I just bought these week old chicks at Tractor Supply in Apache Junction, Az. They are very healthy looking chicks. I also got 6 White Leghorns and 6 Rhode Island Reds. Out of the 3 breeds the Andalusians are the shiest. Maybe that will change when they get used to us. I can't wait to see...
Thank you.
I thought that too. The Egyptian Fayoumis was a little lethargic at the feed store due to her being alone. I bought the 2 dyed chicks so they could keep each other warm. They were in a box with a lamp. Maybe the lamp wasn't warm enough? The inside of my house is pretty warm...

I just don't understand why she died! The chick in the above photo died this afternoon. I don't know what happened. She was so vital and goofy last night, hangin out with me and today she's gone. Just like that. All of them died in the same way. All 3 deceased chicks came from the same feed...

I hope she makes it. She is with me most of the time.

Can anyone help me identify this chick? Her wing feathers are coming in white. I lost her buddy earlier today. I don't know what happened to her/him. I have no idea if this is a rooster or a hen. I haven't mastered the art of chick sexing. Lol I really hate the fact that these chicks are...
Thank you everybody.
Yep, I do have alot of horses. Thankfully 2 of them are Miniatures.
Glad to see there are some fellow Arizonans here.

Hi, I live in Queen Creek, Az on a small Ranchette in which I have 9 horses, 3 dogs and 8 chickens. I love chickens! The ones that I have are all under 4 mos. My recent additions are 2 Easter colored chicks that I bought just to keep my ill Egyptian Fayoumis warm. The Egyptian was a feed...
