Checking-In On Peeps - Post Here To Say Hello!

[ronott1]

After a neighbors dog killed 19 chickens in 5 hours about 2 yrs ago, I quit chickens for awhile. My partner brought home 4 laying hens,Then a full grown rooster, then 3 more chicks, I'm back in chickens again.

I am sorry that you lost the first flock!

Dogs can be terrible predators.

Congratultions on the new flock!

Hello everyone

I missed posting on these forums. So grateful it seems to still be active.

Can't wait to join the conversation again.

I haven't raised chickens in a while but I plan to get back into it in the next couple years.

My favorite breed is Ameraucana.

My interests include coop design and plumage genetics.

Thanks for having me!

It sounds like you are doing great with your Flock!

Yeah I and another one they got really busy. I’m raising some baby chicks now. Two birthdates 2 babies just yesterday and one two weeks ago 5 babies.

Congratulations on the new babies!

I am that way with Quail. I enjoyed them and hope to get back to them soon. It might be a good retirement project for me.

Glad to see this forum and people porting.
I to had gotten busy but still have my flock. Also, I was havig trouble staying logged in or replying and got frustrated. Maybe the kinks are worked out! Hens have changed a bit. Preditors had gotten to quite a few hens and a couple of roosters. I have way too many roosters and looking to rehome. Also trying to incubate and build my flock back up. And in doing so, I had hen(s) go broody and that has never happened. Trying to read up on how to manage the broody hens.
