Hey Everyone. Its been awhile. Well on March 23rd I let one of my bantam hens set on 3 eggs, I put the date on them and just let her and them be. I hadn't really been keeping track of how long ago that was and to be honest I didn't really think it would work, so I hadn't really made a plan...
I've posted this before but now have a bit of new information. As you can see at the bottom the breeds that I have. My two female buff cochins and my red stars are 33 weeks today the rest of the bunch is 23 weeks old. I was getting eggs everyday from my red stars and cochins until mid to late...
My chickens haven't laid since Sept 02. We ran out of food and so they we fed them cat food and fruits and veggies from the garden for about a week. Which we felt was about the same as if they were free range. But during that time they laid fewer and fewer eggs until the 2nd, we're used to...
I swear, I'm going to come undone on my coworker, we share and office, and she's overbearing, know it all...and stupid. She says she knows enough to be dangerous...fact of the matter is, she knows enough to look good for the boss, and is going to end up screwing up some serious stuff within the...
Hello All, I made the mistake of getting straight run and small quantities of each breeds. In a perfect world all my roos would get along. However, they are all starting to get a bit tempermental. So its time they leave this flock, and go on "move on down the road"
I'm hoping to get some...
Last go round I bought 3 each of several different kinds of breeds, and thought I'd save a little money going straight run. BIG mistake. now I have ten roosters to deal with, they're still only 9 weeks old but its getting obvious. So naturally I need to replace them. And DH said ok But I'm...
We have a 9 wk old blue cochin that was bit by a snake three weeks ago...thankfully she was able to get away, unfortunatly her leg was hurt in the scuffle and now only uses one leg, she hops around fine, and will get up to eat and drink but as for day in day out she finds a soft spot of ground...
I now have 41 chickens, about 15 of them are 17 weeks old, before I got my babies, they all slept inside the hen house, but have always refused to roost, they stay on ground level, and won't settle for anything else, but at least they were INSIDE the hen house. my 7 week old chicks have been...

We're still working on...

Well My nephew got here earlier then expected this morning, and so for an hour I heard, call the post office, call the post office, so finally at 8:30 I called the post office. They said they had a few peeping boxes and would check to see if one of them had my name on them...Indeed it did. And...
Ok, I just realized something, and please everyone, don't hate me for this. I just new we had some starter feed for the chicks that are coming tomorrow, so when I went to the feed store the other day to get the finisher feed for the girls I already have I didn't even think about it. Side note...
Hey Guys, I'm a little new BYC and this might just be my first post, I can't remember. I've been sitting on this computer all morning looking up baby chick pictures. I have about 30 coming in on Monday and I'm not so patiently waiting until then. We ordered some from MM back in march...
