    Big Business!!

    This year I have been trying to start a new flock after not having chickens for 10 years. I’ve gotten a high number of roosters unfortunately. It’s been a long and stressful process to get a dozen good hens. I’ve re homed 4 already and I have 3-5 more to go. Spoke with the breeder I got the...

    I play country music 🤠

    I now have 17 chicks in the brooder, after rehoming a few of my roosters. They are in my laundry room currently. As much as I take care of them, you would think they would like me. But unfortunately they do not! Every time I walk in it’s a total panic in the brooder, I’ve even tried treats with...

    Blue Laced Red Wyandotte

    I have 2 chicks I got at the farm store marked Blue Laced Red Wyandotte. They are one week old. The dark one I’m pretty sure is a gold laced? I have a hunch it’s a Roo? The lighter one is a beautiful chick, really hoping a hen. But I’m not sure if it’s a blue laced red, any thoughts on any...

    Beyond frustrated…

    It’s snowing, so I didn’t want to drive an hour to IFA for chicks. Then decided to try our local farm store(prior problems, long story) they were expecting 100 chicks. Well they didn’t get there shipment, no chicks. So decided to drive the hour, get there and all they got were bantams and...

    Pearl Onyx/Zombie

    Im thinking of getting Pearl onyx chicks tomorrow. What are you thoughts on the breed? What do you know about them, can they be sexed as chicks? I’ve had brown leghorns in the past and not fond of the temperament. I’m also thinking about Wheaton or Copper Marans? What breed would you get if...

    Need advice…Failure to thrive

    So in my brooder I have 11 chicks, 4 RIR, 4 specked Sussex, 10 days old. Last Friday I picked up 3 Barred rocks. When picking up my chicks from the farm store a worker was standing there picking out your chicks and putting them in boxes. I didn’t get to pick them out myself. When I got home, One...

Now it’s been 10 years, and we moved back to the farm country and I got chickens again! (2) How many...
