    Advice needed for this Newbie...Golden Comets not laying :/

    Advice needed for this Newbie...Golden Comets not laying :/

    Well as for their mash... it's their favorite (aside from yogurt) and they gobble it up in a hurry. I don't know the protein content... I feel like I asked once and they told be either 20 or 22 %? Does that sound right?? lol Two of the five of them seem to have fully developed wattles and combs...

    Fly control... any birds eat flies

    We use an almost emptied wine bottle! The flies love the sweetness but can't usually get back out and eventually drown. It's also a fun excuse to have a few drinks lol

    Injured chicks!

    All seems well with all of them, even Myrtle! I had to spin feed her some homemade tonic and Greek yogurt and some extra snuggling... but woke up to her eating and drinking on her own again :) I'm really quite amazed at how resilient they are! Yes,my daughter was quite upset at first but she's...

    Injured chicks!

    Nugget... the one who was in severe shock, has finally perked up. The rest: Lucy, Ethel, Myrtle, and Gertrude all seem okay but I'm worried about infection still. Lucy and Gertrude seem to have the worst of the wounds. Bald and bloody spots on their back and wings... so sad... It's still too...

    Injured chicks!

    My little girl accidentally opened the garage and our dog got in there with our six baby chicks... My husband found the massacre! One of the six was DOA. Most of the others have injuries, some bleeding... everyone was soaked from the toppled water dish. We brought the remaining in the house...
