It does look like a frizzle. Funny, just today I read that it is, indeed, a thing quail can have as well as chickens. Sweet looking girl.

I had ordered from JM Farms. Spoke to Robby and he told me it would be about 2 weeks before they shipped. It did take longer. But I got them about a month after we spoke. They had been very backed up. In the meantime, being impatient by nature, I had ordered some "JM Farms" jumbo...

I had that happen this summer when I didn't snap the lid down tight. The food wasn't "off", it's just an extra source of protein. They were digging through trying to find them. LOL

I am so sorry that happened. Really wanted to be wrong. We have a hardware cloth covered coop too. I have a latch that's hard for me to latch. We have dogs baking near then all day and night if something alerts them. And I still watch for them. Went to the backyard near their coop lady night...

Thanks for the reply. I didn't realize they were doing that until recently. One jumped up and I started watching to see if it was a bug on there or what. Nope. The seeds. They don't seem to be any worse for it, but if there is an underlying cumulative effect, I'd certainly like to know and...

Following. Would also love to know!

I know this is an old thread. Came across it while googling "is lantana poisonous to chickens". I'm checking because as we live in South Mississippi, and it is EVERYWHERE! I remember as a kid, we called it ham and eggs plant. No idea why. Anyway, my chickens will jump up to grab the ripe...

LOL That was my theory! I am the main care-taker. My husband will be gone weeks at a time. This is the first time he's really fooled with them. And it's been a good bit lately. He'll take them treats and sit and watch chicken tv now. But I'm definitely the mama in a couple of ways. I'm...

Okay, we have a young flock, about 4 months old. My Buff Orpington rooster, has started crowing. But only when my husband lets them out. He never crows in front of me. What gives? Yesterday morning, I waited around the corner so I could hear our "big boy" crowing. He started crowing, as...

Oh, what beauties!

The second one is a roo for sure. Looks exactly like my Barry did at that age (see my profile pic). And he's definitely roo! BTW - the third one, I'd say definitely pullet.

My little cockerel BO, who looks maybe a couple of weeks older, does exactly this same thing! Love them!

Love your chickens! So cute. Love the Polish. Don't have anything "exotic" myself. One day...

I'm in your area. Unfortunately, I work weekends and have a small flock that in totally attached to!but would love to get to know people in the area with chickens. Am interested in meat birds but don't have the knowledg/experience to tackle myself.

Oh, jeez. Me too. Love this little guy. And he's so calm and good with people and his "flock". Today, I had them out in the run - the big girls and this guy. Let the littles out in the coop to run around. He was trying to get back into the coop to get them when he realized they were out. I...

I'm on that facebook page too. And lots of others now! It's almost as addictive as chickens!

That's so great that he helped you though! Mine would do it too, griping the whole way! LoL But he'd do it if it's within reason and makes me happy. Congrats on the pen. Looks great. I so need extra space. Separate pens that is. The one has lots of room. But, need to have different areas...

With this cockerel, I cannot do that. He is trying to kill them. Flat out. My hope is that as they are still growing really fast and the older crew are growing a bit more slowly now, maybe they will catch up a bit size wise to hold their own. Right now, there is no way I could do it. The...

That is my thinking as well. I guess I didn't think such a calm bird would be so violent with something so small that is also chicken. Have them in there for just that purpose, integration. Just really surprised as he doesn't act terribly territorial or do other things I hear of roosters...
