This reminds me of my Grandma. I guess she doesn't like furry little varmits. One day we were out gardening and she saw a gopher. She took the shovel and chopped of his head! I was speechless. She was quick!

I like to watch them play with each other. They are so funny! I love how happy they seem about everything. They make me happy!

I have new chicks! I am up hand feeding a cross beaked chick right now . She was my favorite, of course! The rest are lovely.

TMI... Someone must have slipped me an Alii last night. j/k Have you tried going for walks? It is really good for you. Be careful with diet pills. Just my opinion.

I've never hatched chicks.

A 50# bag of feed lasts me about 2 - 3 weeks, for 15 chickens (half are pigs... I mean roosters). 50# of feed cost me $11.95 & 50# of scratch is $8.99. Over the past year, I've spent less than $200 on feed & scratch for them and I've had more than enough eggs (from 7 pullets). So, I think it...

Ah, how cute. Little twins! That is cool!

Hi Welsh Chick. You will love it here! This forum has tons of info (and funny stuff), thanks to it's very friendly members. Have fun. Do you have pictures of your chickens that you can share?

You can set out frozen water bottles for them or put ice in their waterer. Or mist them like California Chick said. Mine love the sprinkler. I did these things last summer when it got hot like that here.

Thanks! I never thought of that! He raises beef cattle. And he also said "So, I heard you have chickens..." when the roosters started crowing.

I know, there should be more! But we made the list.

That is so sweet! They are too cute! I'm sorry you had to worry.

Great threads! Texas

I have a girl that I think is a BO and she lays larger, pink tinted eggs like that. Ooops, maybe the EE. sorry But they look exactly like the eggs I get from that girl.

Who me? What?

I had one try to get at me. The first time I didn't do anything. The second time I "kicked" him. Now by "kick", I mean pushing him away with my foot, like a soccer ball, not punting him like a football! They are birds. I don't agree with punting them across the yard. He hasn't tried anything...

Thanks. I looked at her comb some more and I think she will be fine. It just looked weird this morning. Looks normal now.

Thank you for your opinions. They are a young adult couple. They don't even have one chicken! The girl said she tried to raise a chick on breadcrumbs . We explained to her how to raise them. I don't think I'm giving them the roosters. I just have a bad feeling about it. You know, I mean who...

It is fine if they eat them, I can't do that. I just don't want them beat up.
