I also like to communicate with other people, so I'd be happy to chat with you. I live alone, so I spend a lot of time on the Internet. I've read a lot about growing, so...

    New to Chickens - Need help IDing Roo

    Hello, I'm brand new to raising chickens. We live in the city so roos aren't allowed. We got 1 buff orpington and 2 silkies from a feed supply store who gets them from a hatchery. I'm pretty sure this is a rooster. 10 -11 weeks old. But now I'm a little attached 😅 so it will be hard to give...

    Is this coop worthless??

    We bought this coop and we’re supposed to pick it up tomorrow. It was advertised to hold 4-5 hens, we planned on having 3-4. The more I look around online, the more I’m thinking this coop is horrible. It’s about 4x4 ft, but that includes the nesting boxes. And the roosts are practically on the...
