    Not an expert, but I would say they are on the smaller side. I'll just keep rolling and see what happens. Thanks!

    One of our hens has started laying. Nice, small to medium sized brown eggs. 1 per day since Sunday. I'm hoping my other girls aren't too far behind and we can have a nice celebration breakfast!! Since I'm new to this...will the eggs get any larger, or is this the size she will lay?

    Hahaah....yeah, I feed them with a hanging feeder inside the coop. No neighbors are eating their goodies.

    Another rainy day in the piedmont this morning. My girls are eating me out of house and home these days. My untrained (lack of) knowledge tells me they are stocking up on nutrients to start laying! Stay dry all!

    We saw those Moss, and contacted them but no one has gotten back to us. So I thought I would ask here in case anyone was selling.

    Good morning all! I'm pleased to announce that after 7 days on the lamb, our "free range" chicken was placed back in the coop with her "sisters" Saturday morning. My wife would like to add a few more girls to our flock. If anyone has Silver or Gold laced Wyandotte's, we're in the market. She...

    So we have an "Escapee". I haven't finished building the run for our chickens yet, and as such when I feed the chickens each day I let them run around the yard for an hour or so while I'm doing my daily tasks. Over the weekend, one of our Americaunas decided she didn't want to be put back in the...

    Quick question....when I went out to feed the chickens yesterday I noticed that their food wasn't gone. Typically, the feeder is empty. I'm sure some of it has to do with the fact that I have switched them over to Layena (although after reading the article on the front page last week, I'm going...

    We spent the holiday weekend in WV, and those 52 degree mornings spoiled me!

    Yeah, I got that JT. Hahaha. Mainly what I was asking was best methods. Is there something better than a modified 5 gallon bucket with nipples? (other than 2, 5 gallon buckets)

    My chickens make a mess of their water....and food. I blame myself as the feeder is a hanging one that I have yet to hang. It's also undersized as they are now just about full grown chickens and no longer chicks. We are adding the run to the coop this weekend, so it will be a good time for...

    Weather wasn't as bad as expected here. My rain gauge showed a total of 1.89 inches since yesterday morning. The girls were happy and dry this morning, but disinterested in my visit. I guess they have hit the "teenage" years, and it's no longer "Cool" to hang out with Dad anymore.

    My girls seem to be just fine in their coop. I placed it in a shady spot by the woods line, about halfway down the hill of a back yard that we have. I don't have a thermometer in there just yet, but just going down to visit with them each day seems to be about 10 degrees cooler than everywhere...
