    Is anyone here interested in a small flock of bantam Cochins? I've decided to go a different route and stay with standard sized birds. 2 Mille fleur Roos, a Mille hen, a partridge hen and 2 white frizzle hens. Can go all together or in 2 trios

    Does anyone that uses nipple waterers have a bird to sell? Or tips for convincing my girls to use them? I got a nipple waterer so they can have clean, fresh water and so when I am out of town for a couple days I know they won't run out. But I'm having trouble teaching them to use it. People say...

    I have a corgi x heeler that won't look twice at a chicken (even if his naughty heeler sister is trying to herd them) I'm not sure it's entirely typical but he was the easiest dog to train I've ever had, he hates being in trouble. I think cattle dogs are pretty smart and if you put the effort in...

    Hey guys! I'm looking for a couple pullets. Looking for 4 months to a year old. I gave my husbands grandmother some of my laying hens to get her flock started and now I need a couple to replace them. I will be very cautious as I have bought chickens before both privately and at auction that were...

    Ok plant experts! My bell peppers have bugs, I've had mixed responses on how to get rid of them. Does diatomaceous earth work? Also I saw talk of trimming tomatoes. This is my first year with a garden, how big should I let them get before I trim? They are over the 3ft tomato cages now but not...

    Anyone interested in guinea eggs? I thought I had cleared out the nests but found another clutch and guineas are still laying in the other areas. Think I have 3-5 dozen very fresh and another couple dozen of unverifiable age

    I guess I should specify. I'm in north Edmond. These would be extremely cheap or free. There's a lot of them there. I'm gonna try a handful in my little incubator but there are hundreds of eggs.

    I'm doing chores for a friend while she's out of town and she told me yesterday that she's overrun with guinea eggs and doesn't know what to do with them all. She would usually hatch them but she's going to be gone for about a month. Anyone interested? There's about 5 clutches like this and she...

    Some of you may remember Laverne and Shirley, my battered up old frizzle Cochin hens. Well they both go broody at the drop of a hat, or egg as it is. If I miss collection for a day or 2 either one or both will not come out for range time. I generally shoo them out and collect the eggs but as...

    What did you decide on and why? :) I love hearing about the reasons people got their birds but it makes me want more!

    This is a frizzle Cochin bantam. Much more common than the standards. I would love to see a standard frizzle Cochin!

    This poor chick is having a rough start. She pipped late on day 21 and started her zip hole early on day 22 but was shrink wrapped and stalled out. I helped just a bit and left her while I went to work. Well she made it out but she's a mess :( I'm wrapping her in moist paper towel to try to get...

    I ordered eggs from 2 different sources for diversity. I've wanted to work with the fun colored Cochins for a long time but I just recently finally made the room and I am so excited to see the colorful little fluffy butts :) I'm hoping for lots of milles!
