Right!! Lol

Thanks. Guess if I'm gonna be hatching, its something I'll have to get used to, whether I like it or not. :(

My little one didn't make it. The intestines managed to come out, so I decided to call it quits. No need for it to suffer. My 1st chick to have to do that to. Wow. I hope not too many more!

Such a pitifully cute pic I had to share! My latest hatch has a massive herniated "umbilical cord" It seems totally fine otherwise. Walking around dragging the thing behind it!! Well it scratched it and it started bleeding and sticking to the bedding. This all I knew to do to help. I'm...

Someday... Someday. I will be able to purchase a pair!!!! They're soooo gorgeous!

Just chillin!! The 1st BO I've ever hatched!! Too cute!

So I have a question, as usual. Lol I have 6 "BO" hens. I've gotten them from various places. 2 are still pullets and lay smallish eggs, which I expect. 2 are decent sized and lay very large eggs. 1, idk if she is even laying, or she is not laying inside the coop/run. The other is laying long...

3.5 kg, that's about 7.5 lbs??

Waited for my sweety's help, but did it the way you said. MUCH easier, & I didn't feel like any of them were going to asparate it! Thanks so much for your advice! Also, I personally shouldn't have to be concerned with having poultry lice anytime soon. Was powdering then all as we caught them...

Thank You!!! I will try that with the others.

Its Safeguard day! Just treated the 1st one by myself. I'm not sure I am ready to do the rest without assistance. Lol Its not as easy as medicating a dog, and I'm afraid I'll do it wrong with them wiggling and they will asparate it!!! Think I'll wait for my sweety to get home from work!

My Buffs sure are confusing!! Lol Its been nice today, but going to be pretty cold again tonight, so I went out to plug up the heated water fountain. There sat a Buff, sleeping in the nest box. Of course, it makes me giddy thinking about one going broody, because I just started raising chicks...

She isn't setting yet. I was just thinking about it today and wondering how that worked. Lol. Thanks though. Good info for future reference.

oh wow!!! That's crazy!! LOL

Finally!! All but 1 of my 6 hens is laying! One of which has been sitting in the nest box about 4 hrs on 6 fake eggs that my kiddos had been playing with and stuck all in 1 box for some reason. Idk that she plans on staying there, but got me curious.... If she DID decide to be a broody girl, &...

Oh I know!! My sweety is always saying, "they're just stupid chickens." They r NOT STUPID, nor r they JUST CHICKENS!! I love them more than I love my dogs!!!

Oh my!! I was just out in the coop and squatted down petting on some of my girls when one of the 6 month old BOs flew up onto my shoulder!! She rode there all the way while I walked into the house to show the kids! Apparently, she thinks she's a parrot... Lol so cute!!

My 2 baby girls! They r 6 months old, I've raised them from day olds. They r sooo super sweet!! The one hanging only halfway in the box, is acting differently, starting to make me think she may be thinking about going broody!! Idk if they do that this young or not, but yesterday she was...

Lol!! Its sooo hard!! I want them ALL!! But apparently I still have too much to learn to get more.

Ok. He got Ivermectin for me, but its the paste, which I just read I cannot use anyway. He also got me some DE, so I may try that, just to maybe help their itching if nothing else, until I can get the other. I cannot get my minivan out of my driveway from the ice still, so relying on him using...
