    Setting up today 26 May 2012.... Anyone setting can join

    Short sad update, I lost all the eggies - our chicken runs (and most other animal corrals and property) flooded and the only casualties were the pre-chicks, two days pre- hatch, 6 made it to fully formed and feathered, 2 were duds - unfertilized. The hen was still sitting on a floating nest...

    She's an amazing little bird! I read that they can cover up to 15! I think that's a little much. She is definitely covering the 8 - though I am not sure where her feet are

    Don`t know if this counts but I put 8 mixed breed eggs under a broody silkie yesterday. She`s a good incubator. All were fathered by a golden laced polish and none are hers. Should be interesting if they all survive.

    Thanks! I wasn't 100% sure, since it's a cross. Well, not a bad thing, since he will have his own unrelated harem when the time comes.

    Mycoplasma gallisepticum infection

    The problem with simple quarantine for whatever length of time is if you don't put a sentinel into the quarantine from your own flock, you can't discover the silent carriers of disease in the new birds. Just because new birds didn't come down with anything doesn't mean your originals won't...

    What happened here?

    I guess no one wants to reply, but I think I finally figured it out after reading many other posts; and finally a drop in egg production, and still no mortality, and the rapid spread, and finally a wrinkled egg...it is infectious bronchitis.

    What happened here?

    Short flock history. Long post. Started with 30 chicks from a kindergarten project 8 + years ago. Free ranged, all got picked off one by one by foxes. Learned lesson, built run with top for hawk attacks. Decided to go with friend to bird sale in July(stupid sucker me) and came home with 8 two...

    Confused about grit

    The sand doesn't contain salt. The ocean does. Rinse the sand. I think I would get commercial grit though.

    25 years in Folsom Prison

    I have to say...Having chickens (or any animal) can help those demons stay down for a while...well...it works for me anyway. Enjoy the golden years, you earned them!

    Need help understanding town ordinance

    In my area it has to do with the residential or agricultural zoning of the property prior to a house ever being built. I would think you likely are simply are not zoned for anything other than residential. Therefore no livestock, no matter property size - you would have to be zoned...

    Should I move the Broody and batch on day 20?

    Well, after trying to rig a lamp in the hutch she was in...I managed to get the whole setup inside a tack shed, and a much safer lamp situation. It was forecast to be -12C last night. I picked up the whole nest box, with all contents and passengers, and moved into a large rubbermaid-type...

    Should I move the Broody and batch on day 20?

    It got below zero (celcius) with snow here (SK, Canada), of course, after an amazing warm winter - just as hatch day is approaching. The broody is in a windowed/wooden/uninsulated "hutch" by herself, no heat or lamps added. She is a silkie, an this is her (and mine) first attempt. I gave her...
