    Where have my eggies gone???

    (Posted this in the wrong section first...so sorry!) My three girls began laying in November at 24 weeks. I was shocked that they would start laying so late in the year, having understood that laying decreases or even stops in the winter. Immediately, we were getting a minimum of two eggs per...

    Breed my pullet!

    Alright you smart folks! For your consideration, I offer my 21 week old pullet, Poulet. I was thinking Australorp, but she has recently developed the teeny tiny blondeish feathers on her neck. Just in front and no where else. Her feet appear dark on the underside. She has a great disposition and...

    Golf balls?

    I have three lovely ladies (two BRs and one Australorp) who will be 17 weeks old tomorrow. Their combs are starting to redden and are growing much more in recent weeks, so I'm starting to wonder about laying. I've read a variety of posts and articles about when POL occurs. I was thinking that we...

    Feeding 16 Week Olds

    Please help me with some confusion on the feed end. I currently have four 16 week olds (1 BR roo, 2 BR pullets, and 1 Australorp pullet). I've been using the Purina Start & Grow from Week 1 for the babies and the bag suggests that at 18 Weeks I switch to Purina Layena. I know that I want to...

    Modern Game Chick

    Alright, peeps! I offer for your opinions a 3-4 Week Old Modern Game chick. At 2 weeks old, the feathering was very advanced, leading me to think female, yet the new development in the comb makes me think male. The pinkness of the comb is not as visible to the eye, but is very clear on camera...

    Brinsea Octagon 20 Advance EX versus King Suro 20

    If this is in the wrong section, please forgive me, but I don't know of one specifically for equipment questions... I am finally kicking my LG to the curb! I work full time, along with running our farm, and just don't have the time to babysit the darn thing to the extent that it evidently...

    Barred Rock Roo 10 Weeks

    We have one BR cutie pie looking for a good home! He is just about 10 weeks (as of 8/13/10) and is quite the gentleman. We have a very small flock and will not have the room that this little guy needs and deserves. He is quiet and inquisitive, never at all aggressive or a bully. He will come...

    Barred Rocks at 9 weeks

    Below are photos of my 3 BRs and 1 who has been deemed a Black Sex Link pullet by a gentleman from USDA and another from Penn State. I am thinking that I have one Roo here, as one of the BRs is definitely lighter and is developing a comb. The issue is that I began with a total of eight, four of...

    9 Week Old BR Roo???

    I was out collecting tomatoes from the garden this morning and heard a distinct and clear (yet quiet) crow. I know that I sucked wind on that one! I am praying that it was just a sound echoing off the barn from the farm behind us, but honestly...I think that's just me wishing it away. I'll...

    First hatch going into "lockdown" this afternoon...

    I am going through my first hatch...started in July. Today is Day 18 and we are set to lockdown this afternoon.

    WTB Silver Penciled Plymouth Rocks

    Does anyone have a source for Silver Penciled Rock chicks? Everything I have seen relates to hatching eggs, yet I know nothing of hatching and have none of the materials. I would love to find some chicks, but only McMurray appears to have them in the Standard size and the minimum of 25 is much...

    New Coop and Covered Run

    Well, I can't claim design or construction of the coop...I'm a cheater! We did design and build the outdoor run attached, though! A portion running behind the coop only has a wire top, since the tree and coop provide shade. The rest of the run gets plenty of sun, even with the top. We wanted...
