I have been following you on Facebook for many months because I enjoy all of your tips, information, and new product promotions. Here in Sacramento, CA, we have about sixty chickens right now. We started with buff orpingtion, Ameraucana, Rhode Island, Polish, red and white leghorn, wyandotte, and barred rock. Then after catching "Chicken Fever", my fiance went off the deep end and added another 4 or 5 breeds. Then he purchased an incubator and that is how we ended up with so many. LOL! We love them and treat them all very well and spoil them with special treats daily.

Hi! I subscribed by email. I have four girls, two are golden comets and three are silver lace wyandottes.
ReplyDeleteI subscribe via email!
ReplyDeleteThis is my first year having chickens so I started with a bunch of cold weather hardy breeds. I have a black austrolorp, a silver laced wyandotte, a gold sex link, an americauna, and a welsummer. I then "inherited" what I think is a black star and then 2 with feathers on their feet, no idea what they are! We're looking at adding more this spring, a salmon faverolle, a columbian wyandotte, an ancona and a buff orpington. We already get a bunch of pretty eggs, so I'd love to be able to keep them on the counter in a pretty way.
I am new to the world of chicken keeping, but have found it to be my new passion, and quite possibly my new addiction. On August 29 of last year, my shipment of day old chicks arrived. These pullets are now 20 weeks old and should be laying eggs soon! I will want to display them proudly in a Skelter, for sure! In the meantime, they have become our family's entertainment with their hilarious personalities and chicken antics. I love that they RUN to greet me! Clearly, there must be some truth to the idea of "imprinting" like the movie, Fly Away Home because they seem just as attached to me as I am to them. I love them all! Our Bantam Cochin rooster is named, Chaps. We have two Bantam Cochin pullets we named Wilma and Betty. Our two Americaunas are named Petunia and Cleopatra, two Buff Orpingtons, Buffy & Jody, and five Golden Comets, Dotty, Lucy, Ethel, Hunkie & Dory. from: mindypatt@charter.net
ReplyDeleteHi chicken chick! I subscribed via email. We have one Dark Brahma, one Golden Laced Wyondotte, one Blue Ameraucana, one Lavender Orpington, and a mystery girl that was supposed to be a Cuckoo Marans, however clearly she is not... We love our girls and would love to win this prize! Thanks from Chehalis, Wa! Alanna

ReplyDeleteI have mixed flock, RIR, EE, Black Australorp, Gold Laced Wyanndotte, Barred Rock, and some mix breeds. I would love an egg skelter.
ReplyDeleteI subscribe by e-mail. Look forward to your daily blog updates. I've been keeping chickens for 3 years. Started out with 2 EE's and a RR. Last year, I added a Black Australorp, a Barnevelder, a Barred Rock, and a Silver Laced Wyandotte. Love my ladies. They're more entertaining than watching TV.
ReplyDeleteFirst I just have to say that I love your site, you are so knowledgable and you've given me a whole new perspective on my girls. I subscribe via BFC, and I have 3 Isa Browns (the triplets..they are inseparable), a white leghorn named Apple Bottom, and a Barred Rock named Checkers. Can you tell there are stories to go with the names? Haha thank you for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI hate having to constantly move eggs around so that the we are eating the ones laid first. This would make things so much easier!
ReplyDeleteI also follow by FB and email! As always...love your blog and FB page!
ReplyDeleteLove your blog, found you on facebook, and I have 3 hens and three ducks! Thanks! Katherine D Schmidt kds_tls@yahoo.com

ReplyDeleteI'm subscribed via email! I have Black Minorcas and Red Stars. Can't wait until it gets a little warmer to add to my flock :)
ReplyDeleteI am subscribed via email. Have a flock of 13. Not sure what breed they are. We rescued them from a farmer that said they are a crossbreed. They were not in by good shape when we got them but they are feathering out nicely now. I love reading your tips. Your flock is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHi there!! I am a subscriber via email and I have a Red Star hen, four Buff Orpingtons, a couple of Minorca hens a rooster that is a mixed breed and another rooster that is Barred Rock. Right now, I am only getting one egg per day from my little Red Star hen. She is my little egg machine!! I know that I will get some more eggs when it warms up some and I would so, so, SO love to win this Egg Skelter! I always look forward to reading your blog! You have taught me so much!!

This spring we're going to get some meat birds, and turkeys to sell to family and friends.
ReplyDeleteAfter about an 8 yr layoff I have chickens again! I have a small flock of 10 Black, White and Partridge Silkies and 5 babies in a "grow up" pen. I cant wait for spring!!!
ReplyDeleteI subscribed to your blog by email
We keep chickens but my daughter is the "chicken lover" in the family. She found the Chicken Chick and I subscribed too.
