    Sudden sickness?!? Please help!

    Today we went out to tend our chickens and noticed that one of our older Bovan Brown hens has suddenly gotten a floppy comb. She’s pretty latgargic as well, sometimes standing in one spot with her eyes closed. We’ve had other chickens become lathargic like this about six months ago. Four...

    What’s Your Rating of Meyer Hatchery?

    So we found Meyer hatchery, and were planning to order three D’Uccle bantams. We were blown away that the prices were so affordable and the availability of the chicks compared to the other hatchery we’ve ordered from in the past. All good things, but I’ve begun to worry if it was too good to...

    Is this a Pullet or am I wrong?

    We hatched this chick under a broody and we were almost positive it was a pullet, but now we’re second guessing ourselves. It’s a cross breed but we don’t know of what breeds. We think Rhode Island Red and EE cross but not sure. Any input is appreciated. Thanks in advance!

    When is my Mille Fleur d’Uccle cock going to mature?

    Could someone please tell me how long it take Mille Fleur d’Uccle cocks to mature and be able to breed/fertilize eggs? I bought him hoping that I could have a family of d’uccles.

    Momma hen raising chicks

    We have been letting our broody sit on five eggs in the coop that we keep four other hens in. Four of the eggs just hatched and I’m getting kind of nervous about leaving the momma and her babies in the same coop as the bigger hens.

    Broody hen problems

    One of our bantams has started sitting on our other chickens eggs. She puffs her feathers out and let’s out this horrific sound until we go away. It’s gotten so bad that we have to pick her up and move her off the eggs. We don’t even have a rooster so the eggs can’t be fertile. We know that...

    My chickens have laid perfect eggs for me for about a year now. A week or so ago I noticed that we were having less eggs, but that wasn’t what was bothering me. One of our chickens (I can’t tell which one) has started laying eggs that are white instead of the light brown color and the egg has...

    Ceramic eggs?

    Do ceramic eggs really make a difference in the laying speed of your chickens? I’ve read that they encourage chickens to lay more but I don’t know if that is just when they are laying for the first time. Anybody know anything about this? Will try anything that helps my girls lay more!
