It is so nice when someone wants to see your chickens pictures. Like a proud mama or grandma, here is Harvey. I took these this morning. And his son, Emerson. His son's mama is a black cochin.

Has anyone used TVP to feed their chickens? I ran out of oatmeal and used it for a few days and the egg production went from 4 to 10. Now I understand that TVP has at least 50% protein. Is this going to be harmful the the girls? Anyone else give this to their girls? Ellie

Ok, the breeder has blue and splash orps, black cochins and Marans. I got eggs from her and this one was marked blue orp. Ok, I know that is not a blue orpington, and look at the Marans feet. But what the heck? It does not look like the Marans that I have from her before. The feet do but...

Here is Autumn (I think) my cochin at a little over 4 months old. Do you think male or female? The cochin hatched at the same time is crowing. thanks

This is the new chick from an easter egger dad who was all white with a little rust on the wings and an all black large cochin mom. This is my first mom who has done the sitting and hatching of her very own egg. I usually get hatching eggs for my broody mamas but have my very own rooster this...

This is Harvey and Lacey... no reason to post really, except that I just love these guys.

I just noticed that my two roosters are not mating the hens as much now that Fall and Winter approach. Has anyone else noticed this? I was talking to another chicken friend, and she said that it could be that since the egg production goes down, that could be a reason. Makes sense. Your...

Hi, I have a Golden Laced Cochin male and a black cochin female? What will the chick grow up to look like? I mean, can it have lacing like the male? One of these is the father Here is the chick. This is the hen who sat and hatched out the chick but is NOT the mama. (She just went broody...

Hi, I clean out the chicken's run and have old feed that may have been wet. I don't want them to get any mold from this, but I'm having a heck of a time figuring out where to put the darned stuff. I don't want to put it outside my fence because we have sheep and again, don't want them to get...
