    could this be an EE??

    Definitely an EE and very adorable. Here were my 2 EEs when they were babies (and an Australorp) And here's the puffy cheeked one all grown up (after she laid her first egg).

    I'm afraid of murdering my chicks

    I'd turn off the lamp and put an ice bottle in one end so they can cool off.

    Poultry Ordinances for Sturbridge, MA

    I took a quick look through the online zoning laws and it appears to say that farming is allowed as long as your property is greater than 5 acres. I didn't see anything specifically about poultry or even pets. However, Sturbridge has a permissive bylaw (if it isn't listed as permitted use, it...

    Meet this Sunday to encourage pro-chicken ordinances in Rhode Island

    http://www.rilin.state.ri.us/Statutes/TITLE2/2-23/INDEX.HTM Here is a link to the RI Right to Farm Act. You do not need a rooster to have eggs, you do need hens (which are not the chickens that crow). Hens can be loud though, especially right after they lay an egg.

    Which is the best bedding to use for my baby chicks??

    I used sand and I'd definitely do it that way again. Any droppings dried right out in the sand and were easy to scoop out with a kitty litter scoop. There was never any smell or dust issue either. Also, the chicks can use the sand as grit.

    Meyer Hatchery and My Pet Chicken

    The benefits of MPC are that people who live in urban/suburban areas can order small numbers and order only pullets. For people in that market MPC provides a valuable (if costly) service.

    I know this is an old post but I did a quick search and found it. I noticed that my most recent purchase of eggs from Costco (organic, free range) looked different than normal. Usually they are just the normal light brown eggs, all the same size and color but this time there were varying...
