    New Chicks - Update

    And after 15 months, all 15 girls are doing very well, giving us 12 to 13 eggs per day, making us, my neighbors and relatives very happy. Thanks to this site and all of you for posting some great tips for beginners like myself!!

    Pullet or cockerel?

    The pictures are not that good, but here he/she is with his/her sister on the right. All the chicks in the pictures were born March 15. Besides the 3 leghorns, this BR is the only one with a sizable comb.

    Pullet or cockerel?

    Quote: I will post a picture of the other 2 PR pullets tomorrow. A big THANK YOU to all for taking the time and post your opinions. And I do hope it's a pullet (since I definitely cannot have roosters)

    Pullet or cockerel?

    I had posted this on the Raising baby chicks forum and was told that I may get more answers if I posted here. Do you think my 16 week old BR pullet is a cockerel? Sure looks like one, but I hope she is not!!

    Is it moral to eat meat? ***Constructive Discussion ONLY***

    I was born in a rural region in Italy and have always eaten meat. Not much and not very often, but usually in Sunday. We had no such thing as "pets". We had chickens, for meat and for eggs.

    Little old lady

    All women should live so long as to be this kind of old lady! Toward the end of Sunday service, the Minister asked, 'How many of you have forgiven your enemies?' 80% held up their hands. The Minister then repeated his question. All responded this time, except one small elderly lady. 'Mrs...

    When do you take your chicks from inside to outside?

    Quote: I did the same at 4 weeks. They seem to love the additional room and are adjusting to the temperature. I keep the heat lamp on only at night, so far so good.

    Got the coop done today,the run is the project for tomorrow!

    Great job with the coop and run. Like you stated, with the fox around, may want to run some 1/2" hardware cloth around the perimeter of the run. How high up are the nesting boxes?

    New supermarket

    A new supermarket opened near my house. It has an automatic water mister to keep the produce fresh. Just before it goes on, you hear the sound of distant thunder and the smell of fresh rain. When you pass the milk cases, you hear cows mooing and you experience the scent of fresh cut hay. In...
