My chicks are hatching!!! And I'm putting them into the brooder as they start walking around the incubator. But one is taking longer to dry and I'm wondering if i should just move it to the brooder. Is my humidity too high in the incubator, maybe? I have no way of telling what the humidity...

I am located in Upstate NY (near Saratoga Springs). I have several Silkie chicks that were born on Mother's Day that are looking really good. They were hatched out of my SQ white hen and SQ Blue splash Roo. The white hen was broody and out of 22 eggs, she hatched 21 (with the help of her SQ...

Frequently, my chickens will eat my goats organic grain (because the goats are sloppy) and I am wondering if that is ok. We have a few guinea hens, turkeys and ducks that do this, too. It can't hurt can it???

I am so thrilled with these 20 babies! They are beautiful. Just sayin'...

I am looking to purchase SQ or BQ Silkie chicks or pullets in Blue or Splash. I will travel to VT or MA if necessary. I am in the Albany/Saratoga Springs (anyone coming to the Racetrack???) area.

Hi. Does anyone know where my friend can purchase 10-15 Buff Orpington pullets in the Central Ohio (North of Columbus) area??? She is looking to start a small laying flock and likes that breed. Thanks in advance.

Hi all. I am new to the boards and live in the Saratoga Springs area of NY. I have shown dogs for the past 20 years, but recently fell in love with Silkie chickens! Anyone know of a nice quality breeder in my area?

Hi all! I'm just finding my way around the board and thought I'd introduce myself. I live in upstate NY near the Vermont border. We have a small hobby farm that includes several goats, chickens, turkeys, ducks and a silkie. I would love to add more silkies as I think they are wonderful, but hard...
