Hello my kindly and knowlegeable chickeners:
My partner and I are looking to move from Tallahassee, FL to a few possible states- namely PA, KY, WV, MI and possible MN. We are looking for 10-50 acres, rural but close enough (within 1hr) to a decent sized town with hospitals (I work in the...
Thank you to everyone for your wonderful advice. I was discussing this with my non-chicken SO and he was skeptical that this was a good idea.
I really started to second guess this idea also when my hens were WAY too interested in what I was holding when I did collect the eggs.
Thank you also to...
Hello everyone and sorry to have been away so long!
I have a quick question about whether I should or not be feeding older (3-4day old) eggs broken up to my hens.
They really like to drink them up and I really hate to see the eggs go to waste. My dog also partakes in the feast.

Hello? Someone at the door?
Not ON, UNDER!
Hold still! (Bosco loves cleaning any small creature's butt...ew)
High steppin'...I'm outta here!
Definitely a Speckled sussex
Lucky you ended up with 3 hens out of 3!?

Congrats
What IS bored.....what does it mean??

lol
Silkies are not homely, they make us humble with their beauty
I for one think he is cuddly cute and looks like a new breed of silk....rumpless!
I just wanted to add....I didn't realize he was so small until I looked at him compared to the hose...is he a partridge? What stock is he from?
