    Is this poop ok or do i need to treat something?

    OK look away if you are afraid! But I have 1 girl and I'm pretty sure I know who it is (1 out of 6). She seems perfectly normal as far as eating and behavior.

    The question of the day of course, hen or roo?

    We ended up getting 6 chicks all different breeds. I know I probably won't be able to identify what is which breed for a little bit longer. We do have a list of what they were supposed to be. My daughter has a favorite little girl (They are all supposed to be female, but nothing is 100% and we...

    Why do they go to sleep like this?

    My babies are almost 3 weeks old and they have been huddling like this by the door at night. They started this a few days after moving to a bigger brooder about 2 weeks ago. The temp under their plate is mild and they relax under it and nap during the day. But come lights out? They always head...
