Has anyone ever hat a mama hen that pecks one of her chicks constantly? Her chick 4 chicks are a week old and in the chick pen. Yesterday she kept on pecking one of her chicks so much the baby would leave her. I took the baby and put it with 9 others I have in a brooder.

Hi there. I got 25 out of 32 eggs April 2nd. All Necked Necks. That was my first incubating ever. I was lucky I guess. Would like to know where to get different breed of eggs. I want some eggs of a breed of duck that has frizzly feathers. I don't know the name of them. Can anyone help me?

I haven't ordered my Silkies yet but already have a Roost made. It is about chest high with 2 by 4s cut in a couple of pieces. They start at about 6 inches off the ground and run up like a ladder. I hope they will get on it. How big do the Silkies get?
