Hello fellow chicken keepers! Anyone else headed to the PPBA show in Lodi this weekend? I'll be there Saturday - just to see chickens and visit folks.

I have a young silkie pullet (6 months) who seems to be sneezing all the time. She's been doing this for a couple of months. There is no eye or nasal discharge & no smell of sickness. Her appetite & poop are normal. I thought maybe is was a response to the fires locally & the ash in the air but...

Hi all! It's been forever since I've dropped in. I wanted to let everyone know that I'm ok. We were next to evacuation zones but thanks to favorable topography & wind direction, we are safe & sound. Just a lot of smoke. I hope all of you are well too.

Just dropping in to say hi all! :frow

Hi all! It's been forever since I've checked in here. I hope everyone's flock are well. Any one have any hatching eggs of any breed? I am looking for up to 6 standard-sized eggs or 9 bantam-sized eggs. I am in Fairfield & would be willing to drive about 1 hour one way. I have a broody modern...

Hi all! Its been awhile since I've been on here. I am ISO harching eggs for olive eggers (F2 preferred). I lost mine this winter. Willing to drive to pickup. Thank you!

Here's my worst one this year She an olive egger (Golden Cuckoo Marans X Wheaten Ameraucana) who spent most of the year broody.

The gal who posted the pic on a FB group say "No, it doesn't change color or wash off". Now I gotta find a pullet or 2...

Me too! Hard to believe it's been a year already. Wait until you see the white plymouth rock pullets that I'm picking up.
