    Unique Chicken Eyes

    I just thought I'd post a picture of my baby Cinder's beautiful eyes! She's a Sapphire Gem with central heterochromia. She's also my sweet little shadow, one of the three babies I hand raised this summer who follows me everywhere. ❤️ Anyone else have a chicken with unique eyes? I'd love to...

    Barred Rock...ish

    Just had to share the funny little anomaly that is Owl, our little Barred Plymouth Rock girl. When she was a chick, she had just a bit of fluff on both her legs that went away fairly quickly. But now, at 8 weeks, she has grown two little feathers on only one foot. It is the funniest looking...

    Confirm my suspicions?

    Hello! So I have 6½ week old chicks that I have hand raised as our broody bantam rejected them completely. I have 2 black Australorps, 1 Buff Orpington, and 1 Easter Egger (was sold as an Araucana but I'm fairly certain that's not the case) All were bought at a local feed store and were marked...

    Longtime Lurker!

    Just thought I'd introduce myself now that I've officially joined! (1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? We have had chickens for that past four years, the first five we "inherited" as adult hens when we bought our house 😁 Unfortunately, two of our original flock have...
