    The Chickens Of Aimee

    I have 6 EE's that are about 4-5 weeks old now.(3-5-12). They are the first chicks I hatched myself. I didn't get as good as a hatch as I wanted to.

    4 week old chick. Aggressive?

    Is there anyone who has any tips for stopping this behavior? So far it has not been doing it anymore, but if it starts again and there is no way to stop it then it will have to go.

    4 week old chick. Aggressive?

    My house is small. There is no where in here the chicks can be until it is warm enough outside(snowing) that they would not be somewhere close to him. Also he would have to come with me to feed and water them outside as my husband is a trucker and there would be no one inside to watch him. He...

    4 week old chick. Aggressive?

    I normally put the chicks "brooder" box on the table so the kids can see them and the birds will hopefully become more friendly. The EE's I have aren't very people friendly even though I hatched them myself and even had to help some out of the shell because the humidity did not stay up so they...

    Hello

    (1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? I am very new to chickens. I had one once when I was little and it followed me everywhere but I wasn't allowed to keep it. I just recently hatched out some babies with my friend about 3 weeks ago. (2) How many chickens do you...

    Ameraucanas? Gender?

    OK. Thanks for the answers. How do you tell the EE and Ameraucanas apart? Brandoncakes you say they are usually true to there colors. I am totally new to chickens and I have no idea what those colors would look like. Do you have a post or website that has pictures and descriptions of them? Or...

    Ameraucanas? Gender?

    I am new here. My friend and I got some eggs from a lady in the next town who had a pretty nice setup and kept all her breeds separate from each other. She got Rhode Island Reds and I got Ameraucanas. I have been reading different things online and some places said they aren't very common and...