ReplyDeleteWe keep mostly mixed breeds, with some copper marans, jersey giants, Polish, and aracaunas mixed in.
I subscribe to you blog, I love getting informative emails about chicken keeping. I have learned so much since subscribing and cant wait to learn more! I have3 Australorp hens, 3 Silver Laced Wyandotte hens, a production red hen, a california grey leghorn hen, a mystery rooster, 3 Bantam wyandotte hens and a bantam rooster. I got them in april and it was the first time I bought bantams, they are jus for fun. One, that I named Gloria is super friendly and lets my 3 yo and 2 yo hold her.

Thanks for the giveaway!
Neat! I would love this. I subscribed using google connect. I raise Welsummers, olive eggers, Ameraucans, Jersey Giants, Old Fashioned Rhode Island Reds, Muscovy ducks, and several varieties of Heritage turkeys!
ReplyDeleteI've been a blog subscriber for a few months now. I will be hatching my first eggs this spring -- no specific types of chickens picked yet (suggestions?) The Egg Skelter looks fabulous for keeping eggs organized. Right now I buy fresh eggs from local 4H kids.
ReplyDeleteAt 58 yrs old, I have just moved to the first home where chickens would be allowed. It is 15 acres where I can do what I want. For years (and I do mean years), I have read everything I could get my hands on about chickens and visited the feed store whenever chicks were in. Though we have only been here a few weeks, I have already commisioned a coop to keep the ladies safe and feel I am finally on my way. The Skelter would be a great way for me to see the fruits of their labor and my dreams.
ReplyDeleteI subscribed via your blog website. I have 21 hens and 6 roosters. I also have 18 newly hatched chicks. The breeds we have are Swedish Flower, Lavender and Lemon Cuckoo Orphington, Wheaten Maran, Black Copper Maran, Isbarn Norwegian Jaerhorn, Rhodebar, Blue Laced Red Wyandotte, a couple "red" hens, some pure araucana, and pure blue ameracauna. They are all just beautiful and loved :)
ReplyDeleteGood morning! I subscribe to your blog via my email :) Of course I see you on Facebook too! I have one Buff Orpington (Peep) one Barred Rock (Falcon Chicken) one Ameracauna (The Black Chicken) and a few Seramas (Wingy - born with only one wing) and Brownest aka the Brownest Chicken in the World. Love my chicky ladies!
ReplyDeleteGreat site, new to chickens--have not gotten mine yet--will have them in a few weeks, followed your blog via networked blogs
ReplyDeleteI have subscribed to your blog via email and love receiving it! I am new as well to chicken keeping. I am currently waiting on a shipment of chicks including, buff orpingtons, rhode island reds, dark brahmas, white brahmas, araucanas, and two cochins. I would love to add this beautiful egg skelter to our kitchen for display and functionality of our eggs.
ReplyDeleteI subscribe to your blog via my email, and follow you on facebook and pineterest :)I also am a fan of Manna Pro Poultry, and let them know on their facebook page that we appreciate their sponsoring your giveaway. I would love to win the egg skelter! :)
ReplyDeleteI am so excited to see these are finally going to be available in the US!

ReplyDeleteSubscribe to my blog via email, dropastitch@yahoo.com2. Comment below, stating how you subscribed & the breeds of chickens you keep!I have 18 and since I'm new to the chicken keeping I can never remember what kind they are! That's pretty sad, right? Ugh. They are great producers, tho whatever they are. We get 18 eggs consistently, with the odd off day of 16 or 17.

Hi there! I subscribe to your blog through my e-mail and I LOVE it. I also follow you on Pinterest and Facebook - I guess you could call me a stalker. :} The chicken breeds I have running around my place are Wyandottes, Plymouth Rock, Porcelain D'Uccle, Cochins, Sebrights, Polish Bantams, Rhode Island Reds, and several gorgeous mixed breeds, my favorite of which is a Wyandotte/RIR. I recently added four beautiful maniac bug eating (but LOUD) guineas to my collection. :) The Egg Skelter is genius...I gotta have one.
ReplyDeleteWorking on a new family of chickens here in TN - had a half dozen in FL - but gave them away when we moved :( - So the coop is on the list for the spring project and then it will be filled - Hopefully with some Easter Eggers and Ameracaunas
ReplyDeleteI'm still working with my town to allow hens....they allow pot-bellied pigs. I'm signing up for blog via G+1/
ReplyDeleteI subscribe via email (mlbraglin@yahoo.com) and I LOVE your blog and facebook page! :) We started out small and couldn't help but get more chickens. We have about 40 egg layers; some mixed breeds we hatched out along with some Orpingtons, Cuckoo Marans, Ameraucanas, Silkies, Whited Leghorn, Barred Rock, and Golden Comets.
