    @pipdzipdnreadytogo Thank you! That makes me feel so much better. It was bad they have lost most of their combs I look at them and can't believe how bad they look. The leghorns combs are fine and theirs are big too!

    @Mother2Hens I really love them too. I have a pair, had a trio we lost one of the hens. This has been a year of learning. Most have done really well. But we have lost a few. I think I like chickens with less comb like orphingtons and cochins, even the bielfelders, because they are cold hardy. We...

    No it zipped fast. I was surprised. Although I had to help both of the last two bantam orphingtons hatch I think the changes in temps and humidity throw things off.

    It's a grey call. They are so friendly. I have my pair in with a pair of bantam Phoenix chickens and that rooster is supper confrontational with all other chickens but the duck. I am getting ready to set some more. I'm excited.

    I grew up in the house my dad grew up in. It was a big old farm house built in the late 1800's or very early 1900's. Or maybe it seemed big to me:) It had a dirt floor basement, a gigantic cast iron wood burning furnace and all the rooms were big. It had an attached wood shed next to the summer...

    Would an old basketball hoop mounted on a post work? Finished reading the thread... I think the hoop may be small to fit the hay into.

    That is actually pretty significant, I know that pesticides at least some of them stay in your body and increase in amount. While some will leave the body a partial amount becomes concentrated and is absorbed into our tissue and organs. I have taken a couple environmental sociology classes. It...
