Unbelievable. I am stunned, you just cost me a lot of money, I am driving to the hardware store tomorrow. lol.... honestly best coop I may have ever seen.
I will be there. Did you go to the trade/swap event April 8,9,10? Was as big as I have ever seen it, good times. I have a handful of beautiful wyandottes and leghorns I would like to show but have not decided on it yet.
Bump.... for respect. And one of my favorite actors of all time.
I still can't believe he is gone.
I just watched Superhero Movie the other night. Might have been his last film... I dunno. But I loved it - just cause he was in it. He was so hilarious in anything he appeared in. Ahead of...
I have to go with Barred Rock for hen. Black Australorp for roo.
I've had a lot of different breeds of rooster, but he takes the cake for the funnest guy to be around.
I 2 roosters that I have kept in my flock. One is an australorp. He is my favorite. He has a very good personality. Very large bird. (He eats a little too much). HA.
He crows very loud. About every 2-3 hours starting from about 5am. Also any time someone comes over, or makes any loud...
Congrats man! I have had eggs for a long while now, but one of my newer hens laid her first on this same day.!
Never gets old. Ever.
Every time I have a hen lay her first egg, I feel like a new dad walking out of that coop.
You have to cook them up. Celebrate with a scrambled egg...
UPDATE:
The chicks came Friday morning. I called the post office like you guys said and McMurray for an update. The post office called at 6:30 AM sharp said they were there.
All 27 new chicks looked fine except for 1. I was kinda limp. She died the next day.
The other 26 are all hyper and...
Whats up guys. Brian And Kim from Moscow OH. About 35 minutes east of Cincinnati down US 52.
Over 40 chickens. All pure breed.
HUGE Reds fans. HELL YES!!! Playoffs, here we come!
I bought 26 more chicks. They will be delivered Sept 29 - Oct 2.
How does this work with them? I guess the post office will call my contact number?
Has anybody done this? What time do they usually call? and did Murray McMurray send you a email saying they were shipped?
I've bought all my...
Here it goes. I have the best rooster of all time, I love him... His name is Dave. He is a light brown leghorn. Another rooster named Wooley. He is a silver laced wyandotte. Along with 11 other assorted grown hens. Alot of breeds. Dave is definately the man of the house.
I have done...
I have 17 chickens. Two are roosters. One is a light brown leghorn who from day one has held dominance. The other is a silver laced wyandotte. (13 of the 17 raised together from day one including the roosters.)
The leghorn has always been the dominate one, they always got along. But...
Those have to be pullets compared to the two I have. I picked up two day olds. They are about the same age now and they have massive rose combs and wattles comared to yours. (silver laced).
Mine have much wider combs, and the comb seems to be growing very quickly past the area it last...
Shredded pine. I use it all the time, along with a little straw. Smells great, and is said to repell fleas and pest pretty good.
It seems to deal with the droppings a little better to me. Alot more absorbant. The straw getts matted up, and kind of sticks together, as well as your shoes...
All of my chickens were raised together from day old. They get along fine. 15 of them.
I always wanted a couple barred rocks so I got 2 last weekend at Lucasville poultry swap. They are 5 week old pullets.
I put them in the coop and the flock completely rejected them, they won't let them...
