We love Meyer's. Second time ordering. Great customer service and pretty decent breed selection

Got them from Meyer's Hatchery. 71 chicks survived out of 77.

Got our chicks today! 71 of 77 made it so far. :) Happy to have chickens again! We think this one is an Easter egger.

Welcome! We're in Toney, where are you? This site is awesome for info.

Interesting, commercial operations not affected. https://www.usnews.com/news/best-states/tennessee/articles/2017-03-16/alabama-bans-poultry-sales-amid-avian-flu-concerns

We were worried about the in-out ban. We're real close to the quarantine area and have 74 chicks coming in next week from Meyer's.

Thanks on the SSS. I live in a neighborhood, so I would have to try to snipe with a pellet gun if it came to that. I did find this link that helped me understand more about hawks in Alabama: http://www.outdooralabama.com/sites/default/files/images/file/NuisanceAnimals/Hawks_Roger_CLAY_Final.pdf

Had a hawk swoop down on my girls yesterday while I was outside. It hit branches and took back off into the sky. It's wingspan was about 30-35". All our chickens are full grown large breeds (BR, BO, etc.) Is a hawk this size dangerous to these girls? Our yard is heavily treed and lots of...

On a more pleasant note, we got our landscaping done. 3 tons of crushed rock and 40 landscape timbers (on sale for memorial day).

Mosquito question: Do any of you have issues with them and the hens? If so, would using people screen over HW cloth be worth it? Just saw our first today, and I can't stand them. Hate to have the ladies cooped up with a few hundred at night.

Is that what they're calling it these days??

Question, maybe a stupid question: are the game roosters and pairs on there for fighting?? The prices threw me for a loop...

I've had "farm fresh" but never my own eggs. Hopefully in three more months! We're so enjoying the girls, it's like having a newborn that is growing a year a week... :) Question: Would it be cool to have a map of all the active Alabama members (general locality, not addresses)? Maybe...

80% complete on our pergola extended run for the girls. They got to "free" (read mud) range for the first time today too. An hour of chicken TV that reinforced our thought that chickens were a good idea. Too cool. I need to quit my job and spend my time here...

Building phase II. Extended run.

Thanks!

Thanks y'all, still a lot of work left to do!

Our girls moved out to the coop last weekend. We've realized that we need to hurry up and landscape so we have a dry path (or at least a not so muddy path) to the coop. Here's one of our EEs. Eight weeks this coming Monday. Our coop, with spotlights on the mud.

LOL!! I'll just grab a can of WD40 and my lighter... May need more WD40.

Huntsville at 5" and still going strong.