ReplyDeleteI subscribed happily as you have so much great information. I have many types - all layer hens, and a few Welsummer roosters.
ReplyDeleteI have black aussies, buff orps, ROR, Red sexlinks, White Rock, Delawares, Ameracauna, Black lace Wyandotes, Welsummers, and many mixes. About 30 in all. I love love love keeping chickens. My hens all get to live out a long life - even after they quit laying.
I subscribe via email. I have 3 hens one is new hampshire red (Red), 2 barred rocks (blackfoot & blackie). they are about 3 yrs old, but dedicated girls. One barred rock rooster that is almost a yr old. I named him Rocky-Top Tennessee. He is very protective of his girls, but gentle with them. I would like to expand my flock this yr if possible with some Dominiques & Cuckoo Marans.
ReplyDeleteI subscribed via email to your blog but have been following you on FB for a while. I currently have 1 brahma roo who is the sweetest, nicest boy who doesn't crow alot. His two sons that need to go to a new home because they are starting to crow and fight. :( Their sister who 1/2 brahma, 1/2 olive egger. 1 Ameracauna/Polish Cross Hen who lays small very pointy eggs. 1 Serama hen who went broody less than a month after she started laying and hatched out 2 babies that belong to the Ameracauna and Brahma, and I believe that these little ones are 1 boy and 1 girl. They are over twice the size of their adopted mommy but she still protects them and gives them food. LOL I love each and every one.
ReplyDeleteI subscribed to you months ago. Love your information. I'm a new chicken mama. Got my 3 girls the week before Christmas. I have a RI Red, 1 Black and 1 Red SL. Two of the 3 are laying, giving me 2 eggs every day! I'm already so in love that I will be adding 2 more girls in the spring. Wish me luck!
ReplyDeleteI subscribe via email, We have 11 girls and 2 roosters. We have some Polish, Buffs, Ameracuaunas, and Rhode Island reds. We just ordered 10 more
ReplyDeleteHello! I subscribed to your emails and am also a fan on Facebook. Up until recently, I raised serama, bantam cochin, silkie, naked neck, and bantam and LF polish chickens, as well as coturnix quail, cotton patch geese and ancona ducks. I no longer have access to the ranch where I raised them, so they had to be rehomed. Lucky for me, they all went to live with a friend, so I still get to see them every day and collect any eggs I see. All together, I think there are about 50 chickens....darn that chicken math!
ReplyDeleteI subscribed via email, I have Barred Rocks and Buff Orpingtons, a total of 18 hens. I live on a small hobby farm and have had hens for about 5 years. I so enjoy that they are a part of our little farm along with our 4 horses, 2 cats, and a German Wirehair Pointer. Thanks for all the good information!
ReplyDeleteOooo, I really want one of these!
ReplyDeleteI have been subscribed to you via Google Connect for awhile! YEAH!

ReplyDeleteI love your blog and fb page...I get so much good info from you and your followers. I am studying as fast as I can before we get our own chickens soon
ReplyDeletealready a follower and subscriber hoping to have a chance to win this time
ReplyDeleteI subscribe via email. I have 3 red sex-link backyard hens.
ReplyDeleteI subscribed through email. I am fairly new to the chicken world and am absolutely LOVING it!!! Got my sweet friends in June 2012. We enjoy many backyard evenings watching these crazy ole birds and their hilarious personalities. Each one is a different breed. Welsummer(2), Wyndotte, Americauna, Rhode Island Red, Leghorn, Dominique and a Buff Orphington( 8 hens and 1 rooster). I unfortunately lost two to a mean ole dog but blame myself. It broke my heart but they were given a proper burial, growing up in a funeral home....guess that's what ya do! We are really enjoying their eggs and sharing them with our family and friends. The Egg Skelter is the coolest thing I have seen and would be the perfect displayer for their awesome EGGS!
ReplyDeleteBest of luck to everyone!!!

Another great chance! Thanks Kathy! <3
ReplyDeleteWow, one of these would be great to have. We get lots and lots of eggs from our girls :o) I had a few chickens years ago when I lived in England then wasn't able to have them for many years (code/zoning). After losing our home in the floods in 2011 we put our one hen and rooster in foster care until we were able to get some more chicks. This April we brought Mama(black Cochin) & Harry (mixed ancestry) home & we purchased some chicks from Cackle Hatchery: 5 Silver Wyandotts, 5 Salmon Faverolles, 5 Golden Comets - egg layers all. We also inherited 2 Americanas. Last weekend a woman customer at Tractor Supply asked if I liked chickens, said she had some but didn't like taking care of them and asked if I would like them. So, now we also have another 8 hens of mixed ancestry. We love 'em all. Harry likes them all too....he's the gentlest rooster I've ever known. Never hurts the girls and lets me pick him up and carry him around. Of course we've lost a few from predators but are happily parenting 20 wonderful hens and one ever-loving rooster! We also have a couple of mammoth donkeys, Pepper & Max, who seem to really enjoy the flock running through the barn and pasture picking "thing" that need to be picked.
