One of my Buff Orpingtons is getting the dirty behind too and I see that that may be normal. I washed her off but her vent (?) keeps pulsing like she's constantly trying to poo. I just turned them out to break down the garden and I thought maybe she irritated by too much food. Thoughts?

Ha, sorry, I didn't look at the date! Those chicks are now almost 7 months old and giving me yummy eggs!:D

When mine were chicks one did that and I started putting apple cider vinegar in their water and he, as it turned out, was fine in a couple days.

My girls are starting to lay!! I have 4 eggs so far. One Sunday and 3 this morning! My question is: if I am gathering eggs for consumption, should I take them as soon as I know they're there?

How old are yours Tom?

Ya I did the spaghetti too one day! That was something... Is it ok to give them something every day? Sometimes I give them a little steel cut oats or the green ends of my strawberries or some grass.

So my chicks are three weeks old tomorrow and they seem to always be hungry! Or is it just normal for them to swarm me when I bring treats? All I have to do is open the door and they think I am bringing them something :D Whatever I give them, it is a real show to watch them chase each other and...

I bought a big bag too because I was going to do mealworms but the climate isn't right here in Colorado from what I hear so....what can I do with it?? Any suggestions?
