    Introduction

    Hello, I'm Julie and I am fairly new to chicken raising. I got my first 3 chickens a few years ago and they were from the same flock and I had no issues with them. It was simple! Then last year I moved out in the country and have since lost two. I live outside the Phoenix area, in the east...

    Hatching eggs

    is it ok to help a chick out of its shell after 24 hours he’s been trying hard but we think we might lose him as he worked all night the day before yesterday all day yesterday all night and half of today and doesn’t seem like he’s making much progress. And the humidity keeps dropping so we’re...

    anxious, over-protective 3 week old chick

    Our baby chicks are just 3 weeks old. The barred Plymouth Rock has become anxious and over protective... every time someone comes up to the cage, she flaps and jumps and tries to keep us away from the other 4 chicks. We only hold them about once a day and there's no reason for her to feel...
