I moved mine out to the coop at around 6 weeks. But very soon after the first couple of weeks I would let them have a lot of time outside playing on the dirt (supervised of course). It’s good for them to stay clean and strong. I liked to put oregano or garlic in their water every now and then…...

Sadly the larger one was attacked by my dog and died before I could know, but it was still much larger than the other, most likely it was a male. The little one grew up just fine and when she was teenager I gave her away to my friend along with others (which was the plan all along) - I heard...

I have the same issue with two chickens. A Wyandotte and a cream legbar. They were born in august 2020 and laid eggs all 2021 until end of the year molt. Our dogs chased them and they got scared but not hurt in Dec. 2021 (while molting). In 2022 I got 3 eggs from the cream legbar and I think 2...

Yes. I’ve been waiting for it to get better. Still getting eggs with blood, but it’s been only a week or so... but she might be healing slowly. I’m hoping.

I know... I feel bad for her, she is tiny and her body is making “fat” round eggs, my neighbor has some bantams and they make elongated “skinny” eggs... still a good amount of blood almost every time. She seems happy and healthy other than that...

Yes. They are very calm when they are already on their roosts for the night. 😜

She has just started laying a few days ago, she’s laid a total of 3 eggs and they were all with blood. The pictures show two of them, I think the other one had a little bit less.

organic layer feed, oyster shells in a separate dish, some dried oregano in a separate dish, and they free range an hour or so. And I use a little bit of scratch grains to call them back into the run. Do u think something could be missing or too much?

I checked her vent, it looks normal, thankfully.

I have a bantam Easter Egger (I got her from mypetchicken, she is almost 7 months old), who just started laying, she has laid 3 eggs total, in 4 days, seem kind of large for a bantam, with a good amount of blood on the egg shell.... I know it is normal but I feel bad for her and am wondering if...

Thank you for your input 😀 The Orpingtons are cute and fluffy but I don’t think they are bigger than the Cochin that I already have for example. I was mainly wondering if the Brahma would be bigger than the Cochin since my daughter is really interested in having a huge fluffy bird 😆(since the...

Which one gets bigger in general? I want to get one from mypetchicken cause I’m also getting a Couple of bantams and they sex them. My daughter wants the biggest fluffiest chicken possible. I have a white Cochin already and she is beautiful, not fully grown yet so I’m wondering if the Brahma...

I got both these eggs from my same olive Egger.
