    I have a bunch of empty egg cartons if anyone wants them. When we started having chickens a bunch of our friends started giving us the cartons, but we don't have enough chickens to use these any time soon. SOOOO... if you want them they are yours. I'm in Union, but could meet you somewhere...

    Any idea where I can get riding lessons for a 6-yo boy in the West Gardiner area? He is interested in Western style, especially pole bending, LoL. Try Jackie at Friendship stables in Augusta. They do a lot of lessons up there, and if she can't do that I'm sure she'll know someone that does.

    Hen not laying, not eating much, moving slowly

    well, I've looked through the poop and don't see anything moving. I've cleaned out the coop. I went to the feed store around the corner to look at wormers, but I wasn't sure what to get. They had a bunch of water conditioners that added vitamins and stuff, but the only wormer they had was...

    Hen not laying, not eating much, moving slowly

    I checked for mites and lice and didn't see them. She seemed to get a bit better earlier this week, but she continues not to lay. She eating and drinking, but her appetite is still not normal. She doesn't have any congestion. Her comb seems a little pale to me, and her poo is runny. None of...

    Hen not laying, not eating much, moving slowly

    I have a red-laced Wynadotte that is just not herself. She stopped laying a few days ago. She was always the first out of the coop and the first to run up to you when you stepped out the door. Over the couple days I noticed that she is hanging back. She eats fresh food I put out, but isn't...

    I'm in the same boat. I have this mystery bantam rooster that has become aggressive towards my toddler. I don't know that I care what happens to him. He's a gorgeous bird- barred with feathered feet, but definitely not a cochin. I wouldn't mind being rid of my black cochin bantam rooster...

    Is my daughter's chicken a "Striper" or "Stripette"?

    I guess looking at the pics of stripey and comparing the pic of my roo, it does look like he might be a roo. I really don't want him to be... we are quite attached to him.

    Is my daughter's chicken a "Striper" or "Stripette"?

    Thanks for the info. The barred cochin came from the school where my husband works. The kids got the chicks at the beginning of May, so that's why I think he's around 12 weeks old. We got the black ones near the end of June when they were about two or three weeks old. We got the frizzles at...

    Is my daughter's chicken a "Striper" or "Stripette"?

    We think this guy is a barred bantam cochin between 12 and 14 weeks old. We call it "Stripey." Not sure of the sex. We aren't sure of the sex of the black cochins either, but I don't have as many good pictures of them because they don't hold still for anything. Someone has started crowing...

    What kind of frizzles are these?

    I acquired this pair about three weeks ago. The person that gave to me wasn't sure on the age. No eggs or crowing yet. They are small bantam frizzles. I'm wondering what kind of frizzles they are. The roo is very gentle and does whatever his lady wants. She bosses my three others around too...
