I have a brood Leann's Adopt Me Bargain chicks from Meyer Hatchery, and I need a little help identifying chicks. This is only a few of them, I will take pictures of the rest when I get the chance. They are a little over 3 weeks old.
1st: Here's Cheesecake. Pretty sure he's a rooster.

Okay, so this game pretty much goes like this. You take a screenshot of a scene from an animated show or a comic you like and have someone who doesn't watch it try an explain what's happening in the scene. When you try and explain you have to post your own and so on, and hopefully we will all...
So, I would really, really like to get more chicks. I have been wanting to get more chicks for ages now. It's winter here but I have an idea of how to keep them warm. So my idea is, I take my new large brooder, it has a wood roof, screen walls (I would be covering two of the walls with cardboard...
I think I know what genders they are and just wanna see what you guys think. With breeds, no idea. 3 weeks old.
Pullet?
Cockerel?

It was my first time incubating and my 12 chicks are just a few days old. I had already lost a chick but because she was too cold. This one's different though and the brooder is now in a room that is so warm it's hard to stand it. I found it kind of sprawled out and gasping for air with it's...

I have a huge cage. It is one huge aquarium (At least 35 gallons) and 2 bin cages. It's all connected with hamster tubes. I have a ton of hideaways and hiding spots too. I only have 1 food bowl and 1 water bowl, will I need to have 2 of both? Will they fight and claim the different cages as...

My new 6 week old partridge silkie chick was suppose to be a cockerel but I am not sure. His names Hagrid cause he has a beard. But their is a slim chance Hagrid is a girl. What do you guys think?
Yesterday we finished our coop by building the door! WOO! Then today I swept out the coop, and put bedding in the coop, and got all the roosts and nesting boxes in place. Tonight we went out and grabbed them when they where roosting in their old coop and 'Kidnapped them' From the old coop and...
So long story short, my family bought a house and inherited all the very old animals living there already, adding to our number of pets. Lot of the animals died of natural causes and we're left with only 2 now, a sheep and a turkey. I have recently noticed out old, sweet female turkey has...
I REALLY want some frizzle seramas, but I have never had a frizzle and heard they can't trap heat in there feathers like smooth chickens can. And I am guessing a seramas tiny size will make them even colder. So, if I get frizzled seramas, could I make them little chicken jackets for winter? I...
I can't figure out what my only black pullet, Silva, is. I kept thinking she's one breed then realizing she looks more like another. I have figured out what all my other's are, but not her. All the other black chicks I had died of Mereks, she's the only survivor. She has a very small single...
I can't find a website were I can order all of these breeds of chickens, I want to be able to order eggs for hatching.
I want:
Seramas
Frizzle Seramas
Sebrights
Booted Bantams
Silkies
Favorolles
Swedish Flower Chickens
Easter Eggers
Black Copper Marans
Golden Laced Wyandottes
Cream Legbars...
We have a golden eagle hanging around my chickens. And we are getting pigeons AND hatching eggs once it's spring again.. How can we get it to go away? It already ate my dear Serama. And a old rooster. I hate that bird. I hate that bird as much as anyone can hate a eagle. HOW CAN I GET RID OF IT?

I would like to get some pigeons, but I don't know much about them. I need info. Coop designs, common breeds of pigeons, common must-know things, etc. Oh, and here's some questions of mine:
-How often do they lay eggs? Will they raise chicks in a home made nesting box?
-Are wire floors okay...
