    Bedding sand vs all purpose sand

    Im not sure what they mean by bedding sand because I've realized there's alot of different names for sands even though thy r the same kind (I've been doing alot of research on sand for coops as well) but if its a fine sand then no you would not want to use it. They say not to use fine sand...

    Is this normal for chicks when feathering out?

    I'm a fist time chicken owner and this is one of daughters silkies. Idk if this is just how silkies look as they are growing or if something is wrong. None of the other breeds of chicks have this around the feathers on their beaks

    Anyone have an idea on Big Mama? I'm confused!

    Thank u. Im very new to this. These are our first chickens. But they are the most entertaining animals I've ever had! Maybe it's just the age difference then that she is the exact color as the boys? She will b 10 wks old tomorrow and they will b 5 wks old.

My children named her Big Mama but I look at the coloring and legs and she seems to match the cockerel not the pullets. Is it because...

    My 7 wk old Barred rock Big Mama sitting on 10 baby chicks

    Blooie thanks that makes me feel a lil better. Ive been kind of worried about having such a mixed flock and if as they get older that will factor in as to how well they get along.

    How are Brahmas? Im still learning lots and eventually (as soon as i can talk my hubby into turning the shed into a bigger chicken coop) i would like to get more chickens. I just dont know if you should mix so many different breeds together in flock or if it matters.