ReplyDeleteAwesome! My sister in England has one of these. We both learn a lot from your blog!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
I subscribed by email. I do not have any chickens ...yet... I am a part of a group trying to allow chickens within our county limits and hope to be able to soon! I'd love recommendations for a first timer though!
ReplyDeleteSubscribed via RSS. Busy planning my first flock!
ReplyDeleteSubscribed :)
ReplyDeleteI am already following your blog via email (nchillbillygirl@aol.com) and am thoroughly enjoying and getting educated by your topics. Thank you! I also started following MannaPro. Let's see, I have a Barred Rock, black sex links, Welsummers, Silkies, Seramas, black cochins, Columbian Wyandotte bantams, Red Comets, Golden Seabrites, and an Easter Egger. I love my nosy chickens (some are staring at me through the window right now)!
ReplyDeleteHey, I am on the blog and enjoy your accurate reports, great stories and lovely photographs. I have kept poultry of various types for years (25 to be exact), most of which were in snow country. No more frozen water or shovelling for me not - I moved to beautiful Oakland CA 4 years ago and am not looking back. Did not have birds for the first 2 years BUT MISSED THEM SO MUCH WE BUILT A COOP AND STARTED UP AGAIN. My only regret - the coop is smaller than I should have built - how could I have forgotten how chickens tend to MULTIPLY. Love the blog, would enjoy being a winner of this give-away!
ReplyDeleteLove the Egg Skelter. We raise Seramas, as well as numerous layers for our family. Our family eats Paleo and our chickens are essential to that lifestyle.
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome. We just hatched a batch of 6 chicks yesterday in our incubator. And we have 30 adult birds, so we are getting lots of eggs.
ReplyDeleteI recieve your posts by email, facebook and pinterest, I think I also have you listed in my favorites. Since I have Chicken fever now, your site has been VERY informative and VERY helpful. Thank YOU for helping us all learn how to give our chickens a better happier chicken life. I now have 2 Buff Orpingtons Hens, a Buff Roo, A Barred Rock, what seams to be a Rhode Island Red, and not sure what the other hen is yet. She looks more spotted then barred, working on figureing it out. 3 Golden laced Wyandotte and 3 Easter Eggers are to hatch and will be picked up Feb 4th...hopes for more next year. Have a GREAT Day
ReplyDeleteHello, I subscribed by email. I keep barred rocks, buff orpingtons, amerecaunas, red sex link, black copper marans, silkies, and two khaki campbell ducks! I could surely use and egg skelter with all those eggs!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is possibly the most gorgeous way to display each day's collection. Hope to win!
ReplyDeletePhew, I found "below" as in my e-mail there wasn't a below to comment on.
ReplyDeleteI am subscribed via your newsletter via email. We keep marans (golden, white and golden laced), a leghorn, a buff orpington, a black jersey giant, wellsummers, a easter egger and a few other mixed oddballs.
ReplyDeleteMy friend Jennifer referred me to your site. Such wonderful information! I look forward to reading past and future blog posts in my poultry journey. This spring I will be getting my first ducklings and chicks, can't wait! I saw the Egg Skelter on a FB page (I can't remember which one, I follow so many now) and thought it was such a cool idea, so it would be super cool to win one to put in our rustic kitchin and display the girls future eggs. Thanks again!
ReplyDeleteI receive your blog by e-mail. My sister (who lives in England) told me about it - she also has chickens (0and she also has an Egg Skelter!).
ReplyDeleteI have been chicken keeping for almost 2 years. I like variety, so we have a Delaware, 2 Plymouth Barred Rocks, 1 Cuckoo Maron, 2 Red Stars, 2 New Hampshire Reds, 6 Ameraucanas, 2 Buff Orpingtons, 2 Black Australorps, 2 Gold laced Wyandottes, 1 Silver laced Wyandotte, 2 Blue laced Wyandottes and one very happy Silver-laced Wyandotte Cockerel!
I have some Barred Rocks, Buff Orphingtons, Rhode Island Reds, this is my second turn around, learning and trying new things!
ReplyDeleteI love the Chicken Chick and the egg skelter. would love to win one.

My wife and I lived in AR until last July when we moved back to FL. In AR we
ReplyDeletehad about 30 assorted chickens and ducks and geese. I am building a chicken
house now, and will be getting some chicks in the near future. altho we'll only
have about 10 here. Really missing the farm in AR. Love your blog and all
the beautiful pictures.
