Hey everyone! So, to preface this series of questions, I'd like to point out that the chickens we have are for my daughter's 4-H project. There are 20 of them, all different breeds. I probably don't need to list all the breeds but some of the ones we have are EE's, SLW, Cochins, Brahmas...

Okay...so here's the situation. Between ordering through the mail and by process of 'chicken math' obtained chicks from two different private breeders, we ended up with 19 chicks total. All are supposed to be pullets. I've posted pics of my most suspect chick that I believe is a roo in another...

Hello again everyone! A few weeks ago, I posted pics of my little barred rock chick. It was supposed to be a pullet but I started thinking it might be a roo by the size of it's comb. Here s(he) is at 2 1/2 weeks old.... Now at around 5 1/2 weeks, this is what s(he) looks like... Since all...

Okay, I've been thinking about this question a lot and been mulling over a tactful way to ask. I've read countless pages of threads on this forum for the past month...ever since my daughter decided that she wanted to show chicks for 4-H. We are both rank newbies at 4-H, showing and even raising...

Hello all you wonderful chicken people! I'm going to use this fantastic template that was provided to share information about myself....cause I really have no idea what to say. I'm horrible like that. However, if there is anything else you want to know about me, please ask! I don't mind talking...

Love this forum....long time lurker, first time poster! I have a few questions about our newest family members. I'm hoping someone will be so kind as to offer up some knowledge to me! 12 happy and healthy baby chicks arrived this morning and are settling into their new home. They all made it...
