chicks

I've had these chickens for about 5 weeks and they are well fed & healthy. They aren't loud at all and eat well. The smaller chick just started growing its darker feathers and the larger one is growing pretty fast. The food and feeders are included with the chickens.

Hello everybody, I have a black australorp hen (I think) that layed eggs, sat on them for a while, we thought they would not ever hatch, and we were having issues because my cousin decided to grab random eggs and stuff them inside the nest where my chicken was, so now we don't know what's a...

Can I work my way to blue silver birchen Cochins? I have two lemon blue Cochins and BBS cochins.

Hey everyone So I got some chicks on March 22nd, so they are almost 3 weeks old. I also got two chicks on April 7th. I added them to the brooder and the one is doing great, she is chasing the big ones and getting food and water, the other one is getting food and water but she doesn’t really...

Hi all you chicken mamas. I am new to the chicken world and would love some advice on when the chicks are good to be moved to the coop/run. We got our girls (hopefully all girls) March 15th when they were 3 days old.They are doing great and love to hang out with us. We’ve kept them in a...

When I first bought them, the lady present said Bantams. Then I was doubting so I called the store and the lady that owns the place told me that they were jersey giants and gold stars. I've done a lot of research on gold stars and hardly anything pops up, it's genuinely annoying lol so idk if...

Hi I have two silkies which both went broody at the same time. I currently only have hens but a friend gave me some fertile eggs which I popped under them. I noticed my other three chickens have been sitting on top of the silkie which is in their normal nesting box and laying their egg on top of...

This is mostly just for fun. 😉 They are only 5 1/2 weeks and 3 1/2 weeks The first two pics are of the 5 week olds. One is a crossbeak and is probly why she is smaller. The 3rd pic is the 3 week old which I'm sure will be super hard to guess what it will be. I'm gonna be doing gender testing so...

I have 6 young chicks (ages ranging from a few days old to about 1 week) and this is my first flock. I noticed that in the brooder, they’re all digging around the edge almost like they’re trying to escape (I know that this is just their instinct to look for bugs, etc.) What can I give them at...

I have 10 chicks. Half are 2 weeks old the other have 3 weeks old. Last week one of the 2 week olds started sneezing which made me concerned. I reached out to where she came from and they suggested VetRX. I held off because it kinda stopped. Then i noticed another one sneezing. Now tonight a...

Has anyone ever had chicks arrive at their post office later in the day? I’m getting a little nervous. My chicks from cackle shipped Monday, and this morning I did not receive a call early in the AM like previous times. So I went over there to check in person and they weren’t there. My shipping...

Any idea what these are crossed with? Reddish one hatch from brown egg the other all blue eggs. I do know the Roo is easter egger. The brown eggs the old gentleman I got hatching eggs from couldn’t remember the name. Any

I'm looking for paint silkie chicks/eggs! Any gender, but pullets are preferred. I live out of America, so it'd be preferred if it's someone who also does, or ships well. It doesn't have to be someone here, but if you know breeders who can, please tell me. Thank you! :p

I'll be doing a hatch-along with twelve eggs! I might as well tell you guys about the eggs! x3 Easter eggers with a grassy green colouration and a cyan hue. x6 Silkie bantams. (Most likely white in colouration, as the mother was a white silkie.) x3 unknown eggs, that are possibly...

(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? I'm new to chickens, but currently I have some eggs I am hoping to hatch, with help from you guys! (2) How many chickens do you have right now? Well, none currently, but I have twelve eggs! (3) What breeds do you have? I have silky...

I have 4 chicks, 2 bantams and 2 that are supposedly blue australorps but they don’t really have a blue color so not sure how accurate that is. I purchased them all 3 weeks ago from tractor supply and I have a strong feeling the bantams are roosters and possible one of the others. I...

Hey everyone- I’m just looking for some help/advice. I came home from work and my 3 week old chicks had knocked over their water and I’m not sure how long they spent without anything to drink. I know I need to engineer another watered option, I welcome that advice. But first- I was...

Hey y'all! So it happened again... I walked into a feed store (this time it was TSC) for something completely not chick related and happened to see dying baby chicks... this is how I got into chickens... and how 30% of my flock expanded. 🤦‍♀️ I'm not sure if these little guys will make it, but...
