    Need to order more hatching eggs….

    They certainly don't sound broody ATM and whether you get a broody hen or not is up to chance so unless you are willing to wait on something that may or may not happen (and none of the breeds you have are known for being particularly broody) incubating is going to being the most certain option...

    Meow Meow Monday!!!

    Perhaps the scab fell off and needs to reform? I'd just keep it clean with some iodine and keep an eye on it for now. If it gets worse or doesn't improve, I'd of course get her to a vet but I agree it doesn't look too bad for now

    Question of the Day - Monday, March 2nd, 2026

    They're too short to tell a story well enough for my liking, books and TV shows have more time to go into better detail and tell a longer story. Aside from that movies have a vibe that just rubs me the wrong way. I would rather experience a story via any other medium (besides musical or opera as...

    If Chickens Could Speak, What Would Yours Complain About?

    "Let us out! Let us out! Let us out! LET US OUT RIGHT NOW HUMAN!!!" Not letting them out today as that foxhound came back. No, she hasn't hurt the birds at all nor is she aggressive. I just want to make sure she gets back home first 'cause letting chickens free range with a strange dog around...

    Maybe some olive eggers for olive green eggs? Nothing wrong with caring about egg color even though it impacts nothing, I very much care too lol :D

    Heart failure

    Chickens aren't that fragile, not even bantams like seramas. The only ones who would be in danger at those temps are very young chicks who don't have a heat source (and chicks with a heat plate would be fine, I've brooded chicks where the ambiant temps were lower than that and they were just...

    Heart failure

    Just bad luck. Sometimes chickens die from stuff like that for no obvious reason and sometimes no way for us to prevent it. You can reduce the likelihood of issues by limiting treats but even then some birds are going to have issues no matter what you do or don't do

    Bible Reading Thread!

    I just don't celebrate most holidays, not because I think they're bad necessarily, I just don't care and would rather put my energy towards other things lol. I might use easter as an excuse to offload bless my coworkers with some extra eggs (I have easter eggers so they are naturally colorful)...

    Young Chocolate Orpington rooster temperament

    Depends, he likely will show more interest in the girls eventually but his overall temperament may or may not change. No telling when it comes to living animals, you will just have to wait and see

    getting baby chicks, any advice?

    Or use a quail chick waterer as it's wide enough for a bird to drink but too narrow for them to drown in even without marbles

    Bessie has to go.

    What's their diet like including treats and how much space is in their coop and run?
