On June 5th I got to see my first ever live hatch. It was exciting right up until the chic cleared the egg and the hen attacked and scalped the chic. Yeah, no!! So for 13 weeks now I've had this baby in the house while she healed. Only egg in the clutch to hatch. The hen that laid this egg is a...

I have a single chick that hatched 4 days ago. She has been inside with me from day one as I managed to catch my first ever hatch. The chick was attacked by the Mama hen the second she cleared the egg, so of course I snatched her up did some research here and she's been good with her scalped...

So I have what I thought was a year old Dominique hen. Then I got 2 Barred Rock pullets. Thanks to chicken OCD's I've also purchased a couple of books on chickens and read a bunch online.

So I survived inherting a flock after Hurricane Harvey and spring came. One trip into TSC and I had chick fever in the worst way! Of course I brought 7 bantams and 2 standard chicks home with me. Almost 3 months later and I still have zero idea of what type they are. Probaby not the ones I...
