    Extreme Heat

    I had some frozen grapes and bananas in the freezer so I gave the chickens some of those when it was really hot. I was still giving them the electrolyte chick mix in their water anyway so I am happy to hear that was a good idea. My chickens LOVE raisins, they are chicken cocaine. They love...

    I got my chicks from a variety of places after 5 of my first 6 died and I wanted a companion for my Pecky deSilkie Peeples. I am still waiting to find out if they are hens or roosters. I have two yards, one for my egg layers and one for my pets. I have found a family that wants the excess...

    the chicks and i had a scare

    Thank you! Designed and built it myself. I have art on the inside of the sliding doors too. Has anyone ever heard a chicken say they didn't like art? haha. It has two levels with two pens and one of them can be divided into two pens. There is storage for the food and a few garden tools. I...

    the chicks and i had a scare

    haha, your poor daughter, meal worm yogurt. I will have to try giving my chicks some yogurt. I caught some earthworms today and gave them to the chicks. They are so funny, the silkie was scared to touch them, but the little Americaunas gobbled them up. It was the same thing with the buffs and...

    the chicks and i had a scare

    haha, yes it IS windy in Vegas and apparently a chicken heaven. I will have to tell my sister, she lives there too. Her neighbors have chickens. My leghorns and golden buffs don't want to go in at night and it is necessary that they be inside at night because of foxes. I have a good fence, but...

    the chicks and i had a scare

    Wow, I LOVE plain yogurt with oatmeal and strawberries (blueberries and cranberries, too - eat it every morning), so my chickens are like me. haha I found an earthworm and gave it to my silkie and she/he was scared of it, the little 4 week old bandy roo came up and and flew away in a panic, then...

    No, I can't keep a bunch of roosters, :( I am still hoping most of them are hens, but I don't know they all act like roosters, I should know in a few weeks.

    I am glad none of the chicks were injured. What treats do you give your chicks? Is yogurt ok to give to chicks?

    My little Pecky

    My litttle silkie Pecky is growing up and trying to find his place with his more aggressive stepchicks. The other chicks I got to keep him company were the same age and they picked on him so I got 3 younger chicks to keep him company. Some of them were even aggressive to the little silkie, so I...

    what are chick behaviors/looks that would suggest it's a rooster?

    I sure hope so! ALL 8 of my chicks are play fighting and charging each other. I hoped a FEW of them to be hens :( I have one Silkie, one Americauna, one ?, one bandy, two leghorns, two Golden Buffs
