OMG glad to know I am not the only crazy chicken & duck lover, my duck loves to be in the house swim in the tub and sit on her pee pad watching tv with the rest of the family!!

So adorable! What breed are they?

Welcome KBgirls! How many inside chickens/ducks do you have? I only have one chicken and one duck inside right now, I'd love more but my father would kill me! Haha!

I'm on my way to raising up a house chicken! Standard white cochin hen! With any luck, she'll hatch today and be with me by the end of the week! Her name will be Pepper.

She's going to have an indoor coop but she'll be out most of the day diapered. I'd rather potty train her, but I'm far more tolerant of accidents than my boyfriend

She'd also be coop-free if we didn't have a cat. He'll just need to get his butt kicked once by a chicken that weighs as much as he does and he'll never want to mess with her again, and we do keep claw caps on him, but he's very licky. Cat saliva is too dangerous to everything avian for me to want to risk them being in close proximity without supervision.

Still, she's going to spend most of her time out and about. She won't have any other chicken friends for several more months, but we fully intend to socialize with her and take the place of her flock to keep her from being lonely. Then I suppose it'll be up to her - if she prefers us over the new backyard hens, she'll be welcome to stay a house chicken!

Hi Skink,
just wanted to say that i have two white cochin named Fath and Hope, aand love them dearly. My Gold Laced Cochin hen is Pepper. So if you need someone to mentor you I would be more than happy too. I kinda feel it is fate. Safe vibes to you and your chickens. I loveall of mine.

It's Sunni's first birthday on Tuesday. I can't believe how fast time has gone! I also can't believe that she has been living in the house for six months already. Time just goes by so fast.

It's reminding me that I need to enjoy every moment of it.

Wow! Tell her I said happy early birthday!


Guess what guys? I got two (outside) chickens today! Speckles is the Silver Laced Wyandotte, and Blu is the Rhode Island Red!

I told her, and she started "talking" to me. I'm sure she says thank you. Your new hens are beautiful!! Where did you get them from?

Thanks! There was an ad on a Maine poultry group, someone was getting rid of all of their chickens and four of the older hens were free because they weren't laying as much. She said if we get all four we have to take a rooster, so we only got two for now, my mom said maybe we will get a Buff Orpington tomorrow! I hope so!
