    4 x8 coop

    Two great birds. They fly, like to be around one another. Were saved from culling 'cause i thought they would be good pets. They are. They lay eggs and are not too big considering they are bred as meat birds.

    hatchling under broody!!

    one little chickie, lots more eggs. this is my first time. I read the stickies on hatching, but i'm concerned that i don't see any more "pips" or "zips" in the clutch. these are new mommies too. any chance the girls didn't incubate evenly? when should i worry about not seeing pips in the...

    BTW Japanese hen and roo for sale in Connecticut

    He fertilizes, she lays--actually she's joined her sister and is broody at the moment. The male is not related to the sisters, so you could start your own little collection of cuties. I'm moving and need to let the roo go. I'd like to send him off with at least one of the girls. If you can...

    BTW Japanese hen and roo for sale in Connecticut

    $15 takes both. she lays, he fertilizes (not in that order, of course). Her sister is currently brooding, so i'll keep her. They're known for being good brooders, so you could start your own line. They are not related. Hen came from another BYCer in RI, roo came from local feedstore...

    Where's the blood?

    I had my first predator "attack." I say "attack" 'cause I can't figure out what happened. I let the birds freerange. One got caught behind the fenced area and couldn't get back to the group. This happens all the time, usually they figure it out. So when I went out to refresh the water, I...

    What's a good price for a meat chicken?
