I'm having the same problem, only after Ricky creates a bald spot, the other hens peck at the bare backs and have actually killed my silkie and have caused a huge gash in my Andalusian. Will the saddles keep the hens from picking too? Will they all peck at the saddles? Sorry, but I was...

yeah, it was great. I didnt get any today though. Maybe it was just a fluke. I'm still very proud of them.

I love them!!!!!!!!!

AHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I found two eggs in my coop this morning. 1 month early. They are so tiny and I wish I knew who layed them. But I love them and my ladies for giving them to me!

So, my sweet Casi has been in the house since she was sent to me at just a few days old. All her sisters moved outside when they were 3 weeks, but she had to stay in because of an accident. My dog almost bit her head off, but didn't, Praise the Lord. We didn't think she would make it, but we...

I love my little flock. They are just so precious. I especially love little Ricky, our Rooster. He's a Black Tailed White Japanese bantam. They are all almost 4 months old, but Ricky is just learning to crow. He's so cute how he tries to be loud and commanding. His last little sound gets...

Ok so I need some help. Casi is quickly outgrowing her small dog crate she has been living in. I can't leave her out of it because my dog that she shares a room with while I'm not home will eat her. Everyone is saying just to put her back in with the other chicks but she is scared of them and...

So I have finally joined the club! I have my very own house chicken. Although it is kinda sad how it happened and I would rather it not have happened. You see, one day I took all 24 outside to play, they were only 3 weeks old at the time. I took them out in a smallish dog crate and put them...

Sorry if they're a little blurry. This was from day 1. I'll have to get some updated pictures. Everyone is doing great now.

So I'm sure its still probably too early to tell but I have 1 sumatra that pecks the other chickens butts. The feathering is all the same but he has what looks like the start of some tail feathers already. Like I said, they are all 1 week old today.

Hi. We got our food from southern states, in statesville. There is also a Tractor Supply in statesville and one in Denver. I know those aren't exactly close to you but they're the only places I know of. There might be a Tractor Supply in charlotte or closer to you than all the way in...

Well all of the rest seem fine now. I would just like to know why it happened. You know? I mean there's nothing I can do for the three that are gone now. THanks for reading and replying.

Well, no one seems to be reading this anymore but I still need to vent. I had another chick die today. A white silkie. I discovered that my babies hatched on may 28th and they didn't get here until the 1st of june. Could that be it? Because the ones that have died have been the smallest...

Thank you. My babies are 6 days old. They hatched on may 28th. The one that passed yesterday was a pasty butt casualty. My husband and mom didn't get to it in time to save it while I was at work. Then I had one die last night but it was super tiny and I think it was the stress of shipping...

So I lost another one last night, a black tailed white japanese bantam. We decided to name the sumatra that died, uno and this one, dos. I think that the bantam was just sickly and had a tough trip here. "She" never was very perky and last night she wouldn't wake up and she was getting...

I've been following this thread because I would love for one or two of my new babies to be a house chicken. I'm so sorry for your loss iluvchicks, its been a year and a half sice I lost my sweet champ, a 14.5 year old dalmation, and I still miss him so much. i also lost one of my babies today.

Ok, so they came yesterday morning. They all arrived safe and sound. 25 that I ordered plus the one free exotic chick AND one free FEMALE Blue Andalusian!! Can you believe it???? So I got them all set up in their box, with their food and water, no pasty butts, everyone was safe and happy...

Thanks, I kinda feel like I'm going to throw up.

UGGHHHHH!!! Nothing yet from the Post Office. I guess they'll come to tomorrow morning. The only thing is that I have to work tomorrow. I hope they'll come early enough that I can see them and make sure they are all healthy and happy before I have to be at work.

I got the email, they shipped out yesterday. Does anyone know how the holiday will play into their arrival????
