Out of 12 chickens, I have 4 roosters! I found a home for one so I have 3 more who need new homes. I'm in Frederick County near Harpers Ferry, WV.

Interesting...I see this same poop from my hens too. I was actually browsing this forum to see if I could find some answers. I guess we'll have to wait and see what others think it could be. ~Tracy

Disclaimer: I'm new at this *and* I'm holding my whiney, just woke up, 3 y/o. So please be patient with me. I really want pretty chickens who are also nice. I have 3 RIR/RSL mix from SS and they are 2 weeks old today. I'd like 3-4 more babies and I"d love for them to be somewhat close in...

Quote: I'm glad you added that because one of them is doing that. It's a little freaky! Thanks for the reply on the temp. They're walking around and checking things out so I think they're ok. I have 4 human kids and I don't think I was this nervous when they were babies.

We just got our babies today...3 to start with 5 more coming. I can't get the temp warmer than 89/90 and don't have time to run out to get another heat lamp. Can I put a heating pad - on low, under a towel - under their brooder for tonight? Also, one them seem to be falling asleep while...
