    Tight leg band issue

    How am I to remove a super tight leg band? It's not impeding circulation or walking, but I've obviously left it on too long for my snips to remove it. Does anyone have a creative & safe way to get this thing off?! Any personal experiences?

    This is my Ameraucana pullet. She is either wheaten or blue wheaten, but I'm having trouble deciding which one. She appears to be more BW; however, she has some black in her tail. What do you think?

    Is it too late to put hatching eggs under a broody on day 7 or 8?

    Today marks the start of day three for my newest broody hen. I've worked the last two days, could I still get other hatching eggs and put under her at this point -- they probably wouldn't be here till Tues or Wed? In the end, that would put her sitting on eggs for almost thirty days! Some...

    Why is selling these chicks so hard - what would you do?

    Selling momma hen's chicks - how will this affect her?

    I have a buff Orpington who hatched 9 chicks on July 3rd. Today, I was planning to sell 6 of the 9. Is this going to upset momma, or will she adapt fairly easily? She is a very attentive momma. If you have a similar experience, please share it with me. Thanks!
