Hi,
Thanks for the info, the pens are next to each other, and i do let them out all togeather but they keep in there groups. Fingers cossed that they get on.
Once again thank you.
Can i move my two 14 week old chicks in with my two bantams, and if yes how do i keep the growers pellets and layers pellets seperate? will it matter if they eat layers? At the moment they are still with mum but would like to put them all togeather ready for winter.
Hi, can anybody help?
One of my chickens seems to be egg bound (i think). She seems to be straining, looks very unwell, and not interested in anything, her back keeps going up and down. What do you think?
Just like to thank every one for there help, i have two lovley chicks, and nearly a third, but egg did not hatch completely and mother hen left the egss to look after chicks. Have removed all other eggs. in hind sight should have had an incubator ready, may be next time.
Hi,
Please help, broody has hatched 2 chicks on Thursday, seems to be realy good mum, but i am worried i am not giving her enough food. I have only put in chick crumb, can i put in mixed corn, and will it hurt the chicks if they feed on it?, or is there something more i can give her?
Great news,
I have seen one chick, but have also seen three eggs, do not no if there is any movement in them. I am sure the chick hatched 20th, :)should i remove the other eggs?
Hi please help,
