Gotcha ok. I can’t wait for the feathers to come in now! Prettiest chick we have yet.

That’s what I have been thinking. Should definitely be purebred though. It came from a hatchery

From a feed store, should be purebred. They get theirs from a hachery

So I got this chick yesterday, she(hopefully) was mixed in with some pulleys of a obvious different breed. Need some help trying to figure out what she could be.

We are thinking about taking chick from mom. Raising it that way because we have eggs thatwere laid later and have a week or so. If we take the chick she wont abandon the next anyhow right?

ok so i should definately but out starter then today and a low water dish. Thanks. Will they be ok in the coop will the other hens and rooster? I have a total of 16 chickens

I know how to raise chicks without a momma. But i have a hen that has successfully hatched an egg. What differs in caring for the chick. Will the hen get the food for the chick? I still need starter im sure. She also has about 6 more eggs under her. One or two will be hatching in the next day or...

Thanks everyone. They do get oyster shell. And it is a new hen. Only been laying a month or so

so what causes this. Looked like a shell started to form. But barely any calcium on it.

this is the enclosure they were in

I am going to try and post a picture sometime during the day. But might be this afternoon. I am located in middle ga. So racoon is very possible. My husband thought it might be a type of weasel

First i want to say that the enclosure i had my 12 week old chicks in a 4x4x4 box, wire bottom and top. Door is wood frame about 1foot wide with a fence front about 2foot. Between door and rest of enclosure is maybe an inch gap. If that. This morning i had a missing chick, one with its head...

Ok thanks i will try that. I am located in middle ga. Egg gets eaten during the day.

The coop/run is secure enough so that somehing like a cat or fox or hawk cannot get in but big enough small creatures can get in. With the boxes we do have lips to keep them from falling off. the eggs are too far away for them to have fallen down. Would new layers lay on the ground? I have a...

Every couple of days i have an eaten egg. Has a hole the size of a nickel to quarter. Nothing remain except a dried membrane sometimes. Sometimes it is on the ground and sometimes it is in the box. It has only ever been just one egg. Is it one of my chickens eating it or something else, and...
