    lost 14 of 15 peachicks...can anyone help?

    Thanks for infi. My pea chicks cannot get through the fence and they have an indoor coop. I think the medicine chest idea and worming is the best bet for now, better a little late than never.

    lost 14 of 15 peachicks...can anyone help?

    This has happened to us the last two years! We ended up with only one chick making it to adulthood both years. Our hen has just started laying and we will try worming them regularly starting before hatching. Not sure what else to try. My husband was convinced that the adults were somehow...

    Chicken Tractor

    That is a good idea! I made a milk stand for my goats with pvc pipe which worked pretty good except my ornery nanny broke one of the pipes by pulling & charging forward trying to get out. :(

    Chicken Tractor

    We just built 2, 8' x 4' A frame tractors for 10 chicks each. Everything but the wire was repurposed materials & took two of us about 5 hours to build with no real plans. The wheels & handle have to be added yet & will stain or oil the wood.

    Questions about Pea Fowl

    I have had my peacock & hen housed with 5 guineas since last fall & all was well...untill about 3 weeks ago. Gineas like to see themselves in a mirror, I waited for fair weather then installed a large mirror from the thrift store in the outdoor run, the peacock was injuring himself in attacking...

    Free "rare" mystery chick? UPDATE: New Pictures!

    I think it's 'Chickens for Backyards' that offers a mystery chick but you have to order & pay for it. I guess it's just buying a chick that is their choice.

    Sad day

    It does seem rediculous to allow noisy dogs but not roosters. Many years ago I lived in the center of a small town and had chickens complete with roosters & our neighbors loved hearing them! Said it made them feel more rural. We live outside of town now in a semi-agricultural area where all of...

    Hi from south Michigan

    I just joined yesterday & am having a lot of fun reading & commenting in the forums, wish I had more time! I have a small flock of various breed chickens that are 2 & 3 years old. We're getting about 10 new chicks in April. We also have 5 guineas and a pair of India Blue pea fowl and 3 pygmy...

    Free "rare" mystery chick? UPDATE: New Pictures!

    I'm curious, when you lose a few in the shipment and they send replacements, do they still have to have 25 in the shipment? They claim to need 25 in order to keep them warm so I always wondered what they did in a "replacement" scenario of less than that.

    Free "rare" mystery chick? UPDATE: New Pictures!

    I and two friends went together on 25 chicks this year from McM. We all ordered females of several breeds because we have roosters already, kinda sounds like we'll be getting a mystery rooster! I'm saving the catalog that has pictures of the chicks hoping it will help us figure out which is which!

    Actually, I think you can get skunk stink in a bottle. I believe something like that is sold for deer hunters to mask their human scent. That would be funny & probably effective!
