Thanks! Since we don’t have a crate like that my dad and I have been busy making one... Also I’m putting cold packs under her I’m not sure if it’s lowering her body temp any tho (Don’t worry I’m making sure the packs aren’t too cold) -Roostie

Hey guys, so about two weeks ago the hen I’m taking to fair got broody.. no big deal right? I caught it early. No problem! *wrong! My hen is still broody and it’s a week before fair! She is very determined. If I lock her out she’ll fly on top of the coup! I kinda really need to fix this problem...

Thank you I will check that link out! We washed the chickens about a week ago with warm water and some sort of soap I forget the kind right now but it seems to have worked! My chickens are mite free!(for now) and hopefully they will stay clean for the 4-H fair in a couple weeks! Thanks all for...

Yes the bath is to help get rid of the mites and also to get them all clean for fair and to get the chicken I’m taking to fair un broody lol! Whenever I mess with one of their dusting holes they don’t dust in it anymore lol! Also they are completely free range and they have plenty to choose from...

Hey guys, So my chickens have some kind of mites right now (they get them almost every year) and I’ve dusted them with some chicken permethrin but they still need a bath. I caught the mites early so they aren’t that bad right now so please don’t assume I’m under reacting cause I know how bad...

Do you know if TSC is still selling chicks???

Hey guys! So recently my rooster died so we don't have fertile eggs anymore. And yesterday my best hen got kinda broody she is a really good mother and if we ever got chicks again we would want her to hatch them! We prefer araucanas/ameraucanas(Easter eggers) I know this is kinda a long shot...

Welcome to byc!!! :celebrate:frow:wee:ya:thumbsup:welcome:D Is it true that you can actually fry an egg by the sun in Arizona????

Up here we would have a week long party if someone sprayed for mosquitoes!!!:celebrate:ya:woot

Wow I can't believe that your guys' countys actually do that! I've been using vanilla mixed with a little water for the flies it only helps a little. we have a big yard so spaying the whole thing is outa question (money wise). As for asking my extension office we've tried before and they...

Lol the last few sentences I unintentionally rhymed!! Sorry I get amused very easily

She is very spry considering her age. Last year I thought she was dead from a hawk attack but when I picked her up she lifted her own head (I cried) and she had a giant slit in her side!! I could go on and on with times she has almost died lol

Hey! I have a 13 year old ameraucana that still lays eggs. Whenever she's in the nesting box and is about to lay one she starts to yell at me( that's what I call it anyway cause I'm pretty sure that's what she's doing)and once in a while she will have an egg with a soft shell. She has been...

also please no spoilers if you reply to my comment I haven't seen endgame yet lol

At least we know he won't go for the head on the chicken if he isn't :gig

I wonder what Chris hemsworth would think if he knew people named their chickens after his marvel character... also, welcome to BYC!!!:welcome:celebrate:frow:ya

lol yesterday I took my broody gen out of the box(we don't have a roo so It doesn't make sense to keep her in there). The turkeys start to come by really close and she kinda puffs up and attacks one of them I barely stopped her from chasing them all the way across the yard!:lau

Good idea!

Yes. The door just leads out into the yard. I guess our turkeys are kinda crazy:lau
