Hi,
We are planning on moving our flock of 19 hens to an entirely different location 4 hours away. Is there any natural supplement we can give to help with the stress of the transition beside ACV and yoghurt?
Thanks in advance!
Hi, I am new to hatching eggs and getting straight run chicks. So, of course we have beautiful roosters that we are not sure what to do with. I have a place that will take them for free but they are so pretty and for me, these chicks were hard to get. Of course to me they have great worth but...
I'm pretty sure these are two little pullets. One is a splash Copper Maran (I assume since it obviously didn't hatch a "blue" - the egg type I was sold) and the other is a Blue Copper Maran. What do you think? I have a brother to these who obviously has a swelling red comb, so by contrast I...
Sadly we think our friendliest little chick "Mischief" who likes to snuggle is a boy. He was our first to hatch of our first hatching ever and caused such havoc with all the other little eggs, just bowling over everyone! We are very attached :-( What do you think? He is 4.5 weeks old and an...

I'd like your opinion on roo or pullet and Wheaten or BW Amer.... I'm pretty sure about 1,3, 4 and 5 but 2 confuses me. Hoping for pullet :-) They are 3 weeks.
Thanks in advance!
When I cracked open an egg from one of our hens, I found this clump of "something" in it. What do you think it is? It looks really gross. The shell on this egg was unusually thin and other eggs from this hen have been normal. Has anyone seen anything like it? It was not fertile (no rooster...
Hi,
Can anyone tell if this is a pullet or a rooster? It is almonst 4 months. We were supposed to get all pullets but this one has started a deep sounding crowing :-( We are sad because it is so laid back, friendly and calm. We have become very attached....
Hi all! I am excited to find this resource!
My 10 yr old son has recently started a chicken egg "business". He was inspired by 1) wanting more pets but satisfying our demand to have no more pets that only consume and not produce and 2) a way to help him achieve his goal of paying most of his...
