man, that's a huge bummer! I had a broody once and out of 18 eggs she only hatched 2. She broke 2 also. I didn't consider if she ate them. I'm right there with you! I tried incubating before and failed miserably every time. It's a huge bummer. Then I read all these success stories and I'm so...

Well that's good! I'm glad you found a solution. It's so hard to lose chickens. I take personal offense when they get taken by a predator.

My goodness you poor thing! How frustrating! I can't believe you're still losing birds! Can you fence the woods so they can't go in there? I wish you were closer, I would loan you my Pyrenees. We lost one bird while she was being trained, she was just a pup and the silly bird flew out of her...

society is doomed lol I have a 10th grade education and a GED and I can trump lawyers and doctors with my vocabulary. It's sickening. Half your brain tied behind your back-hilarious!!!! I know aren't they gorgeous?! I am so thrilled I can hardly wait! I'm good, at little man's beck and call day...

That's quite the commitment! I'm impressed! I am not very scholarly... I couldn't do that lol. Smart to enroll in the same courses to share books! I am so jealous! I want a broody! I'm actually hoping my Orps are true to the breed and go broody right after they start laying. I want more chicks...

They haven't laid yet, still eating and the boys are romancing them but no eggs lol. Orps tend to lay late. What kind of courses did you get signed up for?

Wow! sounds like a lot has been going on lately! I hope you don't have any losses from here on out! Hope you get a broody. I'm waiting on my girls to stay laying. They are acting like they want to raise my chicks but aren't laying yet.

So glad they're recovering!!!!

Tractor supply said they were over a week. I've had them two weeks. So about a month old... they're getting free choice food but they run run run it all off lol I might have to buy them a tractor or build a coop with a roof over the run lol.

Yeah I think home should be comfy and homey not uncomfortably clean lol as long as it's pretty much uncluttered I'm good. These were supposed to be cornish that we were going to eat lol but they never really grew and got those crazy tails and never calmed down. They're like tiny little full...

Yeah he's a better house keeper than I am so he goes above and beyond. He's OCD lol I'm just like 'meh it looks better than it was' lol he's missing my elaborate dinners lol I've been making simple and quick meals or even frozen pizza lol this weekend was dedicated to cleaning up the barn, brush...

Doing well... carpal tunnel is horrible. Doctor assures me it will get better after the baby is born. Can't wait for May! I'm done being preggers lol I can't do any house work and poor mister is running around like a... chicken with its head cut off... trying to keep up with his full time job...

I'm sorry I'm not much help! I also gave them corid in the water so the stress of his injury didn't bring on a cocci outbreak....

Gosh I have no idea! I'm sorry! Would love to help but I'm a chicken newbie and I don't know what to do. Super glue sounds good. I have treated older birds with exposed muscle with blukote with great results...

He came this way and I thank my lucky stars to have him. I've met a lot of losers in my time. He is so efficient, engineering and best of all supportive. He loves to make me happy and I just do my best to return the favor. Being preggers I am pretty much stuck in the kitchen when it comes to...

I can hardly get anything done, hubby does it all before I get a chance lol but I enjoy walking the land and I maintain the animals at least. I just made chicken and dumplings casserole the other day. Yum!

I made onion infused ranch burgers and homemade onion rings for dinner last night. It's relatively cheap. The breading is just flour, cornstarch and whatever seasonings you like with egg to dredge the onions in. One large onion will make 2 or 3 servings and it's a great way to burn through...

Jo-jos are just like french fries except they are wedges and the skin is left on. I am addicted to home made onion rings. Lucky you having help in the kitchen! I hope everyone stays happy and healthy! I love following your thread! Thanks for following mine also!

Awe, sad! I hope they stop dying! Chicken and dumplings sounds delish! I made fried chicken, jo-jos and onion rings from scratch for dinner. My back is killing me but it sure was yummy!

What a great thread! I look forward to reading more! Your birds are lovely!
