    Which breed produces bronze colored eggs?

    Hi folks, I was looking for another breed to add to our flock here and read somewhere of one that lays a bronze colored egg. Now that I'm ready to get some, I can't find where I read that anywhere! Anyone know which breed I'm talking about? Thanks....

    Americauna Offspring Eggs

    Hi folks, I have a flock of around 350 Americaunas producing all varieties of colors of eggs - blue, olive, pink, etc. I'm looking to replenish the flock with about 25 hens every quarter and, since I have a few roosters in the group, thought I would just hatch my own instead of having to buy...

    Are these eggs still viable?

    Hi folks, We free range our chickens and don't normally attempt to hatch any new additions. About a week or so ago we discovered a nest next to our house with about 24 eggs in it (apparently some of the girls preferred that location to the 80 nest boxes we have ). And, there are more in...

    Reclaiming Crumble

    Our 5 - 6 weeks old chicks love their crumble that we give them in one of those chicken feeders with the two rows of oval holes on each side. But when I go out to refill it in the morning and evening, the bigger pieces are all gone and what looks like mostly crumble dust (like sand) is left -...

    And Then There Were Twelve

    You may have seen my posts yesterday about being concerned adding 6 more day old chicks to our brooder that already had 6 1 week olds wandering around in it. And that we'd gotten the call that the chicks were in and my truck was being serviced and I had a 4:30 boss's boss meeting AND that the...

    Adding Another Set of Chicks To The Clan - Issues?

    Hey all, We've got 6 GCs that are about a week old in the brooder. It's a large dog crate about 28" x 40" (see our page) and they seem very happy in there (no aggressive pecking at each other, etc). Our next set of 6 chicks (BOs) are due to arrive in a few days so the two sets will be about a...

    Hello From Coventry, CT

    Hi folks , We've been members of this site for a few weeks and posted a few times, but I just came across the introductions page, so I figured I'd do a formal "Hello!". My fiance Brenda and I bought a home, a "horse property" on 6 acres back in September. I work from home so I get to enjoy...

    All Chicks Not Created Equal??

    We're in Day 4 of watching our new chicks (Golden Comets) grow. We had ordered them from a feed store and our 6 were in with dozens of Comets that had just come in. On the first day, aside from some marking differences, they all pretty much looked alike. But now here on day 4, 2 of them have...

    Our First Ever Chicks Have Arrived!

    It seemed to take forever, but it was less than a month before the first of our chick order arrived! We picked up our six Golden Comets yesterday evening and set them up in their new home. We stayed around long enough to make sure they were all OK after the trip home and that they could find...
