    Welcome! NC egg laws can be found here: http://www.ncagr.gov/fooddrug/food/egglaw.htm Basically, you can sell ungraded/ unsized eggs from your home as long as you aren't selling more than 30dz/ week. Cartons should be labeled with your name, address, and the fact that the eggs are not sized or...

    Handsome rooster! How long did it take your hens to start laying? Mine were growing up while the days were getting shorter (most hatched in June) and they didn't start laying until Jan/ feb. I hatched a few back in November and I'm curious to see if they start laying faster.

    I prefer the blues but hatch all the BBS variations. I also have a mixed pen with Easter eggers, olive eggers, and marans for colorful eggs. I also have a few australorps, a couple Silkies, and some random mixed breeds running around. I'm finally getting some ameraucanas this year to replace...

    Probably best to start by raising it higher first. I'm not sure how feathered out they are. I use heat plates for chicks and usually brood outside which may mean that mine are better adapted to cold by that age. Just go slow so that they have time to adjust.

    I would start by weaning them off the 250w heat lamp. If they are inside, just turn it off and keep an eye on them to see how they do. Once they have adjusted to that, start taking them outside during the day and then bringing them in at night if it's too cold. Once they are feathered out, they...

    Yep! That was me! I ended up keeping 3 of his brothers- 1 blue, 1 black, and 1 splash. They are all about 3 months younger than yours though.

    The TSC in Vass has a great staff. Folks there are really nice and helpful. They sell out of chicks fast when they get them in though.

    I did! I ordered 10 of the silver ams and the rest will be an assortment. It will be exciting to see what I get.

    I placed my first order for chicks. I've only ever bought hatching eggs and chicks locally so this is all new for me. I've been dying to get some silver ameraucanas though so I'm really really excited! :)

    I would hate to be guilty by association. LOL. She can be a bit of a trouble maker and probably would not have any nice things to say about me.

    Yeah! Rockingham isn't too far. My husband has an aunt that lives there. We go down there once in awhile for a visit. Looks good! I bet they love it.. and it has to be a relief to have them out of the garage :)

    Definitely catch him and at least get him a rabies vaccine. Around here, rabies vaccines cost about $7 at the vet or you can get them done for $5 at animal control. It is definitely worth the money for his health and your peace of mind if anyone is bitten or scratches again.

    I use Blu-Kote on wounds. They sell it at TSC. It might take her a couple days to get over the shock. Hopefully it's nothing major. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help.
