LGBTQ+ Poultry Keepers

You changed your picture!

I did! It's a boy and girl pair from my first hatch of the season (These black sex links are so darn cute). And I entered it into the chick photo contest. Haven't entered anything else, but we'll see how we do!

I'll probably stick them in the basement for winter (stays between 40 and 55F usually) if I keep them. Can they have a lid on if I do that, or do they still need light/airflow when sleeping?

If you go with a lid, make sure the soil is dry so it doesn't induce rot. I don't know off the top of my head if they need to freeze or not, though.

Okay. I could probably punch a few holes in the lid too. But if it has a lid, I can at least stack light stuff on them so they don't take up quite as much room as if they had no lid

A, too far away anyways and B, Mareks. Chickens that come to /hatch on the property don't leave

I was joking anyways. But that does make a whole lot of sense.

I need name suggestions for these two. Preferably nature-based, but nothing too obscure (customers will be mostly little old ladies). Ribbon doesn't matter, it's just to hold the batt together, it's not part of the theme.

Does she have babies? I had a surprise last night, bent down to see why a hen was where she was and she about hit my face because I was apparently trying to hurt her babies.


So.... yeah. I got babies.... yay

Nope. She's been laying everyday

You use them to spin yarn
