So if my hens have been around a rooster that I don't want offspring from. How long does it take her to pass those eggs he fertilized? There's a new rooster n there now that I watch to harch some with

I haven't ch I haven't checked him over that well. It's possible. I was just wondering. They don't look the same without them!

Got a new rooster today. His tail feathers are missing. Owner said it was because the other birds plucked them out. Will they grown back?

Thanks everyone.

I agree totally. I got the rooster from his dad yesterday. And he also helped me with my coupe that day. So maybe he thought he was doing me a favor by letting tbem out. I may have to lock the coupe if it's a reoccurring problem.

So I acquired a new rooster yesterday..I had him separated from all the other chickens and the other rooster n a coupe by himself. My neighbor decides to let my chickens out while I'm at work. He lets the buff Cochin rooster out and the barnyard mix rooster jumps all over him. The buff is a good...

Yes he has It's hard to tell if he's a buff orpington or a buff cochin. If he has feathers on his feet then he is a cochin, if not then he is an orpington. Either way you're lucky. Both of those breeds are amazing roosters. Yes he has feathers on his feet and the longest spurs I ever seen...

Mis Easter Eggers are not a recognized breed. They're mixes that usually lay colored eggs. But yes, EE x EE = EE. [/quotex Mixes of what tho? Would a Americana hen and a barnyard mix rooster make a EE?

So what is an Easter egger's breed? I can't find a definite answer. Stupid question....Easter egg rooster and Easter egg hen=Easter egg chicks correct??

So I need to candle thru the big end or the pointy end?

These are 2 different eggs. Do they look normal? Sunday will be the 7th day. I have a few that I know they are questionable. I can see the veins in these.

At what age do hens usually stop laying. And after they stop what do most of u guys do with them? Thanks
