What breed is RUE?

We have 3 White Rocks, 3 Buff Rocks, 6 Barred Rocks and 10 Partridge Rocks. We also have 3 Brown Leghorns ( 1roo and 2 pullets)and 2 Silver Laced Wyandotte Roosters. Out of them all the Brown Leghorn rooster and 2 Buffs, and 4 Barred are the tamest. They all have had the same amount of contact...

Now I am no expert on poultry. Just making sure that's clear. Other than 40 years ago with my grandparents chickens on the farm I have had really no experience with them other than as food. We decided in Feb of 2013 to get us some and see if we liked them. Well we didn't.....We love them. It is...

No space isn't an issue I converted a 15x40 concrete dog kennel with a drain and septic tanks into my coops. Right now we have 4 10x10 coops with 10x50 runs. Plus on w/e and holidays they free range all day. They get let out each evening around 4:00 till dark. All we have to do is go out and...

We got our first birds back in Feb. Started out with an order for 3 White Rocks, 3 Buff Rocks, 3 Barred Rocks and 1 Partridge Rock. The people at Ideal asked us if we wanted to add males for warmth. OK sure no problem only I left something out. We wanted to get 3 Partridge Rock hens but they had...

Thanks for all the help. They both have long lifes planned for them they are tame and like all of my chickens have funny personalities. They just like being with each other. Not sure cause they where raised together or cause they we're the only 2 that survived the raid. Had all of them penned...

h Here is both of them again. They don't ever want to cooperate when I try to take pics. The one with the rose comb has a lot more and brighter specs on his chest. The one with single comb has about the same they're just not as big. Whats the chances that they are related? We are keeping...

They came as warmth from my spring order from Ideal Poultry. There we're 8 of them lost 1 at day 4 and 5 at 3 months. We kinda got attached to these 2 and are keeping them from the freezer. We originally thought they where Silver Laced Wyandottes but as you can see 1 has a straight comb and the...

I bought a bunch of "rock" pullets back in February and we had them send "warmth" with them. We lost 7 of the warmth chickens that we believed where Silver Laced Wyandotte's. I have 2 left but there is some confusion. 1 has a rose comb so we're sure that he is a SLW. The other has a straight...

No mine are like piranhas.

For ten dollars would you lay down and have scratch poured on you and have 23 chickens turned out?
