    Looking to add a couple new gals to our flock!

    I live in Frisco, Tx, and I’m looking for any info on buying just 2 new pullets. We already have 4 healthy, beautiful, 2 year old hens of various breeds, but most sellers have a 3-4 minimum. We can have up to 8, but that’s just too many for us right now. Any advice?! Thanks! BAKAW!

    URGENT Skinny and sickly pullets- not sure what to do

    Pullets or cockerels?

    I bought these three EE’s from our local feed store. They are a little over 3 months old and I was told they were pullets. What do y’all think?

    Feed advice for 8-10 week old pullets

    I’m getting 14 pullets in two weeks and am wondering what to feed them. They’ll range in age from 8-12 weeks old. I’ve heard to keep feeding chick feed (not layer), but what kind and for how long? Thanks

    Is this normal? Heard it’s called smut?

    Wasn’t exactly sure where to put this but I’ve seen this on another one of my buff orpington pullets but on that one’s tail feathers. The one pictured is on the wing. I think it’s what people refer to as smut but wanted another opinion(s)

    Cute Chicken Behavior!

    Today, when I was outside with my pullets, sitting in a camp chair, enjoying the flowers and sunshine, I saw my girls do the cutest thing. My black barn cat, Ella, walked over to me for some pets, and my pullets, who were out at the time, took a decided interest in her. Ella is a deadly mouser...
