    Black or Blue Australorp?

    Thanks. Once I got them home I was noticing they were awful light. I didn't realize TSC would have blues. I am excited to have them. I would have been excited to have blacks. I now kinda hope one is a roo and one a pullet so they can breed. But either way I am happy.

    Black or Blue Australorp?

    I had a coop failure after 2 years and lost all 7 hens and my room so I had to go replenish my stock. Coop has been fixed and predator proofed so it will be ready when the new ones go out. I got my chicks from TSC and they had a bin marked "Australorps" straight run. So I got 2 to mix in with...

    Broody hen missing chicks

    This is my first time having a broody hen. She is a year and a half. She went broody and I tried to break her using the hanging cage techniques and kept taking eggs out of nest boxes. Neither worked so I got some fertilized eggs from a local guy. 20 -21 days later we had 3 chicks with 2 eggs...

    Mama Heating Pad in the Brooder (Picture Heavy) - UPDATE

    I got 14 chicks last week and had a tub a bit bigger. It was too small by the 4th day! Can you bend the wire frame down in the back? That would give the chicks a contact spot. I missed that the first time bent my frame, but was able to bend it in the back. Mine is a cave and some worry about...

Yesterday it was in the low 60s, Monday in the 50s and they spent a lot of...
