    How long for separation?

    Hi chicken tenders! I went out to collect my eggs yesterday and found my Ginger’s head all bloody. I have no idea what happened but her feathers were ALL fluffed and she had a clear comb injury. She is probably my least handleable hen but under the circumstances let me snag her and was chill...

    Overwhelmed with layer feed!

    Hiya chicken tenders! So I have a flock with 2 older pullets (around 18 weeks) and 3 laying hens. I’ve had them on Kalmbach flock maker crumbles since I got them. They also get bar ale scratch and encore greens since they don’t free range with an occasional scoop of BSF or mealworms. Now that my...

    Adding pullets to the flock

    Hello chicken tenders! I have 3 hens and 2 pullets in my flock. My frizzle EE and cream legbar pullets are in the midst of integration. We did several weeks of see don’t touch where I put them in a crate within the run during the day and at night took them back to their coop. The past few days...

    I snagged an itty bitty…

    Hi chicken mamas and papas! I’ve had a split flock until a few days ago. I had silkies I raised up with my frizzle EE in their own coop and then 3 full sized hens in another. I realized two coops plus their temp box for cleaning time was a lot of work so my silkies found a new home and I snagged...

    Albumen like jelly?

    I have a one year old Ameraucana with crossbeak that I’ve had about a month now. She started laying after her move here about two weeks ago. The first week despite having oyster available at all times, she was laying eggs like water balloons. She’d lay her good eggs in the nesting boxes and the...

    Omlet coop- Florida below freezing

    First time hen owner in the COLD 🥶 I’ve only had my hens a few weeks and the weather has been beautiful since our freak snow storm. Tonight it’s supposed to drop into the high 20’s. Being a Floridian I didn’t think to buy the cold weather cover. I folded a moving blanket leaving the backside...

Anyway...

    SHE is my favorite so she’ll probably be a he😫

    These are my 5 week old chicklets, 4 silkies and an Easter egger my 3 year old picked out. I know with silkies ya pretty much wait for an egg or a crow, but I love this little EE and am hoping she isn’t a he. Any guesses?