Thanks,

I subscribed via email. I just started keeping chickens last spring and have followed you on facebook since before they arrived. They are amazing little creatures, and my whole family just loves them! I have 3 White Giants, 3 Light Brahmas, 5 Red Stars, 2 Cornish, 6 White Orpingtons, and 1 Silver Spangled Hamburg. I also just ordered 5 more to arrive this spring, 4 Easter Eggers & 1 Blue Chochin. Thanks for putting on this giveaway!
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever egg display! Yeah, getting my family to figure out my "system" for first in, first out somehow seems beyond their capacity. Right now my girls are on welfare so there is no need for a system. I think they didn't care too much for the variety I added to their diet, in the form of a different daily feed. Back to the tried and true.
ReplyDeleteI subscribed via e-mail but I originally found you via Pinterest. Yeah, love Pinterest, but not as much as I love my chickens!
I have been keeping chickens for a baker's dozen years now (does anyone even know what a baker's dozen is anymore?!) Right now I have 3 buff Orpingtons, 3 ameracaunas, one RIR, one black sexlink, a charcoal bantam cochin and the tiniest mini-bantam hen I have ever seen. She and the bantam cochin belonged to a friend and she gave them to me when I said I wanted a couple bantams. I was hoping for a setter. Then I lost my White cochin rooster and there went my hopes of hatching anything! Need to get another rooster. Have my eyes set on a Black Copper Maran...
I subscribed through email and love reading the daily blogs! I have a variety of chickens - mostly barnyard mutts :) My favorite is my DK Cornish girl, her name is Miss Cranky Pants because she is .. well.. cranky :) I have 3 roosters (mixed with EE breed) and 14 hens - but I also have 14 little mixed chicks in my house in a box - they are 7 days old! And I have 20 eggs in the incubator right now due 2/2 - they're a barnyard mix too. I LOVE raising chickens!
ReplyDeleteLove your blog - I subscribe via email. We are slightly obsessed with our chickers! We live in an area that can swing from below zero to mid 90s, so my hubby put a lot of thought into what breeds we got. So far we have: Rose Comb Brown Leghorns, Buff Orpingtons, Barred Rocks, Partridge Rocks, Rhode Island Reds (they hurt when they peck treats from my hand!) and our friend just gave us the last of his two Red Stars. We love how they each have their own personalities! Thanks for a great blog! - Kelly at Dead End Acres
ReplyDeleteI contacted the lady I purchased my B&W Rooster & Hen from , showed her pictures & she said they are both Wyendottes! YAY!!! For a Happy Pair!!
ReplyDeleteI get your posts via FB and email! I have Tetra tints, Amberlinks, Ameraucanas and buff Orpingtons :-)
ReplyDeleteI subscribe via e-mail. I have 10 golden comets and an easter egger.
ReplyDeleteI have been following you for a while via your blog and also on Facebook. I have been raising chickens for a year now and have over 40, plus a lot of chicks. So very many breeds, Barred Rocks, White Leg horns, Orpingtons, Wyandottes, Cochins, mixed chickens from my own hatches and my favorite Easter Eggers. There are many more breeds but the list is very long.
ReplyDeleteEmail subscriber and fb follower. I have 62 chickens - Australorps, Ameraucanas, Rhode Island Reds, Black Sexed Link, Leghorn, Delaware, Black Minorca, Light Brown Leghorn, Plymouth Barred Rock, Silver Penciled Rock, Turkens, and soon Marans.......then Olive Eggers!
ReplyDeleteGood Morning!!! I subscribed to your blog via google... love anything chickenish and would love a helter skelter for my eggs!! I have 3 Australorps (black) and an old brown hen. They are such characters they just crack me up! One is called Tractor cause she ends up in the chook tractor so often for trying to escape!! Anyway... Australorps are just the best layers ever and I usually get more than 2 dozen eggs from my 4 girls per week!
ReplyDeletecheers from hot hot hot downunder
Michelle
Email subscriber- love taking a chicken break instead of coffee break!
ReplyDeleteSharing a city yard with an Americauna, Speckled Sussex, Australorp, Cuckoo Maran, a silver laced, and a blue laced Wyandotte
This is such a cute design!
ReplyDeleteI'm subscribed via email and have ten Dominique girls that just started laying
I subscribe via email to your blog and just recently started keeping chickens. I have 3 hens; a Barred Plymouth Rock, Wyandotte Blue, and Golden Comet Sex-Link. Thanks for this great opportunity to snag a wonderful gift!
ReplyDeleteI am already subscribe to your newsletter. I have 14 chickens. One roo and 13 hens. Bard rock, silver phoenix, and red sexlinks. I love my chicks and they all have names. Jonni - kdaarch@msn.com
ReplyDeleteI subscribe by email. I have buff orpington, brown leghorn, rhode island reds and americauna.
