May be mold then. That sucks. Or the vibe. Either way the gut knows. i'm sorry you lost them. My first flock got taken out by coons. They hunt in packs when teaching the babies....only thing i had left was my lonely roo for months. (And the camper coop idea)

Does anyone have bantam partridge wyandottes? I have 2, 7 month old roosters and would like to trade one for an unrelated one.

What is a good idea for a dust bath when I have a tractor coop? I plan on putting up temporary fencing every time I move the coop, so they can part-time free range. Could I fill a baby pool with dirt for dust baths? Has anyone else done this?

A large plastic dishpan would be large enough and be much easier to deal with when moving your tractor.

Hello, I have been trying for a few months to re home my laying hens and the weather has conspired against me. I had 5, and one passed due to the cold. I need to find a proper home for them where they can do what they do best....lay gorgeous eggs!
I have 2 Americana and 2 Gold Crested Polish. They have become very attached to each other since our Mamma Hen passed, so they need to go together and stay together.

I live in Garden City, about 6 miles north of 94 & 6 miles west of 275. I can meet you or bring them to you, but I need to know they are safe and warm.

I'm sorry if I've blasted the site with my screwy posts. I cannot get this to cooperate and it's driving me crazy.

Sorry to hear of all the ER visits and accidents! No making sense of laws and who profits as a "victim" unfortunately.

Congrat's Silly, I am waiting to see the "one year" here if they do that sort of thing

.

LadyR, love the color pallet of eggs! Hope we can think of something to trade as DH on a whim decided we needed an incubator yesterday afternoon

. We have seafoam green EE colors right now. We are waiting for our Ameraucana to start laying those pretty blue ones, but so far nothing

. We are near Lansing so able to get to the West side easy for hatching egg trades.We are looking to add a couple/three Maran's for those dark brown eggs to our colors...hatching eggs most likely.

More entertaining that TV - my grandson just loves to sit and watch the chicks. And he named them all, too

I am not good at responding to all, but know you are in my thoughts. I transcript court sessions for another state, and not sure what is better - no fault, or being able to sue and have lawyers rake in the big bucks.
