Now they are even underneath the lilac bush with the adults!
 
I have a silly question: Will these girls always poop on me? All 6 chicks enjoy having cuddling time with me now. Some of them are long-time cuddlers. So I get pooped on all the time! They seem poop less when they grow up, especially Molly the OE hasn't done it for a long time. Will they eventually be able to hold their poops? Or I'll always get some "warm surprises"?
Interesting question , I
may never find out as my 4 week olds that hateto be held ,they will eat out of our hands, we can sometimes pet them when they eat ,but try to pick them up and it is game on. I am curious to see the answer u get.

They will change. Molly was skittish chick at beginning, now she always flys to my shoulder and perch there forever. She loves attention and becomes very calm. Actually, all my chicks like to be peted now, and I can hold everyone for at least a short time whenever I want.

I was waiting for showmanship once with one of my really good friends 4H. She used to use a New Hampshire bantam hen (Pumpkin). She used for every showmanship. This bird is 3 years old, goes to multiple shows a year, gets handled on a daily basis and even occasionally spends chilly nights in the house. I'm sitting there talking to her and all of the sudden Pumpkin decides this is the opportune time to fire a liquid crap right on her lap. Luckily, nothing got on her white lab coat. But it does go to show :lol: they go when and where they want to go! I've been pooped on a hundred times, it just becomes routine eventually

Ya I know it just gets annoying trying to get the thing I between the words and letters. To add or fix that stuff on my iPad mini 4 it old be a lot easier on a full sized iPad


I've never had an iPad, but I did have a 4th gen touch for many years. Used it regularly, always had problems. I switched to Samsung products 2 years ago, never going back!
 
Why would my hen stop laying? I have a youngish pullet (PA black from dhheltzel last fall) that just started laying in Feb and she is very regular. We know b/c she lays a light green egg. For about a week , no green egg. She seems healthy, active, eating , drinking, out in the run like normal, but no egg? No changes that I can think of. Abdomen seems soft w/o any hard bumps or anything that would make me think she is egg bound. Wormed early Feb, so don't think it could be a worm problem. Ideas?
 
Well one of my chickens just died coughing up blood does anyone know what it could have been or if it's contagious I would hate to lose anymore she was one of my favorites to
sorry to hear that. :( I hate when chickens die. we separated one of our SLW last week and hoping she gets better, but not looking real good. Don't know what's wrong, but she's not eating or drinking much. Not real active. Still very red wattle and comb, but a swelled eye on the one side. Any ideas on what she may be suffering from?