ReplyDeleteConnected through Google. Oh the breeds I keep: *deep breath* The hens... (10) Black australop, (2) RIR's, (6) Easter Eggers, (6) Polish, (5) California whites, (1) Barred Rock. And 3 roos (one is handicapped!) (6) Guineas and (7) turkeys
ReplyDeleteI subscribed via e-mail. I have 4 Silkies, and 2 Cochin bantams, the Cochins are sisters, one is a Frizzle. I was also, recently given 5 full size hens, and their coop. I am in the process of building them a larger run for spring. They are a Barred Plymouth Rock, a White Rock, a Buff Orpington, a Black Jersey Giant and a Swiss Appenzeller Spitzhausen:) I hope I spelled the breeds correctly, lol. I can pick up and hold all of them. I got my first baby bantam chicks in August of 2012. My 5 "big" girls will be one year old this spring. They are addictive. I din't hesitate one bit, when my neighbor was moving, and gave me his 5 girls.
ReplyDeleteJust subscribed via email !! So Happy a friend told me about your Blog. And would love to be entered into the drawing for one of your egg skelters. I got my chicks and ducks not long after we lost our only son, Hakan age 30, in a horrific tragedy (they said he took his own life). If it weren't for me getting my chicks to raise and take care of I would have gone to bed and possibly never gotten back up again after our son died, many times since my chicks have become adults I have thought about selling or giving them away but I know if I did I would go to bed and sleep all day. They keep me going , my counselor told me to never get rid of them. And The joy they have brought me is unmeasurable, just going out and sitting in the yard watching them brings me joy and calmness that I need. I have a wonderful variety, Marans, Americanas, Silkies, Bared Rocks, Rhode Island Reds, Bantys , and a couple odd ones ( beautiful) that i don't know what they are. I also have 11 Muscovy Ducks. A Friend gave us Two Females and a Male But the rest of the 11 were hatched and raised here. Oh the joy I have had with those baby ducks and seeing them grow up , they ( including the chickens) will follow me all over the yard, they will jump up right next to me and even get in my lap. No I can never get rid of my chickens and ducks, I love them - they are what keeps me from sleeping my life away in my grief over loosing our son. They saved me from that. We get Chicken and Duck eggs daily and have shared them with many. Please enter my name into the drawing. And Thanks so very much. Tammy (kingslynn58@yahoo.com)
ReplyDeleteSubscribed through Google connect.. We have 240 chickens, mostly Rhode Island Reds, Rocks, and Giants. I also have two lovely peacocks coming in June :) Thanks for the wonderful giveaway.

Silver Laced Wyandottes, Rhode Island Reds, New Hampshire Reds, Showgirls, Silkies, Egyptian Fayoumis, Barred Rocks, Columbian Rocks, Ameraucana, Easter Eggers, Seramas, and French Black Copper Marans. WHew!!! lol....
ReplyDeleteI subscribed via email. We mainly have silkies, which I think are perfect for our young children, We also have a show girl, some bantams and a few barn yard mix. I love to watch them all out and about. I almost forgot about the babies that we just got. We just got some baby cochins. Cant wait to have some babies of our own.
ReplyDeleteOOps, forgot the girls. One of each: Buff Orpington, Andalusian, Ameraucana, Red Sex Link, Light Brahma and Gold Laced Wyandotte.
ReplyDeleteI connect via Google. I have several different breeds including Ameraucana, Sussex, Maran, Cochin, Barred Rock, Orpington, Australorp, Barnvelder, Lavender Wyandotte, and Wellsummers to name a few. I am an addict! Thinking of adding ducks this year....hmmmm
ReplyDeleteI posted on this a few days ago and its not here...so here I go again. I subscribed over email. I have 1 Brahma roo named Lrrrr, Ameracauna/Polish X hen named Cheddar Chip, Serama Hen named Gobbles, 2 boys and 1 girl from Lrrrr and my hen Butters who died recently in a Hawk Attack, and 1 boy and 1 girl from Lrrrr and cheddar Chip but hatched and raised by my awesome Serama Mama who went broody less than a month after laying. She disappeared and I thought she was dead but then would periodically show up to eat and I finally found her on a nest under the deck. She is fierce and extremely protective of her brood which are now twice her size but she takes care of them still and makes sure they get food. No one is allowed to pick on them or she will fiercely attack. When she brought them out the first time, my boxer who loves chickens...especially babies...ran up to greet them and my serama chased off my dog who weighs over 60 lbs.
