and all I can say is !

DH just emailed me the link to this old looking incubator on craigslist. Any one know anything about it? http://omaha.craigslist.org/grd/652972726.html

Is there a bator out there or a way to make one that I could hatch just one or two eggs with? And is there a way to get just one or two eggs from someone? I currently only have my girls but really really really want to hatch a baby or two. Anytime I see any for sale or anything, it's for a...

DH just called from the feed store to say they had their chicks in but there's a RIR that's pretty bad. He's bringing it home to see if we can save it but I need some advise on where to start. I'm getting the brooder from last year back together so I can get it warmed up before he gets here...

I don't know if this has been posted before or not, a friend sent it to me. Why did the chicken cross the road? DR. PHIL : The problem we have here is that this chicken won't realize that he must first deal with the problem on 'THIS' side of the road before it goes after the problem on the...

I lost my favorite chicken the other day, she was only about 7 months old. I went out in the morning to leave for work and she was just laying there. Nothing got to her and she was fine the night before running around the yard with the others during their free range time. She was my special...

I let my girls out a little while ago for their usual free range and treat time but my RIR hen doesn't seem to be seeing right. She's moving really slow and seems to have some depth perseption problems. If I hold something up for her to eat she doesn't seem to have any problem taking it from...

I haven't posted pictures of my girls in a long time. I finally remembered to take the camera outside with me when we went out to sit with them in the evening. Here's my the standards together, looking for trouble I'm sure. These are pictures of them separately. Sophie, my crazy Buff Orp...

I live at a lake about 35 miles south of Omaha and last week three ducks showed up on my neighbors dock. Well, something happened to one of them after the first night (which I'm still upset about ) and I've been feeding the other two ever since. The neighbors gave me their kids little plastic...

One of my babies laid her first egg today. I'm so excited and surprised. She's one of my two bantam chickens and she's only 17 weeks old. She was acting a little weird today and was hanging out in their coop instead of being in the run like usual. She seemed fine so I left her alone...

I fixed some asparagus tonight for dinner and have the woody ends that were cut off and where wondering if they were okay to give to my girls?

I'm heading to Woodstock, GA tomorrow and will need to stay the night in that area. I know there's a few people here from Georgia and thought I would ask if any one knew about where I should stop. I'll be heading in from the Chatanooga area. I don't need a fancy hotel or anything, a Days Inn...

Okay, this is probably a really silly question but about how old are chicks when they are fully grown? I know how old they'll be when they start laying but I haven't read anything about when they're done growing.

I was given this little sweetie about 9 weeks ago. She's about 11 1/2 weeks old now. I know she's a bantam but does anyone have any idea what she might be?

I bought three chicks about 12 1/2 weeks ago from a feed store. After looking at pics of others chickens here on the forum, I'm pretty sure they had the signs mixed up for the breeds. I bought a Buff Orphington, which was labeled right. I also bought a RIR and an Ameraucana. I came to...

I have a 5-6 week old Bantam that was given to me when it was a couple of weeks old. It's really driving me crazy that I don't know if it's a boy or a girl and was wondering if they show the same signs as standard breeds. I had them outside the day before yesterday and it seemed like it could...

We went to the local feed store today to buy chick feed and they had all their chicks 50% off. I wanted some sooooo bad but DH just ignored my wanting looks. We already have five others (three 6 weeks old, one 5 weeks, & 1 that 4 weeks) and we were only going to get one to start with. Oh...

...I mean my three standards. The Frizzle is four weeks old, the other bantam is about five weeks. Not sure if they're boys or girls yet and I'm not sure what type the light colored one is either. Here are my monsters, they're six weeks old. Sophie (Buff Orphington) Lily (Ameraucana)...

We went to the feed store tonight and made the mistake of going to look at the chicks, well my DH says it was a mistake. I had said I was just going to look but then I saw this sweet little Bantam and had to get it. Plus I was given a Bantam a couple of days ago and she needs a friend her own...

I had posted yesterday about this. And of course no one had any problems but I am. I have three chicks, three weeks old today, and was given another chick yesterday that was bought just a couple days after I got my three. Turns out though that she's a Bantam. Well when I put them...
