    posting pictures on my page

    I thought I was doing great figuring out how to make a page and post pictures, but the final product shows a small box with a red x in place of the picture. It has the title of my picture, but no image. What am I doing wrong?!?! thank you so much, Sara

    interior coop pictures please!

    are you willing to post pictures of the inside of your coop? I'm still trying to figure out all the logistics. I'm thinking nest boxes to the side as you enter the coop, with the roost (with poop tray underneath it) stretching along the back wall....not sure what else to think about. I have...

    human door to coop?

    I'm looking at tons of coop designs and am wondering: how important is it to be able to walk inside the coop? I have 5 chicks- (maybe 1 will be a boy and have to leave?) and wonder how big it really needs to be. Space is kind of an issue- but if a human door is important, than I'll make the...

    roost size for chicks

    My oldest chicks are wanting to roost (they fly up to the top of the brooder and hang out and try to roost on my hand instead of sitting in the palm like they used to). What size roost should I put in the brooder (the oldest are almost 3 weeks old) and what size goes into the coop (still under...

    even vs. odd flock

    How important do you think it is to have an even number of chicks in a small flock? I planned to have 4 chickens but ended up getting a 5th incase something happens to one (like it is a roo that I can't keep). Someone recently got me worried that they should always be kept in even numbers so...

    red sex link chick looks like a RIR chick?

    Do Red Sex link Chicks (2 days old) look the same as Rhode Island Reds? The pictures I've seen show RSLs looking more red. I just bought a "RSL" and it looks just like my RIR did when I got her. thanks for any help!

    mixing chicks that are a week apart in age?

    I have 3 chicks now, but think I will have to 'relocate' one of them. I want to get 2 more on Monday (they will be just 5 days apart in age). Will this be OK? Will they flock together? Is there anything I have to take into consideration? The 2 I have now are a Rhode Island Red and a Black...

    constant pecking?

    Hi everyone, I'm new to all this chick raising- my babies came home on Wednesday (and were 1 day old when I got them). I have 1 (Ameraucana) who is bigger than the others and showing some early 'maleness'. What really worries me is "his" constant pecking. This chick will not let the others...
