    Please help.. I'm concerned

    My chickens only go in the coop to lay eggs in their nesting boxes.... they will not go in at night. They all cuddle together on the outside roosting bar. I'm really concerned because It's getting cold here. I live in SC so it's not as cold as other places but it's supposed to be freezing...

    My chickens just laid their first eggs!!!

    I'm sorry if I'm posting in the wrong spot (I didn't see an Info on Egg thread). I went out of town over Labor Day and I came home to find my chickens laid a dozen and 1/2 eggs!! I was so excited!! But how safe are they to eat at this point? How long can they be outside in the heat? I feel like...

    Can someone tell me what breed I have?

    I posted pics a few weeks ago and was told that my chicks look like Cinnamon queens/red sex links? I'm still new at all of this and learning different breeds etc... I want to post another pic now that they are a little older and get your feed back. Thank you! I love this site!

    Hello Everyone, Last week I moved my chicks to their coop and all is well so far (except I'm having to put them up at night).... but other than that they seem to be adjusting. However, we are expected to get a lot of rain and possibly severe storms today and tomorrow. Should I make them go In...

    New pic of my girls.

    This is the first time I've let them outside (for a few hours) and I was able to get a new picture. Originally Tractor Supply said I had white Leghorn pullets but I posted a pic a few days ago and it appears that they aren't leghorns? I thought I post again in the daylight to see what you guys...

    Anyone know what kind of chickens I have?

    I bought these pullets from Tractor Supply two weeks ago today. I thought they were White Leghorn pullets?[/IMG]. I didn't want roosters so they told me to only pick from one specific brooder... can y'all tell by these pics?
