Thanks :)

LOL, I have seen that... Lost my lunch! Is there anything else I should do for my broody hen?

no answers

My egg layer has become broody sitting in the nesting box all day and night for the last couple of days unless I kick her out. I have taken away the nesting box to break the broodiness and I assume the runny poos are normal for broody hens and will clear up... Anything else I should be doing?

ah fair enough :) thanks

Done the er... Cone (is that the thing on thier head?) Fade in colour with age? Excuse the newbie questions.

Thanks. Just trying to figure out how old my bantam Cochin is. Re purring: she seemed to be really contented and enjoying herself. Maybe it just like a cat...

One a day for one chook. She's a good girl.

1: at what age do chooks stop laying? 2: do chooks purr like cats? One of mine was making weird purring noises while having a dust bath.

Thanks peeps :)

arent they! penny is a bantam coachin who we found wondering the streets (specifically the front yard), and Amy is a standard coachin cross who we bought for company. they are pets more than anything but Amy produces eggs so thats a bonus :D Penyy is very friendly and doesnt mind being picked...

introducing my 2 very cute chooks..... amy! and penny!

so about a 1/4 cup a day each... good, i am on track. they also get treats but not daily. one is post egg production (i think) the other just into egg production. scratch? one of my loves a scratch on the neck or back... the other not so much :p (whats scratch)

I have 1 bantam Cochin and a standard Cochin and I realise now I have no idea how much to feed them per day! Any sugestions?

isnt the first egg so special!!!! I got my first 2 days ago... i've had another 2 since :D

:D we are chuffed. wonder if we'll get another today? do they lay at a particular time of day?

thanks. its awesome for a newbie like me!

My girl Amy played an egg today! It's our first!

it seems to me like 90% of the world is into photoragphy in one form or another these days... and so i join the ranks. I dont have any photos of my chooks yet but heres some photos i have taken. I of course have more on my website www.natures-gift.net I shoot anything but people! :p

thanks for the warm welcome everyone! :D
