    Buff Geese

    Well, that certainly makes sense! And would also explain why one is much more cream colored than the other. Thanks for clearing that up, CelticOaksFarm!

    Buff Geese

    Jeez - so sorry, guys - my internet connection is giving me fits today and I'm not sure how to delete posts. Trying to figure it out might take me all day and take down the whole forum so I'm going to apologize for the multiple posts. Maybe a mod could remove them or I will try again later -...

    Buff Geese

    Hmmm. I may be confused (which I'll admit is often the case) but we got 2 American Buffs from Holderread's this summer. I believe that we ordered from the "American, assorted colors" and somehow ended up with Buffs, perhaps because they were thinning their stock? Anyway, we placed our...

    my favorite (of course) hen lethargic with soft shelled eggs- oh no!

    Thanks so much for responding, Miss Lydia. She perked up a bit this evening and was out scratching around for a bit. She went to roost with everyone else for the night so I figure I'll let her stay where she's comfortable. I got some great information on this thread...

    my favorite (of course) hen lethargic with soft shelled eggs- oh no!

    I've been reading up on the threads trying to find something similar to what's going on with my very favorite lady. She's been looking a bit...ragged lately - just not as fluffy as her peers. Her feathers, I mean. Last week I found a soft-shelled egg in the coop which I thought was probably...

    how to integrate these ladies? (complex chicken math)

    Thanks M_F (am I allowed to call you that? It doesn't sound very nice - heh)! I went ahead and got the one hen out of the dog crate and let her run around the chicken yard by herself and she was *thrilled*. I figured, what the heck - everyone is so confused that I'll just put the young...

    how to integrate these ladies? (complex chicken math)

    Calling all integration experts! Here's what we have: 2 established ladies (a little over a year old) 2 newish young ones (approx. 15 weeks old) 1 VERY (as in we just picked her up) new older hen that was being bullied at my friend's house. Right now we have 2 established ladies in their...

    Got 2 chicks - now one's a roo. What to do?

    Oooh burn! Nice one Mr. Chicken207! Good news - chicks are gone. Just drove off in the back of someone's truck to their new home in the country. Whoo hoo! Thanks, all!

    Got 2 chicks - now one's a roo. What to do?

    Thanks, everyone. I found an awesome older post by little_grey_bantam about re-homing roos and I'm following her most excellent advice. Trying to sell them as a pair may make things easier (on the birds and on me!) so I've got several ads posted. Keep your fingers crossed!

    Got 2 chicks - now one's a roo. What to do?

    All hail the wise peeps of BYC! I've lurked forever but never had a question that was specific enough to me to post. So here goes. We got 2 baby chicks to add to our existing flock of 2 happy ladies. The past 2 days I have figured out that one of our babies is a BOY. I am so, so upset, as...
