Ok that is helpful thanks. Roughly how many weeks till they are fully feathered??? They are growing so fast but still seem pretty happy with their mum in mini coop.

I have 8 two week old chicks who are currently living in a special enclosure in our shed. Protected from elements and the other chooks while they grow. Mother hen is a light sussex so quite large and i can seem them outgrowing their enclosure in the not too distant future. I want to know how old...

We have seven out of ten hatched so far. Super excited. Amazing stuff.

She eventually got back on after about 4-5 hours. It was pretty warm so hoping we are lucky. Will be disappointed if nothing hatches. Time will tell in the next few days.

Our eggs are due to hatch in about 2 days... My broody sussex is off the nest this morning and has been for about 2-3 hours. I am worried this will affect the eggs. How long can she be off the eggs before they die. It is about 27 degrees celcius. What can i do to get her back on the nest without...

Question, i have about 3 days before our eggs are due to hatch. I have decided for the safety of the chicks i will seperate broody hen from the other chooks. What i want to know is when should i do this??? I have a nice little hutch set up that is secure and safe for the hen and the little ones...

Awesome, glad they are both pullets. Thank you for your information. One more thing when should they begin to lay? It is still winter here in Australia will that make a difference? I love my chooks, best pets ever.:)

Not sure about parentage but both chicks were hatched out if same batch at my daughter's kindergarten.

Can someone out there please tell me if this bird is a light sussex??? The comb is so small i was not sure if it could possibly be a columbian wyandotte? Her sister is black and speckled what is she??? They are about 16 wks old. I assume they are both girls as comb's are still so small given...

Ok, thanks for your information.

Do all Brahmas have feathers on their legs and feet? Mine don't have that. Not sure about combs i will have to google that. What about Columbian Wyandots then instead of Sussex??? Could that be a possibility??

My daughter had some chicks hatched at her local kindy. We took two home and have raised them from tiny chicks. They are now about 12 weeks old and i still don't even know what sex they are. I believe the white one (Willow) is a Sussex but not sure about (Edwina) the Black speckled one. Have a...

That's awesome. Big HP fan too :)
