We bought 6 hens and 1 rooster (no idea what kind they are) three days ago. How long until they lay? And what am I supposed to feeding them? and is straw enough for nests or do they need shavings?

Thanks!

My first post was answering a post on how long a hen stays fertilized after being bred by a rooster

. Now if you mean first thread i started- i was looking to buy show quality SDW OEGB's, but never got any hits.

That was actually on the old ez-board forum back in 2005, before Rob bought the website and created the new forum. I think those posts are long gone although the forum still exists: http://backyardchickens.yuku.com/

I didn't switch over here until the traffic picked up a little.

My first one on this forum was for a coop design contest:

Here's mine.


Hi everyone. I'm in extreme Southern Illinois, Pope County. Just returned after a 5 year absence and am getting things reorganized. I inherited a small flock of chickens with three Black Jersey Giants, one Rhode Island Red, three Buff Orpingtons, and a rooster of unkown origin (as near as I can tell for the breeds). I am chicken sitting 10 banty hens and one banty rooster. Have one Orpington that is setting right now with an expected hatch date of May 15. I also have a bunch of Cornish cross pullets that were supposed to be straight run heavies (so much for the nearby farm supply store). Gave them another try and have 54 hatchery mix. Looks like they might be Brahman, Australorp or Jersey Giant, Ameracauna, and ?. So many of the different breeds look very much alike when they are chicks. Oh yeah, my sister-in-law got her grandkids two ducks for Easter and guess who ended up with them? That's right, me.
I have enjoyed the forums and they have been most helpful. I am currently expanding the chicken coop and getting ready to fence in the vegetable garden. Hopefully the chickens will stay out since they free range during the day.

I've been with the "old timers" in EZBoard and then YUKU bought it out. I was unable to find my original post from EZBoard. Probably thanking everyone for BYC! Wasn't it Garm that started the BYC?

Well, my first one on this resurrected BYC was this one regarding using tar paper in the brooder, on 2/3/07, but I belonged to the other BYC at ezboard for over a year before this post:
