    BROKEN TOE

    I have a chicken that has a broken toe. Lilly is my 6 month old EE and loves to be held/coddled. I was watching my brother's grandson yesterday for a few hours and he picked her up when I went into the barn. I heard her squawk and went running around there to see what happened. Apparently, she...

    Just ANOTHER Question

    My 'girls' will be 8 weeks old tomorrow (10/28). That should put them at the early egg laying age somewhere around late January to mid-February. I know that the egg laying age varies from species to species and bird to bird. And I know that the amount of light, natural or artificial, is...

The new brooder is 3 1/2 wide x 7 feet long and 3 feet tall. I don't have the top on it for the pictures, but the top has a large cut-out with wire over...

    I'M HOOKED

    What can I say...other than I'm hooked. I ordered 6 chicks in early August and got them in 2 weeks ago (9/5). I was almost a 'basket case' until they got here, but all 6 arrived alive and well. From the moment I opened the box I knew.....it's ON! And to be honest, it started even before that. I...
