    I second the vote for Ideal hatchery. It seems affordable to me and I've never lost 1 in shipment or for health reasons. I only buy from Ideal.

    We also do non gmo/organic. It is expensive! Thankfully we supplement with lots of greens. (We have a hookup with the local health food stores)

    I feel like I always have more broody hens than laying hens.:barnie Muscovies have to take the cake! If anyone wants to hatch eggs with a broody I highly recommend muscovies.

    My favorite egg layers that do well here are probably austrolorps. But that's partly because they're very friendly. Almost all my backyard girls are austrolorps.

    Bantam Cochins are my favorite roosters! I hope you find homes for them all. We're in town now so no roosters for us :(

    Have you exposed your old birds to the new ones? I'm so sorry you bought sick birds. I would be pretty upset. There are very few people I would trust to buy birds from because of reasons like this. I wish you lots of luck in dealing with everything.

    I googled this and found something saying possibly e-coli. I know nothing about that and am not saying she has it, but maybe look up the symptoms on BYC. Good luck.

    Honestly I wouldn't stress it. I have 5 week olds outside with no mama and they're fine. But I'm not known for pampering chicks. I'd just watch them. Good luck.

    Yikes. No idea what it could have been but that's maybe worse than finding a live one! I live in town on a 1/3 acre really close to OU in Norman and I've seen fox poop in the creek (1 house down) plus I know we have nesting owls. Those are the only 2 in town things I can think of that might take...

    Wow that's a big possum. We just caught one that made off with a chick the night before. I think our possum was maybe half that size! My kids were really hoping it would play dead. :rolleyes: So far, after a year and half back in town the only predators we've dealt with are possums. 2 total...
