We have two hens now and are looking to update. The two we have around two years old and we love them.

Last April I bought beautiful hatching eggs from someone... We had a computer crash and a golden retriever eat my iPhone since. For the life of me, I cannot find who sold me these gorgeous eggs!!! The pullers just started laying and their first eggs are darker than any other marans firsts I...

This is French Fry...a 2.5 year old CCL and veteran broody hen. She seems a bit pale to me, has scabs on her face (I'm guessing from nesting box wars) and keeps shaking her head and opening her mouth (most concerning). She's a great protector of her nest. It has been really warm here- I've now...

Hi friends- long time no post... Sorry. I'm posting this for a friend and will cross post in the incubating with friends thread... Her Amercauna has separated herself from the flock, finding a shady spot and is sleeping during the day. She soaked her and checked her vent but doesn't feel...

Hi- Merry Christmas! My lavender Orpington has been separating herself from the flock and walking around all puffed up. She's eating and drinking some, but, seems to be rocking backwards onto her heels and bum, in the "hospital" crate. She is just about 4 months old. No signs of live or mites...

Chicken math has set in and I have now decided I need ALOT more space! We recently moved into our "dream house", on a half acre lot (almost unheard of in Southern California). There is a shed/playhouse I had an epiphany I could attach the coop to. My girls can watch their feathered sisters from...

We are heartsick! My nanny had my 4 year old out getting supplies for the three new babies we were getting delivered yesterday. We have been putting out 4 week old Cream Legbars and White silkies (5 total) outside for the days in a screened "area"- I had stapled and secured window screening...

Hi! I am a brand spankin' newbie with 7 babies ranging from 1-4weeks old. My neighbor has silver laced Wyandottes and offered us 18 eggs. With giddy anticipation, I made them yesterday (simple scramble on low heat)... While I know I am not "use" to fresh backyard eggs, these were NOT...

I am starting my flock and am looking for a good, local, breeder. Thank you in advance! I am interested in Lavendar Orpingtons, Blue Laced Red Wyandottes, and columbian Wyandottes. I am also thinking of blue splash Marans!

I am starting my flick and looking for good local breeder. Thank you in advance!
