I bought a coop that I found on Craigslist last week. It is an Amish built coop that I couldn't have bought the materials for what I paid for it. I'm a do it youselfer and always build stuff like this myself, but have eggs in the incubator and needed another coop and no time to build one and...

This is a buy it now listing for a dozen eggs from my Blue laced red Wyandottes. They are beautiful birds that come from Blue poultry lines. Price of 12 eggs is $40.00 shipped. The eggs will be fresh layed the day they are shipped. Eggs will be shipped priority mail. Due to circumstances...

I have eggs in the incubator now. The first hatch is due April 14th. These are nice looking birds that come from Blue Poultry lines. I bought my originals from them as day olds 2 years ago. I am located in southern Maryland and am offering these for local pick up. PM me with any questions.

I have fertile hatching eggs from my Blue laced reds. My original flock I bought as day olds from Blue poultry two years ago. I have since been hatching and culling to try and better the breed. I currently have about 16 dozen in the incubator and don't really need any more so I'm offering...

I have a flock of Blrw's. I bought these as day old chicks from Blue Poultry last year. Early this spring I started hatching chicks and have about 60 now. I have Splash, blue and black laced varieties I'm breeding with. I have 6-8 young birds that appear to be golden laced. There is no...

I noticed today that one of my hens is walking low to the ground (not upright like she would walk) and weebling around like she's drunk. She was also very skitish almost like she was on speed or something. She was with the flock in the yard foraging. She doesn't look sick, just acting funny...

I got my first BCM egg today. I'll try and get a pic and post. I know that their first eggs are supposed to be their darkest, but it is so dark and on the large side as well for a first egg.

What would cause black spots to suddenly appear on most of my roo's (haven't noticed it on the hens) within the last week or so? It hasn't gotten that cold. The lowest the temp has been is in the high 20's at night. They are 21 weeks old and the hens just started laying Saturday. Any ideas...

I have 9 roosters and 8 hens in one of my coupes that are 21 weeks old and just started laying Saturday (got first four eggs). Today I come home from work and go to the coupe to see how many eggs are in there and there is a dead hen with her head removed and half eaten from her hind parts. It...

I have about 8 extra roosters that are 21 weeks old. They have been fine together until the last week or two. There are just too many together. I'm in the southern Maryland area and do not want to ship birds. They are beautiful birds imho and figured I'd see if anyone in the area was looking...

I have 17 BLRW and 3 BCM chicks that are about 10 weeks old. They are all the same age and have all been together since day olds. They are just getting to the point where I think I can start telling the sex. About 2 weeks ago I moved them from the brooder to the chicken house. They have all...

I have been having a problem getting chicks to hatch this year, and can't figure out why. It may be more obvious to some on here thats why I figured I'd ask. I have been hatching birds for 4 years now. Up until this year I have been dealing exclusivley with ducks. Last year I bought a QFC...

I put paper towels down in the bottom of the brooder for my 17 just hatched bobwhite. 6 of them seem to have spraddle leg. I've always used paper towels for the first few days with all my different chicks and never had any problems. What do you guys use in the bottom of your brooders for the...

I've been reading here for a while, but this is my first post. I have a problem with my chickens being sick. I only have 4 white rocks, 3 hens and 1 rooster. A few days ago I noticed the rooster acting like he didn't want to stand up. I noticed what looked like a sore on his foot so I...
