From egg to chick!

Definitely a problem we all run into. Either a bachelor coop or find someone who will buy them, but you may have to give them away. Dinner is always an option, but it's not one I'm good at, so I would have to hope you are ebetter than me at that...

I couldn't. Unless we were starving. I basically hatched them myself (albeit an incubator lol) and they are my babies.

Awe, she does look quite opinionated doesn't she

She will NOT let me hold her, touch her, love her. I am only allowed to admire her.

One of my favourite qualities about her. Same Dolly, same

She seems to be decent in the pecking order too. I would say in the middle. Though she acts like she has an idgaf attitude. Showgirl for real.

Agreed. Just want them to find homes and not be stew. Or stick around as free range babies. Tons of woods and everything out here but I would have to build a bachelor area.

A bachelor coop could work. Although I would try to send off as many as possible. Sometimes sending them off to homes where they could be dinner is inevitable

You could try the bachelor flock idea. If you don't like it, then you'll have an overflow area already done for when you get too many grow outs and layers

I love those kinds of birds. They challenge you, and you have to find another way of communicating. My lovely girl Cruella is that way. She won't let me close to her. Unless she's raising chicks, then my hand full of chick feed is most welcome. I love her so much, I could talk for hours

I understand I still have all of my boys that I hatched

This one is the only one I really don't know about. I wanna say pullet? I don't see pointy feathers on the tail part? I need to get better at this ID thing

Excellent! I predict a wonderful future for her. I also suspect she'll be really competitive over Snape

She will come up to me and just stare at me. I say hey, but if I move she jumps 10 feet in the air and hauls butt.
