    california - CENTRAL COAST

    Wow Kim, Thanks for the reply. I may take you up on the contact down the road if I keep feeling the itch. I've looked into CCFF but haven't seen much action there in the last year. Are they still posting information about gatherings somewhere? Cheers, Emily

    california - CENTRAL COAST

    Hello fellow central coasters! I'm located in SLO and actively looking for blue laced red wynadottes and BCM to add to my flock. Any local leads? All the hatcheries sell out so quickly and charge too much for shipping. Thanks! Emily

    Blue Maran 14 weeks Boy or Girl game PHOTOS!

    roach back? I thought that was a horse thing. What does that mean for chickens? Does it indicate gender, health, or is it just aesthetic?

    Blue Maran 14 weeks Boy or Girl game PHOTOS!

    Hello all, My two new Blue Maran chicks are adorable and awesome and one may be a boy. Unfortunately, I'm in town and I need to figure this out before s(he) crows and angers my grumpy neighbor. They live with three other hens who are about 5 weeks older and the older pullets are dominate over...

    what happened to global warming pun intended

    I'm confused how so many of you are so certain that climate change is a falsehood without being scientists yourselves. The anecdotes on weather patterns being cold or wet this winter mean nothing in the scheme of comprehensive climate change. You're right to be unsure about how the climate will...
