I was outside with my girls and my buff orphington squatted to poop but an egg yolk came out. What does this mean and do I need to do anything about this? Thanks in advance!!

I was taking pictures of my girls establishing their pecking order yesterday, and made it into a ridiculous blog post. Thought I would share because it makes me laugh (I'm easily entertained, haha) http://livelovechickens.blogspot.com/2015/08/chicken-fight.html

I'm uploading this from my phone so hope it works! Can someone tell me if my light brahma is a pullet?? Crossing my fingers! Thanks in advance!

I couldn't find anything to say if this is allowed or not, so if it's not, please let me know! My husband made a temperature controlled heat lamp and I wanted to share on here in case anyone else is interested in making one. I would just copy and paste the instructions on here, but this is way...

That's right... not the other way around. I have a Plymouth Rock that keeps trying to show my chihuahua that she's the head of the flock by pecking at her, chasing her, etc. My dog will "take it" most of the time, but she has fought back twice now. I'm afraid my dog will have enough before long...

Anyone have any idea what kinda chick this is? I asked for a Welsummer & Light Brahma and got this one instead of the Brahma. I'm thinking Americauna?? She is about a week old, and is tiny.

I've had a bunch of mixed impressions of this "girl." 12 week old Plymouth Barred rock.

Any guesses what this girl could be crossed with? She's 11 weeks old and was supposed to be full buff orphington, but I have my doubts. Thanks in advance!

My two-year-old accidentally dropped something pretty heavy on my Betsy girl (9 week old RIR), and she can barely get around. It looks like her left leg can't move at all, but she is able to move enough and balance to make it a short distance to her food and water. She seems to be in pretty good...

This may be a dumb question but... My husband and I are going to be installing a 6' privacy fence (we have a 3 ft picket fence right now) and I was wondering if I'll still have to clip my chickens' wings with the fence this high? I have an Orphington, Plymouth Rock, Wyandotte, Black sexlink, and...

Any new guesses on if these 5 girls are still girls? Thanks in advance! I'll be crazy until I know for sure! Dolly - 5 weeks. Plymouth barred rock. Amelia -- 4 weeks, Wyandotte Betsy -- 5 weeks. Rhode Island Red Helen -- 4 weeks. Buff orphington So I thought that...

My 3-week-old Rhode Island Red started opening her mouth wide every once and a while... mostly once we get her out of the brooder. No runny nose or acting lethargic or anything. Here's a blurry picture, plus one where she's looking normal... Hoping she isn't sick or getting ready to crow!

These babies are still young, so I'm sure it's still too early to tell one some of them, but I thought some of you may be able to tell on a couple? I'm super paranoid about it, and trying not to get too attached in case I have to take one (or more, oh no!) back to the hatchery. Also, if you are...

Hi everyone! My name is Morgan and I just got 5 chicks on Saturday..a Rhode Island Red, Buff Orphington, Silver Laced Wynadotte, Plymouth Barred Rock, and Black Sexlink. I'm super excited about them, although I am a little nervous about keeping them safe/warm once they are moved outside, and...
