Hi, I have searched the posts, looking for detailed designs for a large chicken coop made of recycled wooden pallets. Maybe it's me, but I couldn't find any. Does anyone have any detailed plans to make a LARGE coop with wooden pallets? I am an artist and window cleaner by trade. Definitely not...

I only have around half an acre and get over-run with silkies way too fast. That's why I sell them. I've got another one that I'm not sure about at all. It's a buff with no beard. I haven't a clue. I've had silkie "hens" that crow.

Can anyone help me determining the sex of these silkies? The black ones are four months. The buff is around five. The first picture is black splash. I think a hen, but not sure. The next three pictures are of the same chicken. I think she is a hen. The last one, I'm pretty sure is a...

Day 23 now on my serama eggs underneath my broody silkie. I just did a float test. They all floated very well. Some wiggled and I can hear one of them chirping inside. I guess these are all good signs, right? How long will it take for a chick to hatch after it starts chirping?

Thanks for the help. I didn't feel right about taking the chicks away.

I have a Cochin that hatched two chicks. They are a week old and I'm ready to get her sitting on some eggs again. How long before I take the chicks from her? I have a friend that wants them. Also, how long before she'll sit again?

I just got started on hatching eggs. My black cochin is a great mother and just hatched two standard sized eggs. (She started with five but had a few problems along the way.) My white silkie is also broody so I got some eggs for her. I got 7 serama eggs, which are 1/5 the size of a regular...
