Hello BYC community,
I have 12 hens (assorted colors, mostly brown eggs, 1 white egg layer, 1 green egg layer) that need a good home, still getting 8 eggs/day, all in good health. We are moving and we cant take them with us. Please email me at [email protected], to contact me.
We are moving and unfortunately cannot take our lovelies. We have 3 backyard hens named Terry, Jackie and Ruby.
They're great egg layers, we get more eggs than we know what to do with. Terry is is light red hen, Ruby is dark red hen and Terry is the black hen. They are sweethearts and a lot of...
So my group of bantams (10, mixed breeds) have just started laying and it’s utter chaos. I’ve got a mature buff orp who is routinely laying in a nest box. The bantams are very sporadic about their laying spots. Two of them only lay in the run (one in a food container, the other straight on the...

I'm looking to add two new chickens to my flock. I currently have two Golden laced Wyandotte a little over a year old and one Isa brown about 7 months. I was thinking about adding a Buff orphington and possibly a speckeled susuex, Americauna, Araucauna or Welsummer. What would be a docile...
Hi I am looking to possibly add a new member to my small flock and I am thinking about Bantam. What is the the best layer breed with no feet feathers and come with a gender? Thanks for the help.
I have three hens, all old enough to be egg layers. One of mine, I think a golden sexlink (she was a stray that didn't leave so I kept her and got her friends), started molting around October. She continued laying regular strong eggs. I live in Albuquerque and we have had a very mild winter...

Hello, everyone!
I am looking to get another chicken, but I am in the city area. That means I need a chicken that is Quiet. I also need a chicken breed that is a pretty decent Egg Layer, preferably brown eggs. That was my families compromise :rolleyes:. And last but not least, I need them to be...
It brakes my heart but I have to part with my flock. I have accepted a job in the city which will not allow me time to care for my flock, and my family is not able to assist either.
My flock is very well taken care off, everything can go with them, except for the shed.
If interested...
We are coming in to 6 new girls for our flock. Complete stranger chickens. Not ones from a friend... not ones we know an accurate ANY history on. So far, the current *owner* THINKS they are around 2 years old. Tomorrow I will post pics so, hopefully, their ages and breeds can be fully...

I have a couple eggs today that have a light brown chunk or two in them.
Is this undigested food? It is not solid when I smashed it on a paper towel.
I have recently switched to egg maker pellets mixed 50/50 with crumbles. WAS ONLY CRUMBLE.
Never had chunks in the yokes before the diet change...

Hello. I'm looking to getting (building) a chicken coop for 6-10 hens. Open to all advice on which type of hens for best eggs & least amount of noise that are sociable. Also what size of indoor coop & outside run will I need. Best material to use to keep rodents & predators out!
Thanks! So...
