Oh man, I was wrong all over the place, lol

Another newbie here; I just want to guess and then see if I'm right when somebody who knows what they're talking about weighs in. My guesses are; EE and black australorp.

Amazing! I've only ever seen the skinny little ones that squeeze through fence bars and steal dog food, or the occasional unfortunate cat. I guess that's what we get for trying to build homes so close to their homes.

So clever! I love it!

Holy Moley! That's the biggest coyote I've ever seen. Are you sure it's not a little wolf? Ha! Around here the coyotes are not nearly so statuesque - they're smaller and more sneaky looking (if that's a thing, lol).

Same here. No updates since last night.

What we did is we took our dogs near the brooder (where the chicks were visible, but safe) and let the dogs look. Anytime they got too interested they got a firm "no" (which in our case is a bark, lol, we bark at our dogs when they do something naughty). When they ignored the birds they got...

Ordered 25. Got 27. All are alive and peeping. My only issue with them is I ordered all females, and my "free rare breed chick" is (I'm pretty sure) a male, lol. So not really an issue, I'm just going to be sad to see him go. He's beautiful.

SAHM here. During the holidays I pick up some seasonal evening work so I can have a break. Ha!

Wow! That's interesting. I never thought about giving suet, but if we give it to wild birds in the winter, I can't imagine my chickens wouldn't appreciate some, too. And fish sounds like it should be healthy for them. Loads of omega3s and whatnot. It's nice to know the hens will have snack...

Oh my word, those things are from my childhood. They would just swarm all over the sidewalk. Sometimes two would be stuck together, butt to butt (I assume mating), walking around. When I lived near a dairy (literally across a small field - we could hear the cows mooing every time they moved...

I would fire him, too. Just from an employee standpoint, if I made a mistake that caused me to miss the first day, and if my boss gave me a second chance, I would work my butt off to prove that I was worth that second chance. Even with a family member in the hospital I would find a way to...

Thanks for the advice about the pictures! I just posted some, and hopefully I'll get a buyer soon.

Yay! I'm from SoCal too! Howdy neighbor!

I'm in Chino, so in SB County, but super close to LA County and the OC. Time to go take some chickie pics.

Pictures! No, but I will now! thank you

Thanks! I haven't had much luck from Craigslist, so it's nice to know there are alternatives!

I'm looking to sell 18 EE chicks in the IE/LA/OC area- anyone have any tips or advice on how to sell them?

Potential chicken owners should check their city’s zoning laws for livestock, specifically chickens. This information can be found on city planning department web sites or by calling the zoning department. (Laws vary by municipality but many cities in Los Angeles County allow residents to keep a...
