Wow! So. many. chickens! I had never heard of either of these sites! Thanks so much for sharing!

This does seem to be the issue! :lol: And wow, what a resource! Thanks!

Thanks for the tips! I will check out the chick selector. Have you ordered from Mcmurray? If so, did it go well? I will check out the Ohio thread! Didn't know it existed - thanks!

I'm in garden zone 5b/6a if that says anything, but definitely a risk for frostbite on a regular basis (between the tropical warm days :D). My intent with the bielefelders and orpingtons especially was to have cold-hardy, dual purpose, and fairly docile birds and with the exception of the boys...

I'm not 100% sure, as I would like to be, what to do about my boy Nugget and his new aggressive tendencies. He's always been a favorite even though he's often growling and has had strong characteristics of a cockerel even when he was little. He was crowing and surverying his kingdom at...
