I ordered 5 female Black Star chicks from a hatchery and I received 6 chicks. They are 1 week old. The 6th chick isnt a Black Star due to the yellow fluff. I suspected that it might be a Black Australorp chick but now I'm not sure due to the prevalent yellow fluff. I know Black Australorps are...

Two chicks were hatched by my broody 2 days ago. The first chick hatched without a beak and is smaller than the second chick that hatched. The second chick is normal. I made a gruel of chick starter feed mixed with lukewarm water and she has been lapping it up like a dog with her tongue...

I watched the whole series and thought it was pretty good....until last night at the very end of the last episode. I was expecting the Dome to come down or something else to happen. But instead it left me hanging as to what happened to all the people. GRRRR! It looks like another TV show or...

Happy Birthday and many more to come!

Gas prices jumped from $3.05 a gallon (regular) this morning to $3.27 a gallon this afternoon here where I live in Camden County Georgia...this is totally insane! The bad thing is that gas prices are going to go up higher resulting in skyrocketing grocery prices etc...anybody know when it'll...

I went to the feed store to buy some hay and feed this morning. Someone about a week ago, had brought in about 50 or so beautiful looking Red and Black Sex Link hens as well as a few Black Australorp hens, all about 10 months to a year old to be sold. They all appeared to be very healthy, in a...

Now they're saying $5 for a gallon of gas...glad I got motorcycles, my truck will be my gas station. Do you remember when they used any excuse to raise gas prices? Then we had the gulf oil rig explosion and oil leak...they didnt raise gas prices due to the economy...or so it was said on the...

Thank You! Whomever you are....you are very kind and thoughtful!

I usually order 3-6 day old chicks from Meyer Hatchery or MPC (I know they order for Meyer.) I called both places and they no longer sell Black Star chicks! They offered Red Stars, but I prefer Black Stars and have ordered them before directly from Meyer. The person I talked to was new and didnt...

Earlier this year in January I purchased Majic Jack to save money. I had to pay about $40 for startup, about $24 a year thereafter....a good deal, and eliminating long distance service with our local phone company. Majic Jack is easy to plug into the computer and simply follow the directions...

I've never had Light Brahmas before and I've been thinking about ordering 1 or 2 chicks next spring along with a couple of Black Stars. Are Brahmas feet and legs feathered, or one or the other? Does dirt and poop get stuck in their feathers? How are they as egg layers? What is their...

On the late news last night, some guy goes driving around in Gainesville, Florida randomly shooting people on the street...about 10 people are dead, then he shoots and kills himself. Total madness!

I am just curious if there's anyone here who has or knows a loved one with this autoimmune disease...specifically scleroderma. My wife has had it since late December 07... I'd like to share our experiences with you and as well as your experiences. Thanks.

I let my hens out every morning to free range just before sunrise. All but three are eager to get out in the yard. Every morning it's the same three hens "sleeping in." They'll emerge from their house about 30 minutes later and join the rest of the hens. All my hens are in excellent health. Does...
