I didn't know for sure, but I think this is the winner.......... Quote: The only one we knew for sure was the lightest one being from the BO (especially because we only have one BO and we have multiples) because that was way later and she was the only one in the coop. Thank you, everyone...

Look! Our first eggs! Which egg came from which breed? We have a buff orp, production reds, and barred rocks Exciting!

Quote: WooHoo!! Can't wait for that to happen here, still going through the bedtime ordeal every night. It'll happen! I couldn't imagine it happening with ours but then...voila

Thank you! Yes, so far things have been working out great. And do you want to HEAR what my hubby said a couple of days ago??? brace yourselves... "I think we might need a few more. I mean, we've got the space" Hahahaaaaa!!!!

Our 7 week old chicks started sleeping out in their (zero dollar) coop one week ago today. Every night we've had to round them up and show them how to go up the ramp to bed. Well tonight I went out there and (drumroll please!!!!) all eight of them were sittin' pretty on their perches, snuggled...

Quote: We got them 6 weeks ago today from TSC and they were brand new, so I'm guessing a tiny bit, but it's pretty close. Is there something different you can tell at 6 or 8 weeks?

Our 7 week old birds have a HUGE fenced area all to themselves and have been out there for almost a week. Up until this morning, they stayed in the same 4x4 square. We were so excited to look out earlier today and see them chattering together 15 feet away from the coop. Woo hoo! They're real...

Our chicks are 7 weeks old and we've got two Buff Orps (think one may be a cockerel and one a pullet, but still not sure yet...) They are both so sweet and docile!

Thanks guys. "He" is super friendly and outgoing, but not aggressive. Yet. Hopefully he stays that way and we can keep him

Hello Chicken Masters! We have two seven-week-old Buff Orpington chicks and although neither of them has tried to crow yet, one of them does have a substantially larger comb already. I'm starting to thing "he" is a roo and the other one is a pullet, but I just don't know enough to really...

I would agree with posters who say it's the training not the breed that will decide if the dog coexists with the chickens. We have three australian shepherds and the two that we raised from puppies are very respectful and the one one we didn't is a bit of a....turd. Our chicks are also 6 weeks...

Quote: Love it! Yes, we won't be finished making it pretty today, but my hubby insists they'll be sleeping in there tonight. Thank God it's still light at 9:30 p.m.

I'm super excited! The chick(en)s are out in the woods with my big girls right now and they are SOOOO happy. Warm, sunny day already and it's not eve 11 a.m. yet. Woo hoo!

Well, the "chicks"... Wait. Who are we kidding? They're chickens. Miniature 6 week old chickens. Poultry. With feathers. And lots of poop. The feathered pooping poultry have taken over the workshop. They've covered the scroll saw in their precious droppings. They greet me in the...

Quote: Well my husband ALREADY thinks I'm nuts. Why not just run with it???

Luke13:34 : I do hope you stayed up and sang to them all night. Chickies are very fragile and MUST have songs sung to them all night long for the first week in the coop. Also, on the first morning in the coop you must bring them a whole watermellon and a box of raisins. (in case...
