    Can't decide the breed I want!

    Hey all! So it's been awhile since I've been on here. The last time was really I think after my last Buff Orpington mix passed away. Just shut down the idea of chickens for a while. Grieved for quite a bit. Now I feel like I still see that last hen out there in her coop sometimes. Miss them...

    Worming chicks?

    I was reading something the other day about gapeworm and it says that it comes from worms,snails and slugs outside. That got me worried about feeding my chicks worms while they are babies then since they might carry the gapeworm inside of them, then transfer to the baby chicks. (Something about...

    Sad Update - My bantam has started gasping for breath :(

    Okay, so now I noticed yesterday that my little Bantam that I thought had neurological problems seems to have stopped most of her episodes where she looked like she was having a seizure. But, last night I noticed that she started gasping for breath. It seems almost like she's hot, but the temp...

    Money Saving Ideas

    A good idea in these tough financial times are figuring out ways of saving money. So, as I was thinking (and someone pointed out just now) why not start a thread on good ways to save money? My brain isn't working right now since it's still on my sick chickie babe so I can't contribute any right...

    Sad Update on Haley :( 3 wk old chick sneezing turned worse

    One of my New Hampshire Red pullets started sneezing a week ago. I noticed that she was eating fine, drinking, running around, basically seemed just fine. Until now. Just yesterday I realized that she is half the size of her sister. I thought in the beginning that it was simply that she was...

    Bothell, WA friend needs to sell his American Bulldog female

    A friend of mine can no longer take care of his American Bulldog puppy that he recently purchased. He's looking for somebody that can take her.

    Could it be seizures? Something else?

    Hmm, so on top of one of my New Hampshire chicks having the sneezies which nearly made me freak out - I don't think anything is wrong, it's just mainly in the mornings she gets a little sneezy and otherwise is healthy and good. One of my bantam chicks seems to have some probs. I have noticed...

    Will be selling two bantams. Breed-Unknown. Location-Bothell,WA

    I am so incredibly bummed to have to do this, but I am going to be selling my little bantams that my mom bought me recently. I say 'will be' simply because #1 - I don't want stress them much right now by moving them around and #2 - I can only have three chickens by city ordinances and I am...

    Over a week old now. Any better ideas?

    So, here are some new photos of the babies. I know for sure that they are Bantams now at least Saw the receipt. The store says the way they ordered was Misc Bantams so that is why they had no idea what they were. Hmm. They've started to develop a brown ring around their beaks. Try to get...

    Hmm ... Always thought they were Buff Orpingtons but now not sure ...

    So I was looking at my little remaining lady - Lily - today and was thinking that I wonder if she really is a Buff Orpington? I'd always thought they were (wish I thought of asking last year ) but now not sure about it. My bf got them from a woman in Snohomish, WA, then she gave me the three I...

    Personality and temperament OEG Bantams & NHR Hens

    Hey everyone In my other thread I was trying to figure out what exactly I received from the feed store and it seems to be the million dollar question as to what the bantams are for sure. I uploaded more pics, have the question out there in a numer of sites and don't seem to be finding anything...

    Treats for the babies and at what age to start?

    I have been reading books that say you shouldn't give treats to baby chicks and I was figuring I'd ask the pros here. When raising baby chicks, at what age can you start giving them treats, and what kinds of things to start with, do they like, etc? Thank you

    Buff Orpingtons and heart attacks? Lone sister help too? Long post.

    I couldn't think of a better place for this since I don't think that this would work in the disease section - I don't think it's a disease - and it isn't an emergency since it's simply a question. I'm gonna be all over the place since I'm rushed and a thousand thoughts are running through my...

    Cause of watery whites?

    Hey, Couple questions. I am just wondering, what causes an egg white to be runny? Is it bad if it is? I know that the better fed chickens are the yellower the yolks and calcium affects the shell, but the whites? What can you do if the whites are runny and clear (almost like water) what foods...

    Other Calcium options

    Hey there, Have had our [3] chickens for over a month now and loving them:) They each have their own personality and are just great. They are producing us anywhere from 2-3 eggs a day. So that leads me to my question. . . I am wondering what other options (food wise of course)are available...
