    Need some help! New chick just hatched. Will she be OK with the rooster?

    Our bantam hen Elkie went broody on the same day that we hatched 7 chicks in our home made incubator. Since she had just survived a hawk attack we thought it would be safe for her to stay in the nest box for awhile. She was sitting on 2 of the eggs from our White Plymouth Rock hens. In the batch...

    April 1 chicks @ 17weeks UPDATED 7/31 - PIC HEAVY.

    We hatched 7 eggs on April 1 2012. It was our first attempt using our own eggs and my home made incubator. The eggs had been stored in the fridge and are from two young pullets just under a year old and one bantam pullet only 8 months old. Our EE rooster is also just under a year.

    Massive egg from our White Plymouth Rock

    This egg was laid today by one of our two White Plymouth Rock hens. It is truly HUGE! The egg on the left is a Jumbo egg in a carton for Jumbo eggs. The lid won't even close because of the massive egg on the right. It feels like a hand grenade when you pick it up. Left to right - Massive...

    Louie the roo. PIC HEAVY.

    This is Louie, he was a surprise roo in a batch of EEs, Barred Rocks and Cinnamon Queens. He's loud and proud at 5 months old. We just introduced 4 two month old chicks to him and he's "taken them under his wing". He always comes when you call him and if you aren't paying attention he just may...

    Evolution of a mystery chick. PIC HEAVY!

    This little girl is the subject of another thread A little mystery chick with feathered legs. What could she be? but just thought all the photos in the same place would be easier to look at. She's sweet, bold and little as can be. I wish I had six more just like her...

    A little mystery chick with feathered legs. What could she be?

    We got this little mystery chick from a local breeder when we picked up some EE chicks. I will try and get some better photos of her, she's half the size of the EE chicks that are about the same age. (approx. 2 weeks?)
