Hi, I'm in Joshua Texas. South of Fort Worth. How amazing to see so many neighbors here!
I have a 17 week Maran Roo that needs a new home. For free!! He has the sweetest temperment, very friendly, quiet crow.
So bummed and surprised. She/he looks so much different that the other roos I have banished from my yard.
Looking for a local source of female chicks in the south Fort Worth area...
Darn! It is my own fault for ending up with 6 roos. I just get day old chicks from friends and craigslist. With these odds, my husband says I shouldn't go to Vegas.
Next purchase will be from a hatchery, but I only want a few hens...
Hi, this morning my cute little girl crowed :/ She is the 6 chick I have gotten from a variety of places. All have been roos. I was certain she wasn't. But now I'm not so sure. She is 16 weeks old.
Can you look at her and tell me what you think?
Her neck feathers are nice and round...
After ready this thread and a few others on ants, I decided on Sevin dust. But after ready the label I'm not so sure. It says it is dangerous to honeybees! So I got some ants traps instead. The ants have totally taken over my whole yards. My chickens hate them.
My cat left a half eaten mouse just outside the coop. My girls thought they died and gone to heaven. I'm a little grossed out but grateful that I don't have to clean up.
Hi
We got our first chickens this spring, bantam old english, and we love them. As it turns out they are all roosters :(. We aren't technically allowed to have chickens at all, I certainly can't have roosters.
Nevermind, I called our local feed store and they will take them back. Yay...
