    Was only getting green eggs and today I found a blue one

    I have three EE's and they all lay about 5 to 6 eggs a week. They have been laying since July and one of them keeps popping out double yolks. That's not an issue. The issue is that they have been laying light green eggs all this time. I walk out there this morning and a big blue egg is sitting...

    Silkie with a facial tic?

    I don't know if this is normal, or what. My 4 month old silkie has been doing this for as long as I can remember: she jerks and shakes her head. Kind of like when a dog shakes its head because something's bothering its ears or something. And she does it almost constantly, at least a few times a...

    Sleepy silkie

    I got 9 chicks today, one of which is a little black looking silkie. She sleeps an awful lot, but I have seen her run around a little bit and eat.

    Hot weather chicken coops?

    Where I live the coldest it usually gets is in the mid-40's, so I'm not too terribly concerned about winters. But in the summer (that lasts from May to October), it get's into the mid-100's with a lot of humidity for weeks at a time. I haven't built a coop yet, but what should I look for in my...

    Sexed day old silkies?

    My Pet Chicken says they're the only people who offer sexed day old silkies. I don't know anything about sexing chickens, so bear with me. WHY are they able to sex a silkie when apparently no one else can? I'd like to order some girls but I don't know if I can trust them or not. I really...