ReplyDeleteI have been subscribed to your site for some time now. I have a mixed flock of Golden Comets, RIR, Silver Laced Wyandotte, & Andulisian & Partridge Rocks. The Egg Skelter would be a wonderful way of keeping the eggs organized & a pretty way to display them also.
ReplyDeleteI am new to your site I have about 10 Rhode Island Reds and 6 Easter Eggers and 20 Bantams I really enjoy the eggs that I receive from my chickens and have really enjoyed your site and have learned a few things I did not know.

ReplyDeleteOh this would be amazing for our girls finally start laying! It's been 7.5 months and I think they're holding out for one of these. lol Right now we have an Ameracauna, Barred Rock, Black Austalorp, Buff Orpington, California White, Gold Star and Rhode Island Red! This spring we're going to add a bearded buff laced Polish, a Silkie, and a silver penciled hamburg. Chickens are definitely the gateway animal to urban farming because we're adding heritage turkeys (burbon reds) this spring and a beehive. I can't wait!!
ReplyDeletePS: I subscribed to your awesome blog through google.
I have tried to enter the last 5 contests, Am I doing something wrong to not see my posts as comments? Above this box it gives me the option to "logout" and in the bottom corner it says "post as" so I am thinking I am logged in.... But I still do not see any comments even after I give it days for the post to be approved. Help!
ReplyDeleteI Follow you on your blog through google email and I also like you on face book. I have old fashioned Rhode Island Red, Welsummer, Olive Eggers, Jersey Giants, Ameraucanas, Muscovy ducks, and several varieties of heritage turkeys.
You always have the best chicken accessories!
ReplyDeleteI subscribed via email.
I started keeping chickens 12 years ago when the local feed store owner gave me my first one - Gwen, who was a Silver Duckwing OEGB. I now have 35 chickens of so many varieties (Welsummer, Easter Egger, Olive Egger, Langshan, Swedish Flower, Basque, Cochin, Polish, Cochin frizzle, Silkie, OEGB, D'Uccle, Barred Rock, Wyandotte, Turken, Saipan, and hopefully a Cream Legbar). To add to the flock this year, I have my eye on a Modern Game, a Show girl, and Black Copper Maran. I love the rainbow of eggs, but most of all, I love their personalities. Sitting out with my hens is one of my best stress-reducers.
Thanks for all your great information and advice. I appreciate the time it takes to get it out there.
I would love one! I have RI and NH Reds, Americaunas, Silkies, Barred Rocks, White Rocks, Tetra Tints, Wheaten Marans, trying to hatch some Araucana...love your blog as you know! Thanks for the opportunity to win. Great Giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI subscribed via email. Currently I have Cuckoo Marans (12), Silver-laced Wyandottes (4), Welsummer (3) and one Hamburg. My parents, next door, also have marans--4 hens and 1 roo. We keep trying to grow their flock but they absolutely reject every other chicken, they've really bonded as a flock.
ReplyDeleteI don't have any chickens yet, but hopefully will have a small flock of black australorps this spring! I'd love to win an egg skelter! I subscribe via email!
ReplyDeleteI follow you on Facebook, and subscribed by email, too! Love your blog and comments - and would love to win this to keep track of my egg order! We have RI Reds, Wyandottes and Buff Orpingtons. Love them all.

ReplyDeleteWe’ve gone Country! And our family and friends think we’ve
got chicken fever. When my husband (John) was diagnosed with cancer, we had
just moved to the country on an acre of land. He started talking about chickens
and goats. Whatever he wants. So we built a pen, bought a coop, and started
looking for chickens. He wanted chickens that laid colored eggs and I wanted
large brown eggs. Our 2 or 3 chickens we had decided on turned into 3 Americuanas
(Col. Sanders, Dumb Cluck, and Chicken Poop) and 3 Rhode Island Reds (BBQ,
Grilled, and Fricasee)…all 2 month old pullets. John tells everyone that the
first egg we got from “our girls” was worth $600. He figures that covered the
cost of the materials for the pen, the coop, feeder, waterer, and all the food
they’d eaten before they started laying. We lock them up at night in their pen
but they free-range during the day with our 2 turkeys (Thomas and Geraldine aka
Tom and Gerry), three 5-month old goats
(Chester, Princess, and Miracle)
and all are watched over by a LGD named Clem. Clem is a Great Pyreness rescue
as are the goats. They are all so much fun. The girls fight for attention as
much as the goats and the turkeys and show jealousy by pecking at whoever is
getting the most attention. John says if he had known years ago how much fun
all these pets were, we would’ve had them when our boys were small. I’ve
connected to the Chicken Chick at Egg Carton Labels thru Facebook. I would love
to win the Egg Skelter to display our eggs in. Right now I have them in egg
cartons that are numbered just to remind us which eggs are the oldest and to
use them first. The Egg Skelter is a fantastic idea and design.
