Interesting I will look into this further.

AAAHHHH! So, I just had a baby and started back at work. So hubby has taken over more responsibility with the girls. Well...I am home this week due to an injury so I am taking over the morning routine again. Letting them out, giving then food and water, etc. Well....i go to check the food and it...

I think my plan is get a dog crate a d pu her and her clutch in it in the run. The coop isnt super big. I only have two nesting boxes.

What do you mean? I'm sleep deprived and my brain isnt functioning right XD

Is this something I could put in the run if I covered the sides?

It's been to long! I recently added a baby to our family (the human kind). Now one of my hens is broody! Our chicken acquaintance who I nicknamed my "chicken dealer" is giving us some fertile eggs tomorrow to give her. My question as s first time chicken mom is do I let her be broody in the...

Hope everyone survived the crazy snow ok! My girls are happy to finally get out of the coop and free range! ....all except baby...she is lethargic again...I brought her inside but this time she is not even interested in food or water...I have no clue what is wrong with her. No signs of...

Yeah I wasn't expecting any eggs until spring! So going put and finding them is really really exciting.

Nibbles finally used the nesting box!!!!! I was soooo excited!!!! so far she is laying 4 eggs a week. I think that is pretty good. I dont actually know how many her breed is supposed to lay. Never looked it up. She is an Orpington/Wynadotte mix.

You guys crack me up. My husband is now trying to convince me we need budgies since we cant have more chickens in our yard...this is coming from the guy who hated hated hated any and all birds before we got our chicks. If he could he would have house chickens...

I got my 3 egg today. Seems to be on an every other day schedule. But the dang girl wont say in the nesting box! How long does it usually take to figure that out? We are on day 5 now.

Sorry for your loss.

I live near Everett we didnt get very much wind but the hail was sooooooo incredibly loud it woke me up. Then last night it snowed for a few hours then turned to rain.

oh man! I am sorry to hear that! what part of the state do you live in? we just had crazy hail last night.

good to know! hahaha

I put ceramic ones in the boxes. We decided they will hang out in their coop and run for the next week so if they do decided to lay again it qojt be an egg hunt in the yard XD I dont expect anything regular at this point.

One of our girls surprised us this afternoon! I went to take a shower and when I looked outside there wasn't anything and when I came back out dressed I told my husband I was gonna go give them some scratch since they were not free ranging and I noticed what looked like an egg in the run. I told...

Happy new year guys! My girls are molting and their oin feathers on their heads makes them look like legit Raptors XD it's pretty entertaining.

Yup. They have been free ranging together for about a week now. At first they avoided each other. Then slowly they got closer. I was worried about the new hens because mine are so docile. But mine actually chase the new ones that was a jerk to the littlest away. Then in the last few days they...

Ok. So we should just make sure that we let them out at sunrise.
