    Black Silkie roo and the chicks he fathered with Salmon Faverolle and Austra White hens...

    My Silkie roo, Jack, fathered 4 beautiful chicks in August. I *think* they're all pullets but would like confirmation. They'll be 11 weeks old tomorrow.

    Almost 4 month old Silkies... pullets or cockerels?

    Everyone said it's hard to sex Silkies and boy they weren't kidding! My three, 1 blue and 2 blacks, hatched on Sept. 30. Anyone care to confirm what I suspect we have here? There is one that is really throwing me for a loop and these pics are mainly focused on him(??). Pretty sure the pretty...

    New member, again, but second time chicken keeper.

    Hi all, just a quick introduction. I was on BYC over 11 years ago when I got my first flock of chickens. We had the oldest of that flock, a little bantam d'Uccle hen, for 9 years until a predator got her. After the last of the flock died off I took a break from chickens for a couple of years...

    Anyone in the Collegeville, PA area looking for a coop?

    Maybe you can talk this person out of tearing this adorable coop down! Don't know how hard it would be to move it, but it looks like it's in good condition. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260941911081

    Is it me or is this just plain rude?

    I have a first cousin who has 2 kids. Every year she plans a birthday party for them and every year she sends the invitation to me last minute via my mother. I just find it extremely rude that she can't either send an actual invitation to us or pick up the phone and call me herself. On...

    New puppy... or two?

    I'm so excited, we're getting a new baby boy in a few weeks! He's part chihuahua and part toy poodle, just a tiny thing right now, and not expected to get over 6-7 lbs when grown. I have an opportunity to get a second puppy, a pure breed chihuahua, from someone else. They're 3 weeks apart...

    Very bummed tonight. :(

    I found out tonight that a couple I've known for years has separated. This news is very distressing to me.... this couple seemed so perfect together, and so in love. It has put me down in the dumps, and I don't know why since we weren't all that close, we are members of the same church and the...

    Horse people, I have a question for you...

    Can a horse be depressed, or lonely and sad? We have some neighbors that recently got a single horse. After a week or two of having her the newness must have worn off and I never see anyone giving her any attention... not brushing her, not visiting her, not feeding her, nothing. Now she just...

    Craigslist rant

    So I spend a good half hour creating a for sale post for a gaming seat and racing wheel and within 15 minutes of it going on Craigslist it DISAPPEARS! Why would anyone flag something like that? Why else would it disappear?

    Raccoon running across the road in broad daylight...

    I thought there was a big cat running across the road, until I got close enough to see that it was a raccoon. Think it was rabid?

    What cell phone service do you use...

    Our contract with Sprint will be up soon and I'm trying to decide if we're going to stick with them or change. As I'm researching and reading over all the different company plans I feel like pulling my hair out. Sprint has been ok for us when we're traveling but here at the house the coverage...

    Egg dilemma, what would you do?

    One of our d'Uccles is determined to hide her eggs. I just found her most recent hiding place, in the corner of the coop, directly ON THE NASTY FLOOR! She is our only hen that is laying right now, and she had 10 eggs hidden in that little feather covered nest. The dilemma... I want to keep...
