I would enclose the sinks to make those the nestboxes, if they are big enough. Our first chicken coop was an old playhouse. Nothing near as fancy as that one!
Now, I am no chicken sexer, but that doesn't really look like a boy from this angle.( That white one on the far right has a manly look about her though) I have seen chicks make the motion you mentioned without being boys. It was kinda like a neck stretching. Right now, it is hard to tell. Very...
Hey, Ryan, I have been to the bay area 3 times! I like it there.
We have 3 australorps. They are the broodiest bunch. We used to have bantam cochins. They were full of personality and cute as a button. (Not as cute as me, of course, but cute)
Hiya Cal! That's a cool looking little coop you have in your picture! You certainly will find they will occupy your free time. There's nothing like sitting and watching the chickens antics. Of course, ducks are cuter and smarter. Would love to see a picture of your flock. Sounds like you have...
I would have to agree with Veer. The leg color, shape and what looks like the begining of a muff suggests this could be an Easter Egger.
Here is mine at about the same age ( The funny colored one in the front)
I know it has been a very long time (and hope I don't get Miss Bizzy in trouble for posting on a dead thread) but we wanted to update, in case anyone who read this is still out there.
We just recently lost the last of " The Ladies" . She was the lightest Golden Girl, our favorite. She was ill...
Wow, I think they should use your post on the main page. You have captured what BYC is. A great knowledgable community of friends, with tons and tons and TONS of information, and tons of good people, and even a stuffed duck. (An extremely CUTE stuffed duck).
When I think of Florida, I think...
Hekkooooooo!! I am Beaker. I'm a duck. A stuffed duck! It's okay to talk with me, though. Noone will think you are crazy.
Welcome!! Sounds like you have a pretty little flock there, except for the molting part. We have 1 RIR/Golden Comet mix, and some Buff orps, black austrolorps, a gold...
Hiya Everyone! Who has missed me?
I have been doing very well keeping out of trouble. Stop snickering! I can be good if I need to.
I was telling the crabbies a bedtime story. It wasn't bedtime, but it was dinner time.
I don't think the crabby liked the story.
We tried telling people we were no longer living, or that we had no money whatsoever. Didn't work. The newspaper people that called every day, we finally said "I would LOVE to subscribe to the newspaper. This is AWESOME. When did you start printing in Braille?" They never called again.
The...
And Look who I met!! TIGGER!!!!!!!!!!!
Tigger was sooooo SILLY! He balanced me on his nose.
And then he set a spoon on the edge of the table, and put me on the end of the spoon. Then he booped the edge of the spoon hanging off the table with his nose and I went FLYING! I...
