    Mixed clutch of five week old chicks. Breed and Gender?

    Gertrude hatched this clutch of mixed eggs from my hens July 20th. It was the first time she had gone broody and I saved my eggs to give to her instead of buying eggs from a breeder cause I didn't know what kind of mother she would be. Plus I have a little Black Hen that I really wanted:fl a...

    Broody Hen with eggs-no chicks

    One of my hens has been setting a clutch for 24 days now and no chicks. She was broody for a bit over a week before I could get her some eggs. I had two setting at the same time and the other hatched 4 out of 6 Saturday (21st day). I guess that she will just set there until something hatches...

    Blue Ameraucana Cockerals-which to keep?

    I have these two Blue Ameraucana cockerals, and I have to decide which one to keep. There really isn't much difference. I got them at 3 weeks and Nod was always darker than Winkin. He still is ahead on that, but it maybe just a development thing because Nod also has the longer tail, saddle and...

    Blue Ameraucana...pullet?

    This chick hatched around May 4th....so almost three months old. There were two and judging between the two I thought this one was a cockeral and the other a pullet. The other one had a crooked beak though and was confusing; also, she didn't make it. So, I don't have a same age chick for...

    I found DE in Florence, SC

    I posted this also on Feeding Time, but anyway, I usually order DE from Custom Milling in Ga. Freight costs more than half what the 50 lb. bag costs. So, I called around again (almost out) and found that Bartlett Milling in Florence, SC carries Custom Milling products, but not the DE. They will...

This time I decided to call around (again) and see who carried anything from Custom Milling and found Bartlett Milling in Florence, SC-that can get it for me for way less that I was...

    Doberman eating Horse Manure?

    I know this is disgusting. We have a Doberman two year old who in an inside dog, basically, but needs to and does get outside for exercise. Since we got the chickens, It seemed to me that she wasn't getting out enough, cause if the chickens were scratching near the back door, we won't let her...

    Flock dynamics?

    I have five hens, one roo, one 7 week-old pullet, and a 7 week-old cockerel, that I am going to have to get rid of cause he is full sibling to the pullet. They are completely free range. By that I mean that they stay within an acre, but there are no fences, no neighbors for a half-mile radius...

    Mother hen attacking her chicks

    I am new on the forum, and I have a hen who hatched five chicks Tuesday, 26th. Yesterday when I checked them one chick was down. My son found it first and picked it up and said it was breathing and looked okay, it was just squatted down. Well, I made a mistake and told him( without checking the...
