Quote: You may have already gotten an answer to your question, but yes, I have heard that sometimes feathers won't grow back until a molt.

Quote: Yes, I know of people who use denim material for saddles. But, you may want to line the underside with a softer material as well.

Quote: Can you hang this feeder? Did you get the lid too and would you recommend getting the lid? I already have a galvanized metal feeder, but they do bill the feed all over the ground. Sorry, I haven't been on here in a while. Well, I'm not sure if you can hang or not, but It seems that...

I made one very similar last year(even got the 5 gallon bucket for free at at my store's deli). My only complaint is that my chickens were able to waste a lot of feed by scratching and billing it out. I ended up spending the money on a feeder and I absolutely love it. They hardly waste at...

Quote: That recipe looks really good, I actually printed it off to try.

Yeah, my chickens love pumpkin, although I don't give them the seeds.

This is my six month old EE hen from Ideal, and her chick she hatched yesterday. The chick is half EE/ half SL Cochin. The egg was laid by one of my older EE hens. She is the third broody so far out of my batch from Ideal, and she is the only EE of mine that has ever gone broody. I have to...

I'm not sure what you mean by sniffles, but chickens shouldn't have any kind of respiratory problems, they don't get colds etc.. like we do. You might want to look into that.

Quote: You know, I agree, she looks more like a red sex link. RIR don't have any white.

I looks like a hen to me. One that is already laying or just about to.

Quote: MPC doesn't use chick packing peanuts, they only give you what you order.

Quote: Don't worry, mine came around eventually, I can get away with much more now

Sorry, but those marans all look like roos except the one one in the front, going off of comb and wattle size and color.

I'm not sure about the injuries. But I was just gonna say it looks like a hen to me too.

Yes, switch to layer feed now. It's always a good idea to offer free choice oyster shell calcium, they will eat as much of it as they need.

Quote: I think both yolks get fertilized, it is just uncommon for both to survive to hatching. From what I've read, most die before they reach hatch date.

I'm not sure, but that sounds really good. I'm curious to see what people suggest.

Thanks guys, it just takes awhile to look at all the different hatcheries.

Does anyone know if any hatcheries are still selling turkeys. And do any of the hatcheries have less than a 20 or more minimum. Thanks
