Hi y'all!
My name is Hayley and I've had my girls for about 3 years now. My husband (the Chicken Daddy) and I hand raised our flock. Were hoping to add a few more this spring!

Question(s)…
we have 2 8wk old seramas that were vaccinated for Merricks when they were just born from the farm we purchased them from. We are now getting 2 more seramas to add to our flock who are not vaccinated and a few weeks older. (Maybe 3-6?) Anything we should be worried for/look out...
Got these sweethearts today!!! Just curious as to their gender. We have 5 sapphire gems and I think the last one is a black australorp. Any thoughts as to whether I have any Roos? How many pullets?
Hello again!
We finally finished our coop and the chickens have been having a blast. It’s a bit of an odd design but we love it and like how moveable it is. On the coop, the front has a latch for easy access to the eggs. On both sides there are windows for plenty of sunlight and lots of...
Every chicken tractor that my husband and I looked at on YouTube, various websites, and poultry supply operations were bulky, heavy, small and in my opinion, seemed kind of lacking in many ways.
We have ten girls, have no landscaping at all right now and lots of Red-Tailed Hawks that loom above...

I’m from the UK and was wondering what vaccinations people recommend for day old chicks which is available over here.
We hatched chicks a few times but they are only a hobby and we didn’t vaccinate but this year we were thinking to.
Any help would be brilliant
Hey, it's Kate! Pull up a chair, we're going to chat about chooks, dooks, and geesies (and other poultry). Today, I would like to start out with some pics :) :love
So, um ya, I'll try to get bi-weekly updates!
Hi! I figured I'd share the recipe for my chickens favorite treats! I call them chicken cakes and they go crazy for them. They're really good for rewards when training, getting them used to your call, or just for happy chickens
So I don't use exact measurements but the main base is flour and...
After much research and ending up here everytime, I decided to sign up. I live in Northeast Ohio. I have three road island reds and three leghorns. They're almost five months old right now but laying eggs like crazy. It must be the weather and the fact that I give them everything they need...
I am new to chickens... I have 10 who are 5 weeks old and am getting ready to move them from my basement to my garage. We have a 5 x 6 coop and a 20x20 enclosure. I am looking for something that I can enclose them in to move them around the yard so they have access to grass and bugs. We have a...
