Thanks! Thats what I figured, discipline would make him a good dog. My aunt used to train dogs and taught me a lot about them. me and her are kind of distanced now due to family problems but she did teach me how to train a dog. She got my last puppy I had to learn to sit in less than 10 minutes...

I got a puppy, hes half pointer and half weimariner. Hes adorable. I got him the other day from a friend, their bird dogs had a litter by accident. My friend's dad was mad because he didn't want to mess with them but this puppy is the most adorable accident. So my question is this, because hes a...

There was a lot of replies to this so this might be the same as someone elses post. But I plan on getting a dog as well. I think the main thing is getting a puppy and letting it grow up around the chickens and then he will be used to them and know they aren't play toys or food. I would say a...

Thanks u all! I will just wait it out and see if one is a rooster. I got 10 of them so who knows. And if not I can get one later on. So thanks so much!!!!

OK! thanks. So if I decided to go ahead and get the roo, do you think he would be fine in a cage of his own? Would be get lonely for a couple months by himself? It won't be a small cage, If I decide to do this, i'll build him a big one so he will have some room, so let me know what you all...

Maybe set the other cages side by side. I am new at chickens but I know with most animals, indirect contact helps them get used to each other and at first they might act funny but then they usually calm down and get used to each other. When I have added a cat to the house, I put him in one room...

I saw an ad here in town that says free medium sized, 1 1/2 year old rooster, multi colored. They just don't want him I guess. But I got my baby chicks a couple weeks ago and they are probably half grown now, would a medium rooster attack them or bother them do you think? I want a rooster but...

Thanks everyone!!! You rock. Yeah I got pics of them. They have a myspace. ha. Its www.myspace.com/nateschicks (promise its a chicken page not girls. ha.) So yeah i'm putting a slideshow on the front page as not everyone on here is into myspace. If you don't have one you can still view their...

aawww! Thats too cute. I bet the dog thinks the chicks belong to her. Ha. I want to get a puppy so it can grow up around my chickens because i'm going to let them roam in my backyard during the day and I wanna make sure nothing is going to try to attack them during the day while they roam the...

I don't know how old my babies were when I got them 2 weeks ago from the store but I knew a couple days ago they were too small for even the HUGE box I had for them. I had to make a coop. I think if you have one that isn't too drafty and all you could put them out whenver. When they start...

My dad pointed out that you'd want a coop that provides full shelter to everything but then the run can have access to sunlight. The problem with sticking them in full sun that I see is that your pretty much baking them. They can overheat and I think this would cause that. Of course this depends...

So i'm clueless about the heatlamps. I have 2 and have them clipped in my coop and they keep it nice and cozy, I sat in the coop myself for a second and it kept me nice and toasty so it does the job. I have it set up on a light sensor plug that turns them on at night and off during the day. My...

So yeah my girls are doing good, still growing bigger. My little babies are growing up. yeah I keep my radio on this station that seems to have a good variety of music, has old and new music and my girls seem to love it. I was out at a store here-Big Lots, dunno if you all have one there but...

So yeah as some of you know I got my 10 chicks, two weeks ago tomorrow, to be exact. And Yeah I love my girls so much. They are the cutest and they are so hilarious to watch. I spent last saturday and then tuesday, working all day both days, building my chicken coop and this is just my...

I'm a new parent to 10 cute chicks as of a week and a half ago and its so awesome that people look at their chickens as pets rather than egg layers or food. Thats what everyone else thinks they are and asked me why I don't just go to the store and buy eggs and chicken there. I won't cook my...

Thats so sad to hear these horror stories of the little chicks. I thought it sounded neat to order through the mail but now i'm thinking i'll stick with the local hardware store here. They get them shipped through trucks and some die but at least I won't have to see it I guess. When I got my...

Here they are peeps. Pics didn't turn out too well, still need to get a new cam. This is one of my chicks with her wing spread, they are getting bigger! One of my 5 little brownish/red colored chicks Another chick One of the yellow ones! Their wings are showing white feathers growing out...

sure let me get some new pics and i'll post them on here later.

Thats so true. I don't care so much about what others think about my chickens or the way I live. It kind of comes in handy in my life. Me being gay and all. It doesn't work in the gay commmunity if you care what others think, you'd go crazy. So when I get other crazy ideas, I go with them...

Thats funny about the chickens flying everywhere! I want to get a couple bantams for the fun of it, they are pretty cute. And as far as the pics of my chickens, my digital cam went out but I do have the cam on my palm pilot, didn't get too good pics of them but you can view them at...
