I see there are multiple Bomgaars stores in CO. Is there a particular one you frequent/like/recommend or are any okay?

Does anyone have any experience with this? How it compares to the Mama Heating Pad heating blanket? https://www.mypetchicken.com/catalog/Chicken-Supplies/Cozy-Coop-Heater-p2406.aspx

Thank you so much for this info. I was not familiar with Bomgaars nor with the genetic issues of Easter Eggers. I appreciate you sharing this with me.

Super helpful! Thank you for this excellent advice. I've pulled up the Henderson's Poultry Chart and will be checking Feathersite next. Thank you!

WOW! Just looked up the CL ad for Northern Colorado Feeder Supply. WOW! You are right, I would be happy to drive up there and avoid the shipping issues. Thanks so much for this very helpful info. I'm going to research the 5 that you mentioned you'd get and I like your suggestion that they...

Hi! I am indeed in the Front Range :) So, I should note that I know NOTHING about ANYTHING. When I say I am new to all this, I mean, completely, brand-spanking, have no clue. I've read plenty of books but it's a lot of info to keep in my head, so I'm just trying to keep it all straight...

Hello All-The-People-Who-Have-More-Experience-Than-I: I am starting the chick selection process because I like to plan things REALLY far in advance. So I was hoping I could pick some brains for some help: I went onto My Pet Chicken.com to use their "breed selection tool" and see what kind of...

Is that a pink egg?! I don’t know that was a thing! I’m sorry to hear about your tough times. It’s wonderful that you are willing and able to be of assistance to your husband and sister.

This is a gorgeous chicken- woah!

That’s a great way to look at it. The more I reconsider this, the more excited I am to get EEs.

This is so funny! They look super friendly

Sitting on your foot!

Great- that’s what I had thought but the comment from the acquaintance threw me off. I would like to try having an Easter egger or two- the eggs are just exquisite.

May I ask what kind of hens laid the center white eggs, so I can have a size comparison idea?

Oh Snap, yes, I think this part answers two of my three main questions: c. Accessory structures/uses of one hundred twenty (120) square feet or less in gross floor area are allowed anywhere in the rear yard setback so long as the structure does not encroach into any recorded easements, unless...

Sorry if this is a super dumb question, but I'm brand new and I know a little less than nothing. Generally speaking, does the term Easter Egger only denote that the hens lay eggs of the pretty pastel colors? Are the eggs variable in size? I was asking an acquaintance who has a few barred...

Hello, I've been trying to contact the city of Colorado Springs to get information on if there are any restrictions in the building code for a chicken coop. I was able to use BYC's forum to find this page: https://coloradosprings.gov/page/city-regulations-animals And the city code at this...

Yes, I’ve been looking over the coop articles for a while. I don’t have a whole lot of experience building things so I am not really able to “wing it” and so I thought I might get lucky and see if this person would share his plans. I’m starting to pick bits and pieces from coop articles and...

@WeeFarmerSarah Okay, so if I plan to have a six inch raised "lip" around the bottom of the coop and build the door over that, I would be able to have a way to keep the snow from freezing the door closed and also work to keeping the shavings inside, correct? Do you prefer the door to open...

Oh wow, that' a great tip. Would you happen to know what a good angle of sloping would be?
