Need to rehome this guy because we cannot have roosters where we live. He’s about 5 weeks old. Lmk if you’re interested!

Hey! Not sure if this is helpful, but here’s some pictures of my 2 female Bielefelders as chicks.

Thanks everyone! My husband was in denial that we ended up with a cockerel. They were supposed to be pullets!

Hey there! These Rhode Island’s reds are about 5 weeks old. Based on the comb and waddle it looks like I have one pullet and one cockerel. Does that seem right? Thoughts? Thanks!

So interesting! I have a EE that just started laying today, and in the last few days I noticed how vibrant red her comb was compared to before. Makes sense now!

She started laying — and laid 2 eggs right away. Green eggs! A little bummed they aren’t blue, but green is cool too!

She is beautiful! Yes, mine kept one leg up just like yours is in the picture. Both my hens that were injured are about 4 months old and haven’t stated laying yet so we didn’t have to worry about that. yes about a whole week— which wasn’t ideal but needed. A few days in we let them out of...

Hey! They are doing much better. We isolated them for a week to heal. We widened the roosting bar and added a ladder. We also made sure we had some more wood shavings to cover the floor of the coop for them to land on. Hopefully yours can be healed and feeling better soon too!

P.S. I have them isolated and inside since it’s so hot out. They are both eating and drinking.

Hi, one of my chickens has been limping for a couple of days and will just lay down to rest. The other chicken just started limping. Adding picture of foot. It’s the right one. It’s been curling up. No visible injuries. Could this illness? Any tips or information is helpful. I have no idea...

Yes I’m so excited to see the colors of their eggs when they start laying!

Hey, thanks for the response! I just looked up blue ameraucanas, and if I didn’t know better I would think the images that came up were of my own chickens!

Yes I agree- the muffs were making me suspicious that they aren’t blue rocks. Thanks for the reply!

Hi! What breed do you think she is? Or just a mix? She’s about 3 months old. We were told from the people we got her and a couple others from that they’re blue rocks, but not sure. Thanks!

That’s a relief! Thanks for the response!
