ok thanks, would crushed layer pellets suffice?

Well, I just found baby chicks in my coop and I don't know how long they have been there because they could have been hiding but they are dry and fluffy. The store is closed and I have no idea what to feed them. I can't get out untill tomorrow. What can I feed them in the mean time?

well were getting a thermomiter to moniter the heat and there is a place for water already built in! I found out that if we want to have the eggs hatch before winter break we have to get them into the school by wenesday!!!! The worst part is we don't have the thermomiter yet!!!! Hopefully I'll...

Ok for a school project my daughter is bringing to school a little giant 9200 (Ithink) with an automatic turner. It's a still air but were adding a muffin fan(from computer) to make it a forced air. There have been recent power outages at some of the local schools, should I wait a week to start...

yes, do you have any hens your willing to trade for this rooster?

we live in nj-and we got an unexpected cold front or something- and it kept getting worrse(the beak) we tried and tried but it just wouldnt fix

hi im looking for silkie pullets to add to my flock

I'm lucky- where i'm getting my dragon, they don't eat crickets, she has like 40, so she feeds them all chicken- perfect site.
