    Love my new flock

    I love that I can let them free range. Got these ones trained already that when I step out the door in the evening they follow me up to the coop to go to bed. Hubby says he has one of the little buffs inlove with him. LOL

    Love my new flock

    No I ordered all hens. I ordered 38 peeps ended up with 39 they throwed in a packing peanut. They garantee 90% would be the sex you want. So I did end up with one for that so they are giving me store credit for the 4th rooster. Not happy about it and may help my decision as to whether I...

    Hen or Rooster

    I have never had problems ordering hens. Well this time we were trying to help a fellow worker out by ordering his wife 6 hens with ours so she could get a break on the price. Meyer's is only about 3 hrs from us so we decided what the heck we will drive out and get them ourselves instead of...

    Hen or Rooster

    I would have guaranteed all my Rocks were hens. But someone got me questioning them. What is your opinion. Is this a hen or rooster. I'm still saying hen. I have a Buff rooster and a Rhode Island Red and they are guaranteed roosters.

    Dug out the ole incubator

    Been a couple years since we've incubated eggs but it was so much fun and I thought how much more fun to hatch eggs from my chickens. Last time I got from someone else. We thought we had taken care of all the roosters a couple years ago but seems one escaped so we hopefully have fertilized...

    Cryoptococcal meningitis Does anyone know anything about this?

    There is a gentleman in the town where my husband works that has contracted Cryoptococcal meningitis this. He worked at a hardware store and from what I understand did a lot of cleaning of bird droppings, mostly pigeon droppings. Our concern is this something that can be contracted from...

    Chickens and Fleas

    Its coming that time of year that fleas and ticks become a problem with cats and dogs. I was wondering if fleas and ticks can be a problem for Chickens also? And if so what do you treat chickens with for them?

    Another egg question

    I'm sure this has been answered a thousand times. I thought when you found blood in an egg it was considered fertilized. I had an egg which I think was probably was the hens 1st or 2 nd to lay since it was misshaped and the shell wasn't perfectly smooth. I've been getting a lot of little...

    Question about eggs

    That would certainly explain it. My hens are out constantly. They get plenty of excersize. Only time I've kept them in this winter so far is when we had a week of temps in the teens.
