Thank you for sharing this with us farmer connie! I thought there was no treatment!

Great article on starting to raise chickens.

This is the most comprehensive article that I have read so far on treating an egg bound hen, symptoms and prevention. Thank you!

A great article for a beginner on how to clip a chicken's wings. This is the method I use and it works very well. This depends on the size of your chicken though. I have used this wing clipping method on small breeds and it doesn't really prevent flight. As long as you have a fence that is at least 6 feet, wing clipping will always be a perfect solution.

I really enjoyed reading this interesting, informative article! I have heard how heat lamps can be a cause of fire and I definitely wouldn't use it. As long as my coop is well insulated with my 10 chickens, things should turn out fine!

A really good deep litter method article but it doesn't tell you how to dissipate waste.

This is a great article providing all of the questions and answers about raising backyard chickens that anyone would ever need to know! Your first time raising chickens would a great success if you would just read this article before buying any! Thank you BYC Support!

This is a great article on common mistakes poultry keepers make. I have had chickens die from being egg bound when I first became a chicken owner and I didn't really understand what all these diseases and emergencies actually were. I am glad you included this in the article!

Great article on reading how to introduce new chickens to your flock! I wasn't sure about the whole quarantine thing and learned some new things about the pecking order I didn't know as well. Thanks for writing!

This was a great and interesting article to read, and a lot of the information I had no idea about! Such as, eggs from grocery stores could be old! Thanks for writing this article it definitely helped!

This is a great article about buff orpingtons! It shows them as chicks developing into hens, their personality and a lot more! I personally like how big and ornamental these ones are and how sweet they look.

Interacting and spending time with your chickens is a very fun hobby! Even though when it comes to cleaning out the coop etc.. Great article!

This is a good article stating the different chicken breeds and purposes each one of them serves.

Love this article! Nesting boxes really do require a lot of space if you want any size chicken to fit and really adapt well to it!

Excellent Article! Lots of pictures and information demonstrating how to build it!

I really enjoyed scrolling down to each picture and seeing a cute chicken face in each one! They are all absolutely adorable and I really favor those Easter eggers! You were really blessed to get beautiful birds!

It was nice to read this article and would definitely be a great help to people who have never known about these interesting facts about eggs.

This article tells all of the information of incubating and hatching eggs! I always new baby chicks were susceptible to drowning so I give them water in something small then in a couple of weeks get something bigger like a little dog bowl.

This article is definitely right explaining the benefits of being a BYC member! Once you start posting and getting into chicken contest, learning a ton of information, this site gets really fun and addicting!
