Thanks for the Welcome everyone.



ChukarNoob: Thank You for the Location of Premier Farm and Home.
I plan on making it as long as the boss doesn't change my plans.
 
Premier is a good place to pick up DE, too. When I got it last summer it was 50# for about $30, and it is the good stuff. Food grade "shell flour."

(usual disclaimer -- no financial connection with Premier except as a satisfied customer)

For about a week now I have been letting my banties, giunea, ducks out to free range well I also have two Chukar that are in the same pen. I had gotten to the piont that I was done with the Chukar. I open the door for all of them to run around. The Chukar follow all the birds in and out of the pen. Kinda funny too, because everyone said they will not come back. ..... Well they do...lol

Has anyone else done this, and if so how long did the Chukar keep returning to there pen?

Welcome! This website will teach you a lot! I am from SW Wichita and have a small flock of 5 girls. They are just starting to lay and one girl who has only been laying for 2 weeks is already broody. She is sitting on golf balls because I don't want any chicks right now. Anyway, I hope you decide to get your flock started soon. Chickens are addictive!
 
OK, My girls are nearly four months old now so I figure they may start laying soon. I opened up the nesting box for them to get use to it. I have aspen shavings in the roosting area and put hay in for the nest. I figured nature would take over the they would learn to nest. Here is the first day result.

They threw the hay out!

It's a little bigger than the other two. Comb is larger and it has some iridescent feathers. Slightly longer and curling tail feathers. And today I saw it trying to jump on the back of one of the other two. Anyone looking for a young americana cockerel? It has to go before it starts crowing!
