but cannot sell these developing eggs. I got them and candled them, most are fertile and developing, on...

    What did you do in the garden today?

    Tomatoes and peppers don't mind root disturbance. It's the squash family that does....zucchini, rookneck, cucumbers, pumpkins and the like.

    PLEASE HELP!! Chicken missing flesh on head!! Skull showing

    Poor girl. Most important, get her to at least drink. You can use an eyedropper and just put the liquid at the side of her beak. You can also squirt raw egg yolk. She is probably in shock, and will take time to recover from that first. You are doing the best you can. Get incontinence pads to put...

    What is this? Cannot find any info. Strange feather or weird extra appendage?

    This thing is hard, stiff, and by feeling the base of it, runs up into her foot. The yellow sheath material seems to be in sections/layers. She will be 2 years old in March, Marans breed, so feathered legs. It doesn't seem to affect or impeded her at all, and she is molting now, with normal...
