Thank you so much for the reply! I appreciate the response! ill have to shoot them an email!

Anyone know what happened to Dragonfly Farm in Beebe AR? i dont have a facebook and i cant seem to get the website to work. Are they still around? I really wanted to get some chicks from them this year. i reached out and got a response in 2020 but cant seem to get ahold of them now? My flock...

Lol good deal, I guess I never saw chickens as picky eaters.

Afternoon, That's super cool to hatch your own baby's, I hope most if not all of them hatch! Coops.... I have 6 girls and I originally started out with a rickety brooder I made out of old fence wood and chicken wire In my garage. My POA at the time wouldn't allow chickens so everything had...

Good Morning All, It's a beautiful morning just south of Houston TX. Nothing like a cup of coffee, a little front porch sitting watching the sun rise and the girls run around the yard.... To the point... so I've been feeding the girls NCO (new country organics) since they were chicks. None of...

Good Morning, I'm a little south of Houston and i absolutely love your coop! id like to try and replicate something similar now that i have some property and I don't have to hide my girls from an HOA. Do you have a materials list for your coop? 2x4s 4x4s etc.? sizes? Id really appreciate it...

This is awesome! ive been looking for this information thanks for asking and thanks for the responses. My GLWs have been laying some pretty small eggs (they've been laying about a month) and I knew they would be small at first, just didn't know when they would pick up in size. Thanks Yall!

"well well well..... look whos back..... I told you life as a chimney sweep wasn't for you.... but NOOOOOOO.... you just had to see for yourself...."

Thanks! im going to have to give that a shot. ive read some on fermenting, not sure my experience or confidence is ready for that yet hahaha. ill give this soaking thing a shot once they eat it down to the fines again. Thanks, WW

Sweet! well that makes me feel a lot better about it then. I'm glad they got back with you, just sucks it took so long. They really need to reprint the label…. 🤔 You mentioned your flock didn't really eat the fines and you soak them. What does that entail? you just wet it down? Mine don't eat...

Thanks CG! I really apricate it! WW

Thanks GC! No, I said chick grit 🤦‍♂️, I had no idea what I needed so I thought id start small and when they were laying id get the larger poultry grit. Could they are eating so much of it to make up for the lack of it, in size and in general? ill get some poultry grit ordered. Will they self...

Im glad I came across this thread. So I just recently introduced my girls (9 GLW) to some chick grit about 2 weeks ago, they are 16 weeks old on the 3rd. I also just took them off of chick starter and put them on grower/Broiler feed until they start to lay. I give them a small bowl of grit...

Wow, I just went and looked, and it is considerably higher than other starter and grower broiler feed. Hmmm.... my girls have been on it since the 3rd they were at home and they seem to love it never had an issue with them not taking it or anything. I know I've read the label before but I guess...

This is awesome info Kiki, im going to have to check them out. I currently use New Country Organics, I don't know how they compare but it would be nice to have a somewhat local organic grain mill. very cool! WW

So Im still new to the game but most of the folks I talk to and the majority of what I read says to not feed layer feed until they start to lay. With that said, I've read several on here that say it can be beneficial to start before laying to improve egg shell quality and prepare the birds for...

The dragonfly farms I'm talking about is out of Arkansas, Are they the same company? I didn't know there was one in Hillsborough lol. They are a little pricey, but if the product is quality as they look, and good standard quality birds, Id say they are worth it.

I actually ordered my chicks through tractor supply, but I did it online. They actually got here 3 days before their supposed "ship date". its funny looking at this post now, I ordered my babys on the 27th of march, ship date was supposed to be April 6th, my post office called me on April 3rd...

Have you found what your looking for? Dragonfly farms has some good looking wyandottes that are standard bread. My next set of chicks will come from them. not sure if they sell the eggs but worth a shot.

Thank Yall, im really looking forward to spending a lot of time here hahaha. Such a warm welcome from this group!
