I’m selling these two GLW pullets. Their hatch date is 8/24/20 and they came from Meyer Hatchery. I don’t breed Wyandottes, so these two were order fillers to help me reach 25 chicks for my order. Both are in great health, very active and tough little kids. My flocks are disease-free and very...

She had severe wry tail. I thought it was very interesting what I found when I opened the body cavity. I’m guessing there were about 10 egg yolks and one egg that appeared almost ready to lay. I don’t often cull my pullets unless there is a problem so I was kinda surprised at the number of...

Just a quick video, which I rarely do! :) I like to hand feed scrambled eggs once a day to my growing chicks. This group is 3 1/2 weeks old. Amy

I have some concerns. I should mention that this is my first hatch and that these eggs are pretty dark. I have numbered them from lightest to darkest. Egg 1 is about the darkness of a good Welsummer egg and 8 is dark as dark chocolate. I have not pictured all the eggs, just the ones I'm most...

Little Midge is my only bantam. She's a real joy to us. Her spunk and energy level are to be admired! She laid her very first egg yesterday. I figured an egg was impending the day before because she was being very vocal, which she usually is not. She is 23 weeks old. Her egg weighed 23 grams...

Does anyone know of or use an app for hatching eggs? I know there are apps for people expecting babies, but what about hatching eggs?

Celebrate with us as we admire the first green egg out of our 21 1/2 week old EEs! Compared to a brown egg. So lovely!:wee

I took a quick video of the month-olds this afternoon while taking a break from all the activities of today. They love the summer squash my neighbor/coworker gave me from his garden. I can't believe how much these kids eat!

I’m loving my time off from work. It’s given me the opportunity to just enjoy moments like this. Never let a good crisis go to waste! ;) Wait for it… Ahhhh! Pure bliss! My Buckeyes are 7 weeks old now. I moved them to the grow out coop yesterday. They are loving the new accommodations...

This hen is fighting for her life. She's one of those quiet, unassuming hens that never causes problems. So she just fits in and you don't notice her unless something is wrong. She was keeping to herself and not moving around much. I did some examining and to my horror discovered she was...

…poultry style. :D

Yesterday, I had to have my vet put down the best dog I've ever had. It was gut wrenching, excruciating and I never want to go through it again. I cried for 24 hours. The only time I didn't cry was when I was asleep. I got on the forum late last night and just got lost in the wonderful threads...

I ordered 7 Buckeyes (one is male) and 3 Easter Eggers pullets from Meyer Hatchery. They arrived today in perfect condition. I’ve never been disappointed with an order from Meyer. And now your viewing pleasure, the first two links are videos. Baby chicks 4/21/20 (click) More babies! (Click)...

These two little guys would like to come live with you! Their hatch date is 3/10/20 and I got them from TSC. Both are full of personality. Photos taken 4/13/20. I will post updated photos as they grow. Located in NW Ohio. The first one is a Silver Sebright. Second one is a Porcelain d'Uccle.

This is Nessie, a hen we adopted from a coworker who was planning to butcher her along with 7 BAs. I offered to take them all off his hands and he happily agreed! Unfortunately, the dominant hen of the flock (a Black Star) wont tolerate her. We set up a cat carrier for her in the barn with feed...

Went to TSC to pick up supplies and see if they had any bantams. I came home with three bantams and three Ameracauna, a breed I’ve always wanted to try. Here are some pics! I’m fairly certain this first one is a Silver Sebright (hopefully a pullet). Can’t wait to see adult plumage on this one...

Hi, I'm Amy and I'm from NW Ohio. We have a saying here: "If our summers don't kill ya, our winters will!" I've been keeping chickens since 2008 and it's a hobby I truly enjoy. My current flock is 18 hens (recently rescued/adopted a few) last night. My son and are in the process of designing a...
