    Respiratory infection?

    I've been reading a lot of the old threads and such here, but thought I'd post since I'm including photos. The short of it is that she was somewhat alert a few days ago but was sitting in the hay of the goat house by herself for two days in a row (not on brooding). After I kept see her...

    Jx2inNC Hatch Thread

    Well, I made the decision to give incubating and hatching a try for the first time, so thought I'd document some of the stuff here. I picked up a Little Giant 9200 + auto egg turner this weekend. I've got it setup in an extra room that I can close off and leave pretty secluded. Now I've read a...

    Random Color Breeding...or No?

    If you intend to *possibly* have a little side pet project in letting certain chickens breed, are you doing yourself more of a disservice in letting mixed colors of the same breed mate? I have three groups I have considered this with: 1) Cochins - two black hens, one silver pencilled hen, and...

    I'm having trouble placing this bird...

    What does BYC think? I guessed an OE of some kind, as I am told it is a bantam, but other than that I can't say I've figured it out. The chicken was sold at a local feed store or something, so I don't think it is a mutt from someone's personal group.

    ~5 week old Barred Rock: Weak legs/Loss of Balance

    Posted in my personal chicken(s) thread: https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=4254176#p4254176 No sickness appears obvious. The chicken is pretty bright eyed, even talkative as normal, and doesn't try to sleep constantly like some sick chickens I've read about with similar...

    Our best guesses... what's yours??

    Here are a few pics of our chicks, somewhere in the 4 week old range right now. We have speculations as to what gender they are, but thought I would get feedback from everyone on here! RIR & EE got bigger a lot faster than the rest, so we thought they were roosters, but now are showing...

    Canning!! (or freezing!) need ideas

    We just planted our garden (at our new house) about a month ago and it actually looks really good so far!! I was a little worried since this was the first time making a garden spot at this house, how the soil would turn out, etc. but I think it is going to make it! So anyways, Jared bought...

    Can I put a turkey in with my chickens?

    So we are new to the chicken business and have a small interest in turkeys as well. Right now, we have 12 baby chicks apprx 3-4weeks old. We are interested in turkeys and had heard that you could put a turkey in with chickens. Is this true? If so, would it matter if it were male/female? At what...

    The Big Move

    The chickens are about 3-4 weeks old or so I'd say. They are getting quite a decent number of feathers now (see: my Pictures thread, although those pictures are a week and a half or two ago). Here is an example of the weather in my area: http://www.weather.com/weather/tenday/27205...

    My 1st Southern Coop

    I posted these pictures in my chicken thread, but I figured this was more appropriate for a coop specific location. I have been at it now with the help of Julie (of course ), and her grandfather on Saturdays, for about 3 weeks now. I'd say it is coming along pretty good. I hope to have it done...

    NC - My 1st Chickens

    Well, living in rural NC I figured it was about time... Since I have yet to load the pictures of the current status of the house & pen, I'll ease into this one with some pictures of the chickens that are currently awaiting their new home: (These pictures are a week or so old, so they have...
