Ok am I a chicken idiot?
I have 9 young girls. 7 have been laying an egg a day for months Now suddenly I am lucky to get 3 a day. My Auracana was the first to stop..easy to tell because I am not getting my blue egg anymore . They are all eating normally, drinking normal, pooping normal, playing...
I am just curious how other people store and rotate their eggs.
Do you have special places in the fridge?
Do you have boxes marked with date? By day, week, month?
Please share how you make sure to use the oldest first!
I had to get rid of my Roo last week because they aren't legal where I am ...Suddenly tonight I noticed that my girls aren't sleeping in the coop tonight. Its dark and they are all hanging outside either on the ground or on the outside roosts....Is this normal? I just wondered if its because its...
Back in Feb I had 3 hens in the garage and 6 babies in the house with 2 incubators going. Then in March I had 3 hens in the garage, 6 older babies in the house and 8 fuzzy's in the house. All the babies are now in the garage with the hens ( in different pens of course) and the hens should be...
I live in the Spokane Valley in Washington State. Last night the city council decided that we have have our backyard chickens! 1 hen per 2000 sq ft, no roosters, chicken housing must be 25 ft from neighboring property, and chickens need to be housed in a manner that they can not escape their...
Alrighty..so I hatched out an egg from a New Hampshire hen that I picked up. And it has feathered feets. It is soo cute. My question is what could daddy be? Doesnt really matter to me because I love my mutts and have always wanted a feather foot chicken, just curious.
Thanks
Ok last time I had chicks I did it later in the spring, so when they were 2 months old they were able to MOVE OUT of my office. My query is : Can I move my over 1 months olds out to a nice pen in my garage with lights?
Or do I need to keep them inside longer?
I am really hoping I can move them...
I have been looking online for an answer but so far no solid answer that I trust.
I have a small coop with one door and 2 narrow windows on the top. My question is what is the best way to face the front door?
I live in the Pacific Northwest...so we get pretty cold/wet winters and hot/dry...
The markings on these 2 particularly interest me. (sorry for the fuzzy pic..cellphone)
and one more of my chipmonk
I will start with these 2 and see if I can get pics of a few of the others.
ANY IDEAS????
Thanks
I have a question for everyone...How long does it generally take your chicks to fluff up all the way?
Do you move them to a brooder before they are all fluffed?
Mine are taking over a day to fluff up..and then they arent even all the way until I move them to the brooder box...just curious if...
We are in our first lockdown in our home made incubator!! We candled all of them tonight and everyone is moving, veiny and mostly dark. A little worried about the air sack on a couple but set them air end up..
