    Chicken Lice: What Worked for You?

    You might try Sevin dust that you put on vegetable plants. I dusted the rear end of chicks and it got rid of them.

    What's your "Dream Flock"? How many chickens is the perfect amount for you? What breeds do you adore?

    Hi, I like colored eggs so I have 1 Easter Egger that lays light blue eggs, an Americana that lays a light green egg, and a mix of the Easter Egger and Cuckoo Marans that lays an olive green egg. I have been wanting to have some dark brown eggs. I have 2 cuckoo Marans hens. One lays a darker...

    New Here!

    Hi, Welcome to BYC. My friend got me into chickens over 10 years ago. We live on a 1/2 acre lot outside of town. The chickens free range on about 1/4 acre. They go into their coop at night and get shut in. My husband is very supportive of my hobby but once in a while he pretends not to like...

    Any idea on this chick?

    Her configuration around the eyes looks like my Americana chicks or an Easter Egger.

    Most common/highest in demand backyard chickens

    I sell chicks on Craigs List. I noticed that a lot of people want the colored egg layers. I have a Cuckoo Marans rooster and 2 Cuckoo Marans hens. One of the hens lays darker eggs then the other. When I bought them I didn't know that the Cuckoos lay the lightest of the dark brown egg layers...

    Candling Outside During the Day

    This is my first time using a broody hen. It was a rough start because she sat on the eggs during the day but went up on the roost at night with the other hens. Day 3 she stayed down and stayed on the eggs. We had one black langshan that kept laying her eggs in the broody nest she at one time...

    Strange situation

    Hi, Congrats on your new chicks. I have been raising some Easter Egger chicks that I ordered from Tractor Supply. They are now 2 months old and very flighty. When I got them I just wanted 4 but had to order 10 so I thought I would sell the others on Craigs list. They never calmed down so I...

    What do you raise your chickens for?

    They are fun to watch and entertaining. I also like collecting the eggs.

    Don't eat that.

    Mine like my diamond ring. They peck at the diamond so I have to use the other hand if I am hand feeding them. Also they like corn chips. If I have some that have gotten stale I break them in pieces and hand feed them to them. They love them.

    Sorry to hear your situation. It is really hard. Sometimes you have to let them go. I will be praying for you and your family.

    They’re here!

    Good luck. Do you have them in the house? One time I raised 50 chicks in a kids swimming pool with a center board that I clipped the brooder lamp to. I had wire on top so they could not fly out and towels on top the wire. The light got too hot on the towels and started to smolder. I almost...

    Cuckoo Maran - pullet or roo?

    Hi, I bought 3 Cuckoo Maran females and 1 turned out to be a lot lighter than the other 2. The internet says the males are lighter. He is about 3 months old. His tail feathers are coming out longer and curved.
