    All of my babies fared well through the storm. We got water in the cellar, and our sump pump burned out, so I went out to Lowes to get a new one. On the way home, a tree fell in the road RIGHT in front of my car, bounced up, taking the front of my car with it. A nice man stopped and moved one...

    Is your coop off the ground? If not, make sure its not in an area that could flood. Also, check to make sure that doors & windows in the coop are securely fastened or latched. Where do you keep your feed? Will it be in an area that will stay dry? I keep mine in a rubbermaid tub, but I'll...

    The clouds are going the wrong direction! I could faintly smell the ocean this morning; call me superstitious, but that usually means we're getting hit. (I'm in Central MA, BTW, 50+/- miles inland)

    Quote: FYI, there are some sensitive chicken peeps that are particular about Araucanas, Ameraucanas and Easter Eggers. In general, if you buy a hatchery "Americauna" you are buying an Easter Egger. There are true Ameraucanas (note the spelling) and true Araucanas, but you can only buy them...

    I had a BR roo, he was dropped off at the farm. He became super human aggressive, and I had to get rid of him. He had an appointment with a hatchet, but at the 11th hour, a customer of mine took him. She called me to say he's getting on well with her flock, except that she uses a plastic snow...

    I have a modern game hen cross breed (was bought as an ameraucana chick). It's 15 weeks old now, and looks male. I can bring it to townsend if someone wants it.

    Arielle- thanks for the condolences. Adozengirls- the photo looks like you have either normal sized hens with dollhouse sized coops or normal sized coops with monster hens! LOL! Sorry I don't need any right now, I have 6 15-week Ameraucanas (my "biker chicks" cuz I named them all after...

    Hi! Just found this thread. I'm in Central MA. I'm recovering from a predator attack that killed my awesome broody and my five chicks. Three were hatched in my homemade incubator and two were under the broody. I'm down to one layer, everyone else is either too young, too old, a roo, or on...
