They should hatch tomorrow. We have 53 eggs and we can't keep them at school after Friday. We will gladly give them away to anyone who wants them. They came from two different farms - one in Corona and the other in Mariposa.
I just recently brought home six 3-day-old chicks which are now a week old. Since the day I brought them home, one chick has been constantly pecking all of the other chicks. She doesn't seem to be doing it aggressively though. The other chicks don't seem to be too bothered by it, but the...
Just picked up the last of the chicks I'm raising from tsc! The smaller ones are 3 Americanas (idk how to spell it) and 2 welsummers and the big ones are polish/appenzeller assorted (might just be polish) I'm curious to know how many of you are raising polish this year ! (And maybe some photos? 😉)
I pressed the wrong button when doing an online shipment of Polish chicks and other crested chicks. In summary I need to distribute about 20 Polish chicks ASAP.
Arrival date is expected to be Feb 9. They will be newly hatched.
Please help. I feel silly. I am currently open to advice, creative...
Hi, my chickens are infested with sticktight fleas. It's the middle of summer and the fleas had a population boom. I currently have one week old chicks.
The vet asked me throw my Karbadust (https://www.hadeco.co.za/efekto/pet-care/efekto-karbadust-500g/) powder away because he says it's very...
Hi all!

If you (or anyone you know) needs some brown egg layers if your life reach out.
When they're ready to lay, which is sooner than most other chickens (~20...
Hi everyone,
Excuse me for my English since I'm an Egyptian whose native language is Arabic.
So one of my new hatched quails (6 or 7 days old) is closing one eye totally, i forced it to open its eye and put some anti-inflammatory eye-drops inside of it. It also has a neck sprain as shown in the...
Hey guys!
We are a local dairy goat farm located in Nottingham, New Hampshire that sells all natural bath and body care products, including goat milk soap! We have three Mile Fleur d’Uccle X Cochin chicks available that are a week old and a few more that will be hatching out next week! They are...
So today at my local tractor supply store they had baby chicks (finally). I picked up 3 speckled Sussex and 3 mottled Java’s. I had never heard of these until today! The Sussex I have heard of and knew I wanted them. But the mottled Java’s I decided on after a quick Google of the breed while...
I have 1 hen that hatched 2 chicks on may 6th and 1 hen that hatched 9 chicks on may 3rd. They are now about a week old. My question is, am I able to/should I move a couple of the chicks from the hen that already has 9 chicks, to the hen that only had two chicks? Or should I just leave them...

I have a 1 week old chick. He was shrink wrapped in his egg and couldn't move. We started helping out 24 hours after he pipped. The chick had curled toes and later got pasty butt. I couldn't get him to eat so I had to wet his food down. Finally he ate. We fixed his toes and he doesn't have pasty...
Hi all. I just got chicks a week ago and everything was going great but then this afternoon I noticed one of my chicks was walking with her left leg pointing out. She was the strongest of the chicks until today. It does not appear to be splay leg since the other is perfect and from her hip to...
How can one warrant a very good immune system for chicks that have been hatched at home?
One of the 37 chicks died all of a sudden. There was no signs of sluggishnish or any other symptoms. Please experts give me a diet plan that i can follow for these angels.
thanks in advance!
Hello! I’m glad to be a part of the chicken raising club but definitely struggling along this far. I think my brooder is too warm, but yet my chickens are all huddled together. They are panting, and definitely to the side of the coop, but they are also huddling and seem to be trying to snuggle...
