    Finally!

    I think I'm done building...at least until we move out of the city and have more space :P. We started out with a raised coop from craigslist with plans to build a detachable run and to move it every week or two. We built the run, did this all summer long, and we realized that the coop is too...

    New Pullets!

    We started out with eight straight run babies this spring, a few died to illness and the remaining five ALL turned out to be boys. Can't have them in city limits, so we got rid of the boys and are starting fresh with three pullets, just picked them up yesterday! I'm glad we had the experience of...

    Wanted: 3 pullets in WA

    We started out with 8 straight run chicks in May, and after losing three to various health issues, we're left with 5 that have all turned out to be healthy, rambunctious boys that will need to be rehomed or made into dinner soon since we can't keep them in city limits. There's no point in us...

    Two 10 week EE mix cockerels - WA

    I have two handsome 10 week old easter egger mix cockerels for free to good home, I'm not sure of the mix, they were sold to me as week old straight run ameraucanas but EE/RIR is the prevailing theory. I'm in Tacoma and would prefer the new owner to pick them up, but would be willing to meet...

    Too many greens?

    I've been letting my 10 week old chicks get a few hours of free-range time in every day in the morning and evening, and when I let them out they go straight for the dandelions (which make up at least half of my yard). They also eat the clover, mint, my hostas, pretty much everything they can get...

    Is my chick sick?

    I have a nearly 8 week old light brahma chick that has me stymied. For the last two weeks her posture has become increasingly hunched, like she keeps her neck as short as possible. At first we made jokes about how she's extra puffy and has no neck (it's like her beak sits on her chest), but her...

    Help sexing some 7 week old EEs and light brahmas?

    If ya'll wouldn't mind, I'd appreciate some help sexing my chicks. They're almost 7 weeks old, and we have 4 easter eggers and 3 light brahmas, (we picked them up from the same batches and same farm @ 1 week). I'm 95% sure two of the eggers are boys and thinking maybe one of the brahmas as well...

    Just built a treadle feeder!

    Using these plans (with some minor modifications), I spent the last few days putting this bad boy together and I'm really pleased with how well it turned out! It takes about 2 lbs of pressure to open, so my chicks need to gain about half a pound, but I figure they'll put that on over the time...

    Howdy!

    I've been lurking for a while but finally decided I needed an account :). I grew up with chickens and ducks but have been a long time without...then my husband decided he also likes the idea of keeping a few chicks in the backyard, so we set up a brooder in our spare room, got some babies, and...
