    First time with a broody and so many questions!

    Hey yall! We have a hen that has gone broody, and she's on roughly day 7 today. She is a first-time brooder and she is one out of a flock of 15. I have read the books I have and scoured the web for what to do regarding her living arrangements and there is so much conflicting information and I'm...

    Newbie to Broody 🙋🏻‍♀️

    Hey! out of our flock of 15, one little lady (she’s either a blue Plymouth Rock or an Olive Egger, I still can’t tell the difference. Feel free to enlighten me!) and she’s 5 months old. She *might* have started laying eggs just recently but there are 12 others that I’m trying to keep up with, as...

    Nesting box question

    Our original nesting box (on the right in the picture attached) was a DIY project. Free, easy and still used daily by our original 3 OG's. Since then, we've added a dozen or so more to the flock and got a bigger nesting box system thing (on the left in the picture) for everyone to use. The new...

    Chicken + Rooster = Chick

    First attempt at Greek yogurt treat

    I mixed oats with Greek yogurt and served all the lovely ladies and gents. They are still unsure. Apologies for the ugly extension cord… 108° calls for a portacool. For this Mama, anyway! 🥸

    Salmon faverolle rooster?

    Tractor supply labeled this guy (?) as a salmon faverolle, but I am still unsure of the breed and gender. S/he is significantly larger than all of the flock yet very distinctive in colors. And I'm not certain Tractor Supply had the correct breed because s/he looks nothing like the others. Any...

    These 2 handsome (?) guys.

    My belief the last couple of weeks is that these two are cockerels, one seems to look like a bantam frizzle (please feel free to correct everything that I'm wrong about... I'm a complete novice and want to know my stuff!) except the researched temperament on that breed is the exact opposite of...

    Thousands of questions!

    Hey yall! I've been a long-time lurker and am now a newbie. We currently have a flock of 20, the new babes we got this year (17... tractor supply wins with temptation again!) to add to the lone 3 survivors from last year. They are all thriving well, health-wise. I am on a mission to determine...
