HA! Another member recently reacted to this and I re read it. "Graduating to cattle in the next few years" my boyfriend came home at the end of February and said.... SOoooooo I am bringing home four pregnant cows HA

Oooh, okay. I got it. I cannot spell. That was my mistake! The product page on the TS website had Ameraucanas as one of the breeds you might get. That breed and these are the remaining that may be in the box as well: Cuckoo Marans, French Black Copper Marans, Midnight Majesty Marans, Prairie...

Do some types of marans have feathery feet and others don’t? I have two blacks that don’t have feathered feet but look almost identical to the ones that do. I didn’t know that about Americaunas! I thought the EE were bred from them not that they are the same thing! Thank you! They didn’t...

I bought the egg color mix from tractor supply so I know that they were supposed to be some type of Maran, americauna, olive egger, or prairie blue bell. However I cannot figure out what they are, I tried to get the best possible photos I could I’m certain the yellow one is an americauna but...

So it’s a funny story. I have a camera on them from one corner of their yard and I caught her flying right at it one day. I sent it to a friend, who responded with a gif from the movie Chicken Run of the chicken who always knits saying she didn’t want to be a pie. It made me laugh so hard, I...

Oh jeez I have a camera on my chickens and I jumped up and down and danced I was so happy!

Oh my gosh so excited!!!

She is! I have her and Barbara who is a silver laced Wyandotte. My boyfriend picked babs and is very smug she was the first

My girl Babs surprised me this evening with my very first egg!! We got four pullets in January that were all hatched in August, so I have known it would be any day now. Babs started squatting last Wednesday every time I went into the yard and today she finally delivered 😍 I can’t figure out how...

Okay you and huntmaster are amazing. Thank you. I just went and checked on them. They are under the lamp so the plate might not be working correctly as you mentioned. It’s 87 degrees in that spot. I’ll make the necessary adjustments and move the lamp over the plate like you suggested they were...

It’s chilly in the shed, but it’s not freezing. I would say the temp is somewhere around 40-50 degrees. I was struggling to get the temp of the brooder up to 90 degrees Thank you for the advice though, I’ll definitely make adjustments!

I have no idea haha this was just a set up I saw on youtube

So my plan is to use this one for a few weeks and build a larger baby coop inside my run that can easily be dismantled and removed once they all get used to each other and keep it for future introductions. The box they are in now is about 11-10 inches and I plan on cleaning it fully out. I use...

Thank you so much! I brought a wood block out and set it under the water, but then I took them out of the box, and they were SO small; I took it out, but I will go put it back. I know they have stretch necks, lol Regarding the heat lamp, would you have the brooder plate on one end and the heat...

Hulloooo first time chicken owner, I’ve had four 6 mo old pullets for a month and figured why not get some chicks. I’ve done a ton of research trying to figure out my brooder set up but of course I’m questioning myself because that’s what we do right? I’d love some feedback on my set up. I...

Hi!! Welcome! Also new also inherited my original four chickens and can confirm this is a wonderful community. So helpful, kind, and willing to answer questions!!

That and it looked a bit chunky. Their other poos have been more one long piece vs smaller pieces. If that makes sense. But okay perfect! thank you for your advice!!

I’ll happily share pictures!

Hi all! I’m new still trying to figure things out. Just some background I have two dogs and I know they aren’t doing well when their poo gets weird I have four chickens all hatched in August, I’ve googled lots of chicken poo but never seen one like this. Is it normal? It’s very cold here in...

Thank you!
