I have got a lot of hens with only 2 of them being araucana's but I have gotten 3 eggs a day from them for the last 8 weeks. 2 green and 1 blue. It will be 1 large green 1 large blue and 1 small green every day. Before they started the extra every day I did not get anything from either of them...

My own personal choice is to use the ground as the floor and put straw and wood chips over top of it. I live way out in the country and putting a floor in just gives rats, snakes, coons, possum, weasel, and any number of other things a place to hide or house themselves with a close access to...

An old one by Mike Snider If My Nose Was Running Money Honey I'd Blow It All On You

Here is Lowrys, just outside of chester and about a quarter mile from the York County line. Get the bator going I just hatched out 12 more leghorn and 6 more Delaware chicks 2 days ago so this warm weather is going to get them into the brooder box in my shop a little quicker. Ain't this...

The ones in York county open at 1:30 also. They should all be stocked up on the bators by now. Go nuts.

You had better hope you kill that meat with a bow or a sledge hammer because I just got back from the gun shop to get some new tips for some arrows and Todd (the owner) told me that he has gotten paper work in the last 2 weeks letting him know that within the next 3 months he will be required to...

I don't see what is supposed to be scary or where you mean nut jobs are at. From the things you posted they ( the individual states) have only been enacting the protectionist powers, not only allowed by, but laid out, in the constitution of the U.S. As far as some of the video links, you can...

I don't keep mine for more than a week before putting in the bator and just leave them in a couple of cartons on the counter at room temp.

Could just be digging out holes to take their dust baths in. Mine like to have theirs along the edge of the fence too for some reason.

I have a few that start up around 9 in the winter and 8 in the summer but the rest lay anytime up until about 30 minutes before dusk.

Try leaving her in the coop by herself for a few days while the others are out all day and put a golf ball in a nest and let her get used to having to lay in the coop then she will most likely start going back to lay. I have had to do it that way a couple of times.

Just got back from our TSC and asked while I was there and was told it is up to each store manager if they want to get them or not, how many, what kind, and where they get them from.

Sure thing, its only there to show her she is supposed to lay in the nest and she seems to have that down. Anything under her now will only make her want to stay there and hatch it out.

If you keep taking them she will get the point. She is getting up and getting a drink and something to eat real quick like so she won't be in any danger, just don't leave them under her to long and encourage her. Good luck and have a blessed day.

Those are some good looking girls. Don't worry too much about it. They will start pretty soon and next month you'll be trying to get rid of some of the eggs. My RIR girls were a bit fussy too until they started laying steady. They are still not as clingy as the Delawares but even the biggest Roo...

Mine go for the lower ones where it is the thickest but they will grab a limb, or me, and get as high as they can. Around the edges they look like speckeledhens pic, jumping for all they are worth. I have about 2 acres of wild blackberries that they go after and they go wild for the wild cherry...

Great pic speckledhen, mine do that in the blackberries if I don't pick enough and hand feed them a bunch a few times a day.

If they can get to them you will have a bunch of bare stems pretty fast.

Mine all think they are ducks. I put a sprinkler out for them when it is hot and dry and they stay in it until I cut it off. Even when it rains they come out of their house and play in the rain no matter if it is hot or cold. Just a yard full of dripping,drooping, happy chickens who just can't...

Dominiques are often called dominekers around here. It is just a way of speaking depending on who and where you are. One area feed store sells dominiques and another about 10 miles away sells dominekers, the owner is an older gentleman and that is what his parents called them so that is what his...
