one of my girls laid a large egg!

yes! some Whiting true blues and greens from McMurray in ... May I think. I'm checking frequently to try to bump more order up earlier.

foghorn + 2 speckled hens + 4 hens speckles + Henrietta avary + Moonflower + 5 pullets snowflake + 4 pullets + 1 hen momma + 5 nine-week-old chicks broody + 2 one-week-old chicks 10 three-week-old chicks

figured I'd do an update I sold a ton of POL pullets but have hopefully kept enough to keep me happy on eggs My boys might start fighting but fingers crossed that they don't I hatched 4 eggs from the nest that was in the horse pasture where something killed the broody. sold 2, gave 2 to a...

@Chicken I finished! if I can do it, so can you! the peachicks definitely had worms so that was worth it but idk about the chickens haha I mean it's not bad just money & effort but good to not worry about them this also means the peachicks are loose now! does a chick need grit if it eats...

okay worming is done I think

I have placed the ladder for tonight! hopefully I can get 3 of the ones I didnt get last night. (and then theyd just get one day past when I stop everyone else)

I have dealt with some type of prolapse in newly hatched chicks

I'm enjoying talking to yall about my birds!

so I was using a kitchen scale that went up to 2k grams the best part was I put the chicken on it, made them sit down, turned off the light, removed my hands, turned the light back on and read the scale number before they could reorient.

yeah, I got really frustrated because the bathroom scale refused to read on the dirt floor and them refused to read on the concrete driveway, probably because our land isnt flat. it freaked me out because i thought I broke it. it was giving me all sorts of crazy numbers, saying I was 70lbs when...

@CHlCKEN come do it for me okay? you worm my 37 birds and I'll worm your... presumably way more reasonable number.

@CHlCKEN I weighed one pullet and one cockrell and they were roughly 4lbs so I just did 1mL each bird 2 of my roos are bigger but the scale doesnt go that high so I gave one of them 1.25mL and the other one didnt get any because hes high in a tree and his spurs are super long - granted I think...

I dont understand re: pasty butt it looks like stress and incorrect brooder temps are the biggest causes? though I see feed and bedding as well. I hatch my own eggs so no shipping stress. brooder temp is pretty easy if you just watch chick behavior & some are raised by mom which is even...

. safeguard for goats 10% solution .23mL/lb orally once a day for 5 days though I have so many dang chickens that I'll need to buy another bottle to finish the 5 days D: 14 days egg withdrawal though some people eat the eggs anyway lol

what causes it?

current chicken math count side coop: 5 ladies main coop: 16 ladies 2 males 1 lady + 5 chicks trees: 10 ladies 2 males 1 psycho inside: 10 chicks 14 eggs = 37 adults, 15 babens