I subscribe via e-mail & follow you on FB. Thank you for sharing your knowledge! I have9 babies who are of mixed breed, Cochin, RIR, Ameraucana.
ReplyDeleteI have gotten more good advice from your blog than from any other site I've seen. First year as a chicken owner....have 5 silkies, 3 hens 2 roos. They were a surprize. My cute little hens are a red and 2 white Nugget, Henny Penny and Chicken Little. The males are a red, Turtle and a black (my fav, but don't tell the others) named Bernie. Was orignally Bernadette, but SURPRIZE! Ha. My little girls have started laying, and th 2 whites have already gone broody once. That was tough on em, especially with the cold her in northern SD. Hope to win the awesome egg skelter Thanks for all you post.
ReplyDeleteI almost got an egg skelter for Christmas but my son couldn't find one so I would love to win this one. I've been a subscriber on RSS feed forever and have 8 chickens, an ailing black australorp--she's a very old lady, 3 RIR's, 2 silver lace wyandotts and 2 buff orpingtons. I've been raising chickens for over 10 years. I am a devoted chicken lady. So much so, my grandkids call me grandma chicken!
ReplyDeleteThanks tons to you and Manna Pro for the great giveaway!
I would love too have one. I have 2 RIR, 1 EE, 1 polish and 2 pullets. I also have a polish rooster and a redstar rooster. I hatched about 40 chicks that are white leghorn, fbcm,fbcm, oe and ameruacana.
ReplyDeleteI subscribe via rss feed. I have buff orpingtons.... and I love em!
ReplyDeleteI'm already an email subscriber, I hope that counts! I love the egg skelter! I never knew what they were called before.
ReplyDeleteI have several Ameraucanas, a Delaware, Red Sex Links, Gold Sex Links, Black Beauties (a black sex link), a Red Leghorn, a Black Copper Marans, a Black Marans/BCM cross, a Java, Welsummers ,2 Silver-Laced Wyandottes, a Gold-Laced Wyandotte, a Buff Brahma (Goldibuff), a Buff Orpington, 2 Cubalayas, a Black Australorp, Cuckoo Marans, Barred Rocks, and several homemade, home-bred crosses, including my gorgeous rooster.
In February or March it will be 3 years since I started keeping chickens, starting with 7 old Ameraucana hens and a rooster with a floppy comb.
We have Rhode Island Re, Aracana, and Bard Rock chickens!
ReplyDeleteIt counts, Jeanmarie! Thanks for participating and good luck!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you did too, Jeanette, thank you!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing that, Tammy. I cannot fathom that loss and am certainly happy to know that you have found some solace in your backyard pets. I have heard lots of people describe them as therapy animals and I believe it to be true. Stay strong and keep loving those chickens and ducks- they need you as much as you need them. ♥
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog! I love your topic. I've always wanted to raise chickens but we live in a suburban neighborhood that doesn't allow agricultural animals. I'd love however to win this egg contraption for my sister who does raise chickens! I subscribed via email.
ReplyDeleteI have a Black Copper Marans you can have, Beth! You just have to come and get him. He's stunning!
ReplyDeleteThank you, George! Enjoy your new pets, I'm glad you are able to get back into chicken-keeping.
ReplyDeleteHappy to help, Melody! Thank you for participating in the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Jamie!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for participating in the giveaway, Francesca and for being with me on my blog and Facebook page!
ReplyDeleteStart doing all the reading you can in books written by reputable authors such as Gail Damerow. Once you have a feel for the basics, I would subscribe to Backyardchickens.com it is a wonderful source of great information, not all of it accurate, as with many online communities, but you'll soon know enough to begin discerning what's credible, what's not and what your own preferences are.
ReplyDeleteGood luck to you in your fight against the county!
Sounds like you have your hands FULL, Bonnie! Good for you!
ReplyDeleteGood for you, Ann. Research makes a BIG difference in the success of your chicken-keeping adventure. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteThe Egg Skelter is HERE already, Julie! You can find them at Manna Pro online!
ReplyDeleteSO exciting Lakeeissa! You're going to love them. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteHi Michele! If you can let me know where you live, I can recommend some breeds for you. Visit my Facebook page and give me some more information about why you want chickens and I can narrow it down a little bit for you.
ReplyDeleteThanks Leighann! It's nice to have you here. You're a good egg to try to win this for your sister. ♥
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! I'd love to hear the stories behind the names! lol
ReplyDeleteI have 12 hens which consists of white rocks, barred rocks and partridge rocks and 3 easter eggers and 2 I hatched which one was an easter egger/isa brown mix and the other an easter egger/black sex link mix. I have 3 easter egger roosters too many also. :\
