I've been to the local feed stores and I can't seem to find a kill cone for my 30 + lbs turkey. I was thinking of making one but with his weight I'll have to do some welding to make it sturdy enough. I've looked online but I'd rather buy it in person so I can investigate if it'd be strong...

Anyone in the Phoenix area have any laying hens they are willing to sell? Need to add to the flock.

I have 24 week old black australorps and still no eggs. They don't get scraps very often. But they are on layer feed (16%) and have 24/7 access to oyster shells. A month ago we introduced 4 12 week old red sex links so our 2 roosterswouldn't stress out or over breed the black australorps. (We...

So I planned only having 1 rooster (named Mick he was supposed to be a black australorp and we'll he wasn't) and one of my hens ended up being a decent size black australorp. They are 22 weeks now and we needed to get more hens if we wanted to keep both of them. So now we have more hens that are...

Yes both roo's are kept with them. Only one of the roo's try's from time to time but he's a bit smaller than the hens so he gets told what's up. The bigger roo has never tried anything and we are out there a lot. He keeps to himself 99.9% of the time. It is pretty hot where I live (north of...

I was told not to give them layers till I saw the first egg by a few people and then I had more people saying to give them layers as soon as they turn 16 weeks. so I waited till they were about 19 weeks. I have also been doing oyster shells that they have been eating (not tons now that they are...

I have 3 hens (black australorps) that are 22 week and I haven't seen an egg yet. I have been starting to think that maybe my turkey is getting it first? I don't know why else I wouldn't have an egg from one of those three? I do have 2 roos (one was supposed to be a hen but mistakes happen) so...

Yesterday while we were picking up feed, my son pointed out that our rooster looks just like the rooster on the Nutrena Naturewise Feather Fixer Feed. Does anyone know what type of rooster that is? The back rooster is the one I am talking about

We have Black Australorps. One of our roosters might be an Iowa Blue. But all overs are and will be black australorps. For now :)

The majority of those hens in that link look like Australorps. That's what we were hoping he would be. When we got him he was 2 days old mixed with assorted roosters. One our hens turned out to be a rooster so we do have an australorp rooster but I'd just like to know what he is. But he will...

Hello we are new to the whole backyard chickens. Back in March we got what we thought were 5 hens, 1 rooster, and 2 turkeys. Abut a mobth ago I started to notice that one of the "hens" was in fact a rooster. So now we have 2 roosters. We now only have 3 hens (one passed away when we first got...

Looks just like my girls. They're all Black Australorps.

Can you see it now?

When we picked out our flock the roosters were assorted. I picked the one that looked most like the Black Australorp chicks. Now that they're older I can Mick Dundee is not like the rest. Also he has a brother that was supposed to be a lady friend. (But they get along great for now and the...
