    Hampbar Chickens...who else has them?🐥

    I got a pair of these little darlings with my chocolate Orpington chicks last month from a local breeder. I had never heard of them before, but they were so pretty and the breeder said they would blend well with my flock (Americanas, Orpingtons, RIR, Australorp, Brahma). They really are...

    First Egg Layed in the Garage During a Hurricane 🌀🐔🥚 #ThanksIdalia

    Is there such a thing as a “pre-broody” chicken???

    My Black Australorp is 16 weeks old, has not laid an egg yet, and when I let the girls out to free range and the others are foraging or taking dirt baths, lately this is what she has been doing. Also, very vocal and nervous around the coop, reminding me a bit of when my Golden Comets first...

    Urgent: Airway/breathing obstruction or just Heat Stroke?

    Hi all: This just happened this afternoon with my 15 week old Easter Egger hen Hazel. When I let the flock out for their daily afternoon free ranging I noticed her breathing and wheezing(?) like this. We live in Northern Florida and we have a severe heat index (around 111) but this has been...

    Will my Gold Laced Wyandotte always be like this?🫠

    This is my first experience owning a Gold Laced Wyandotte and she is by far the most aloof and lacking in personality of any chicken that I’ve ever owned (Despite being stunningly beautiful 😍). I’ve raised her by hand from a day old chick along with her 12 other flock mates, consisting of...

    Easter Eggers, do I have a Roo or just some dominant chick-a-dees???🐥🐓

    Hi all…I started a brand new flock a little over 4 weeks ago. With my previous flock up north, we didn’t know what we were doing and we just grabbed eight of the cutest chicks in the bin at TSC. We ended up with all pulleys, a silkie, a bantam, four golden comets and two cuckoo marans. Once...

    Starting A New Flock in Florida🐥🌴

    Hello All. My family started with this chicken business like many people did at the onset of Covid with the “panic pullets”🐣. Fortunately we had the location and opportunity with remote work/school situations to dedicate our time to raising a flock of eight chicks as well as building a safe coop...
