I am doing a research project and was just wondering if Hurricane Sandy had an effect on your chicken's egg production. It did on mine so I am looking for more opinions! Thanks
One of my buff orpingtons hens went broody on unfertilized eggs. How can I get her unbroody? I tried putting ice under her and blocking off her nest for a couple of hours but it didn't work.
I just got back from a vacation and I came back to see one of my buff orpingtons had dried blood on the top of her beak and part of her beak gone. Is she okay? What do you think happened? I have a fox in my area.
One of my chicks just hatched, it is really weak. It kinda falls over when it walks. Its about 25 hours old. She is in the brooder and is dry. IS she fine?
How long should i keep a chick hatched last night at 6 in the incubator????? Also the chick has a black thing on her butt. it is like 3 cm long. What is that and what should i do with it????
Is a cuckoo maran egg?. I have two Buff Orpingtons and a cuckoo maran and was wondering if this is the marans egg or one of my BOs. It would be the cuckoo marans first egg.
Both of these pics are of the same egg.
Are there any ways to keep your water from freezing in the winter. Also are than anyways to increase they egglaying. I have a mini battery powered light in the coop. I have no electricity near my coop
I just got a laying cuckoo maran hen. She has been with my existing flock for 4 days. On the first day, she got beat up a little, but now is part of the flock and is not getting pecked. When will she start to lay?

Friendly 6 month Partridge Silkie rooster for sale! Only for Local Pickup in NJ. Email me for further info on location for pick up and pics since I can't upload them on the site!
I just realized a hen that I ordered is a rooster. He is a partridge silkie and I have two other Buff Orpingtons. Will he mate with them?? If so, are there anyways I can prevent it from happening?
Thanks
