I will be heading through lewiston later that day if anybody is interested in some 1 week old mutts who will likely grow up to look like exact copies of their pure black sumatra grandmother chicken
I might be going, if it sounds like there is an interest for what I have and if it sounds like there will be laying hens.
I have about 15 chicks who will be a week old at that point, they are mixed breed but they all look like they will grow up looking like exact copies of their grandmother, who...
I'm planning on going to this. I will be bringing 3-4 pet-quality showgirl roosters, no aggression problems. I will also probably be bringing some chicks, depending on what hatches out. I have about 30 total under a couple of my hens, some due to hatch in about a week and others due in 2. They...
So we lost that chick, and the other one is declining. I tried the sugar water with the first but she wouldnt take it. We since also lost an older silkie chick that was fine and following me around before I left work. They were in our basement for a little while because we were do coop...
My hen hatched out 5 chicks a bit over a month ago. They have all seemed fine until yesterday. We lost one and another werent looking so great last night. I just went to check on them and thought one was dead so I got somthing to put her in but I came back and she had moved a little and was...
I had 2 mother silkies with about 8 chicks that I started putting outside in my new coop which has a huge run attached to it. I thought this thing was pretty wells sealed with wire buried underneath the entire thing then attatched to the sides of the run so there were no gaps. If there was a...
I have 6 new chicks that I bought at a chickenstock this past weekend. My mom was looking at them this evening and noticed something that probably wouldn't have ever caught my eye. They all have big squishy lumps on their chests. My mom noticed it while I was at work, and was afraid it was an...
I ended up with nine all together yesterday. Mom had told me to bring home some silkie hens and laying hens, and I ended up with 6 chicks and 3 pretty young silkies all st run. I caught 2 of the silkies doing a bit of fighting like roos today, and one of them even tried picking a fight with the...

if you don't find any on here, TSC has not very tall rolls of it conveniently in the parking lot.
Yea, but im hoping that I can get someone leftovers for less money because I'm a college student and just bought my first car this past weekend so im a little broke lol.
Probably a bit late to be asking, but does anyone have any spare chicken wire or hardware cloth leftover that you would sell cheap? I was getting my empty coop ready in case I bring home some adult chickens tomorrow it reminded me that I need to bury some wire under my run to finish predator...
I remembered this morning that I have a meeting for 4-H on Sunday, so looks like I wont be going to mass. That means I will be going to to the chickenstock! As much as I don't need more chicks and really need laying hens, I might look into some more silkie chicks. I have a broody that failed to...
Decisions, decisions. I haven't gotten to go to any chickenstocks yet this year because I haven't had use of a car, but I officially got my own car this weekend! But now im trying to decide between chickenstock and going to mass to visit my boyfriend.

Any idea what 4-H group is going to be there and what they will be doing? That is normally an area that our group would be involved in and I haven't heard anything about it
He didn't say which group. I know there is a horse group in Topsham and a group in Harpswell as well (not sure...
Mom apparently forgot that she told me she would go to this and even talked about buying more chickens, because yesterday I said something about it and she told me she has other plans.
...I really need to get a car!
