Chicken breeds do vary in temperament. Plenty of information is on-line
with lots of information about average egg production, eggs color and size,
whether they are heat or cold tolerant, etc. – just about anything you
would want to know.
The chicken’s ear is a fleshy disk like area below the chicken’s eye on the
side of its head.
I’m guessing when you put them in the fridge the cells stop dividing.
how do u have a chicken and a hen in the same area with out there eggs
becoming chicks?
I have female guineas with my chickens and they act more like guard dogs
and they lay their eggs with the others and also will sit on eggs to hatch
naturally. No cannibalism either.
Great vid. Glad to see you’re back from that horrific rooster attack, that
rooster nearly took of head let only what it did to your arm.
Yeah man!! :o)
I sure miss my chickens….had a lot of fun with them..I hope to have some
again.
Yes. They actually tend to have a better survival rate if hatched with them.
how about ducks………with the chickens? and do chicks have to be 6 mo
old before they start laying? what kind of “heat”" do you put in the pens?
my neighbor just got 4 baby chicks and is putting them outside in a hen
house he bought……….I think they are too young yet. just babies he has
been keeping inside………….. ???
I’d keep them inside unless he has a heat lamp set up. Then it’s fine
depending on out side temps and his set up. They need to be able to warm up
and cool down. Thell regulate there own body temps.
Awesome bro!!! this was one of the best informational videos about
chcikens. cant wait to learn some more on the next videos. Thanks!!!
Thank you. There won’t be anymore chicken videos for a long while. The land
owner and I had a falling out is the very short version. But there are a
lot of other self sufficiency videos to come. Thank you for the compliment.
Chickens are actually easier than most think. Of course there are a lot of
little tricks to them but the only way to learn how to swim is JUMP IN THE
WATER! Best of luck. Keep me posted on your success!
Do reply back once you get your own chickens. They are really fun and
rewarding to work with. Except the rooster, they can be “special”. I’ve
learned to use a stick w/ them and they want nothing to do w/ that!! He
goes to bite it he gets a mouth full of wood. Then he runs away! LOL A lot
more humane way to deal with them and just way easier and safer.
Surgery.
I wasn’t sure how to spell it. Thank you for the correction.
I’m making this a series. Next will either be on breeds or on what to do
with the eggs before incubating and how to incubate. I think your thinking
of guineas. They LOVE ticks!
nice, great info. cant wait to see more
Americanas
They are fun. I even look forward to the daily quarrel with the rooster lol
Ohh I know how that can go. Sorry you are having to deal with the mess &
hope you could figure out something to have your chickens again. Seems you
are very good with them. But I will still look forward to your other
videos. If I could gather up a lil cash & figure a coop out~~I think I just
may JUMP IN! LOL You will be the 1st to know if I get chickens. I just love
the looks of them also. Think they are beautiful. Thanks.
There are a few breeds that don’t follow the ear color rule. I can’t
remember which ones, but I don’t think they’re ones you want for egg
production. Also, for your reply to someone else about guineas, so long as
they’ve been raised around chickens and ducks they won’t kill them.
However, they can and will breed with chickens as well as peafowl.
SW Oklahoma. I wouldn’t. I don’t have experience with turkeys so i cant
answer this completely. But I do know that if you put chickens in w. ones
much bigger and older they tend to pick on them and kill them sometimes.
That I have experience with.
How do the chickens get on top the perching sticks.
They’re cool huh?
