    post your chicken coop pictures here!

    Thank you Sylvester017. I wanted to reuse as much as I could but still keep it "pretty" as I work from home doing family day care. Its amazing what a splash of paint can do :) My silkies are still young but I wanted it to be a comfortable home for them.

    Silkie Cross Thread!! PICS!!

    Oh I hope so, thank you 388chick. I'm very attached to them and would hate to say goodbye to either of them :( They really are backyard chickens and I doubt my neighbours would be happy with cockadoodle doodling all day long :( I'm not sure to be honest. I picked them out of a group of around...

    Australia - Six states..and that funny little island.

    I was told they were silkie cross bantam australorp. Im not sure though, I'm not even sure what sex they are yet. They do have 5 toes, black skin and feathers on their feet, but their wing feathers are mostly normal. I'm very attached to them regardless, felt terrible putting them outside to...

    I haven't used sand before, was worried they might try to take a sand bath in it. How do you find it? There is basically no odor with this stuff, although I only have two chickens.

    Australia - Six states..and that funny little island.

    Your welcome. I wondered how other people managed their roosts and poop boards, so I checked out everyone elses coops before building mine. BYC is the best, I have learnt so much here. Here is their website if anyone is interested :) http://www.tuffrock.net/index.html

    I'm from that funny little island called Tassie :) I just wanted to say hi and let others know about a product I found named Stable Plus. Its basically the same as the Sweet PDZ I have heard so much about. After searching everywhere I found it at Horseland. $41.95 for a 15 kg bag but its so...

    Silkie Cross Thread!! PICS!!

    This is Foghorn and Leghorn. They were 3 weeks old in these photos. I have no clue what sex they are yet. I was told they are Silkie bantams crossed with Australorp. Anyone else have any clue what they might be? Grey one is larger than the black, has more of a poofy mohawk and seems more outgoing.

    Duck feeling Hot!

    I found this thread while searching with the same concern. Tonight is the first time I have noticed how hot my Daisy's bill is. She is a 6 week old Pekin. No other symptoms, eating well and normal behaviour. I googled but couldn't find anything.

    Pekin Duck Club!

    I think it might be a male and female. I got them from a friend who has a mini farm when they were a day old, both their bills were orange at that time but a few days later one started to get lighter. I've named them Daisy and Donald anyway so I may need to change their names when they get bigger :)
