Hello Everyone! I haven’t started chicken keeping yet but I’m here to learn all I can. My household just moved into a new house last spring with enough space to set up the small urban homestead of my dreams. We call it Peachy Keen Place. This season we are focusing on getting our vegetable...

Due to life things, I have had to move to where I can't have chickens any longer. A friend was keeping my last two, and one of them died yesterday. I hate the idea of that last lady being alone, and would love to find her a new place with company. Due to her breed and age (5 yrs), she is a...

I live near Portland Oregon, my ladies were hatched in February so everyone is feathered. How do I get ready for winter? What do they need different for the cold months? there are 7 girls, no roosters , in a good size coop and covered run. That free range during the day. What is everyone using...

We have had a happy brood of two chickens for the last four years. They have been inseparable friends. Just this week one of them appears to have a stroke, and we have removed her from the coop to keep her in isolation and see if she gets better. Fearing the worst since they are both five, we...

I want 3-4 hens of different breeds for my backyard in Portland, OR. What breeds should I get?

Hi everyone, I’m starting to seriously get ready to build a coop. I like the idea of the “Sym Coop” design from “Reinventing the Chicken Coop”. There is a link that shows pictures. http://newfactory.com/sym/ My one concern is that I bet it gets a bit colder up here in the Portland (OR) area...

I have hatched 4 beautiful Appenzeller Spitzhauben Roos. 7weeks old but will be 8 weeks by the time you get them. They were raised by a broody spitz. 100% Free ranged so they are very predator savvy. Raised on organic Scratch and Peck, they come when called and have been handled by kids...

I live in the city of Portland, OR, and one of the chicks that I just bought a few months back turned out to be a boy, so I need to find him a new home outside of town. We are unable to keep roosters in the city, so I'm looking for a good home for him, rather than a dinner plate. If you are...
