    My first hatching! Had a tragedy with the 3rd egg and our cat getting to the incubator. Woke up at 2:30 am to the sound of chirping to find the bator on the ground, one chick out, one in shell chirping and one egg ( needed at least another day of development) smashed. We have 2 very active...

    So excited! First hatching ever and I've got 3 of my 4 eggs with some "wiggles" in them! The 4th was a dud but for my first hatching I'm happy with the ratio. Also does anyone want to buy my evil rooster? He's a gorgeous Sumatra Roo with 2 crooked toes ( happened as a chick ) and I just don't...

    Got a good surprise yesterday when I discovered our Sumatra hen is actually a rooster! And that we have a breeding pair of Golden Campines! We ordered ours from Meyers back in Feb as the rare breed assortment and they are just now reaching the age of being able to look and see what they are...

    Pig is on the list of animals we want but finding one we can afford is proving hard. Prices are so high for animals right now! I'm sick with the prices of bottle baby goats and sheep.

    King or Rat snake ( unsure as to which it is) harmful to chickens? Discovered what I estimated to be a 5ft long 1.5 round black snake on a dirt pile we have in the future goat pasture and need to know about it and my chickens. I want it to stay around if it's harmless because it's eating the...

    I don't but I can get one. We are still working on interior. Got to add more structural support and nesting boxes. Right now it's just roosts. But all in all, it's a great little coop and our flock seems happy with it.

    Our biddies got fresh air yesterday when they were let into the new yard DH made them. I grabbed my Sumatra hen for a quick photo but my Ancona ( named Peckerhead ) got jealous and wanted to be held too. Didn't get a photo of that though. Would love to get a Sumatra roo and a Blue Splash Maran...

    I am selling my 2 Golden Campines and 4 Buff Brahma Bantams. $ 10 each. They were about 8 weeks old now. They originally came from Meyer's Hatchery.

    Anyone interested in 2 Golden Campines? We believe they are pullets.They are just too flighty for us.

    Really! Oh boy! What breed? We are wanting hair sheep because sheering isn't on my list of activities I'm looking to do. We just found a nice farm to get some goats from near Murfreesboro.

    I've thought about rabbits but still on the fence. We're getting our chicks in 2 weeks which is exciting and looking to add more in May, turkeys and geese then. Also want a calf, 2 goats or 2 sheep and of course a piglet.

    Morning! Just wanted to say that come February we are once again a chicken family! Placed an order months ago for next month from Meyer's. Ordered 2 roos and 13 pullets from the rare breed assortment and 5 of the Leann's adopt me assortment. That is the one I'm most excited for ( I love...

    I think it'll be really good for my kids to see where the turkey they ate last night comes from but after seeing it myself, I thought it'd be a better learning experience to raise our own. We want 2 toms and a hen.

    Are you in a huge rush to sell them? We are still in the process of moving to our new house and need to get settled and erect a temp pen for the chickens before we bring any home. I wasn't actually expecting anyone nearby to have the Favs as they're not that common, at least they weren't back in...
