    Chattanooga, TN (surrounding areas) CHICKEN LOVERS

    Hello all - so glad I found this thread. I was an active user of the East TN thread that Bairo started until it got shot down. Not sure why it did, but I'm glad there's one closer to me. I see some familar names on here! I live in Ooltewah and have been a 'chicken farmer' (as I've been...

    Hey guys! It's been awhile. Been quite busy and haven't stopped by to lurk around. I've got a problem I'm hoping some of you locals can help me out with. I got my starter flock from Bairo and I'm happy to report all the birds are healthy and growing well! I'm not so happy to report that...

    So I don't check this thread for 4 days and there are over 375 posts! I think I'm caught up...My son and I have named all the chickens we got a few weeks ago and are becoming used to us invading their space. They all come running/flying to us to see what type of treats we've brought them...

    Yes, they are the ones I got from Rodney. Two Marans and 7 Welsummer or Welsummer cross. So I've had them for just over a week. Would you wait longer or take your chances this soon?

    The girls are slowly becoming more accustomed to my son and I hanging around. They've come to realize that the cup I carry down there that has just a little bit of scratch grains in it is the calling card to come over. A few shakes of the cup and they all come running over. They are all...

    I bought this unit to run a couple hot wires around my chicken pen, coop and run. I've yet to work up the nerve to touch the wire to see how much of a shock it gives you, by my ohm meter says it's plenty! Instructions are easy to follow. Came with appropriate padding so that the unit arrived...
