I have a very handsome frizzle bantam Cochin who was very sweet but has become suddenly a monster. He attacks my husband and I daily when we feed him or the hens daily. Snacks or just walking around, doesn’t matter. Problem is, he’s a great rooster. He herds the girls in at night, tells them...

Have a 4 1/2 month GC who quit laying 3 or 4 days ago but regularly tried to lay in hee usual spot. I noticed yesterday she was fluffed up and tail down and her butt was pulsating so we looked up egg bound and started doing epsom salt baths. We all put lube in a dropper up her as well and did...

So my GC just started laying a few weeks ago and later everyday without fail. We added 3 pullets, 3 months old roughly and she was the only hen and she was invited them in with open arms. She was laying in a nesting box until they came and then decided they were too noisy and chose a spot in the...

Okay, so I have 1 golden comet, 1 barred rock, 1 RIR and an ISA brown all under four months with a frizzle cochin and they are all finally on the same page. I have had the GC and the rooster for a couple months and just added the 3 month old pullets a few weeks ago and everyone seems to be...

I was given 2 chicks and told they were welsummers. But every picture I have seen of a welsummer cockerel does not look like this boy. They are also very small like tiny, the size of my Cochin. Is this normal? Are they bantams? Are they even welsummers? I also have I think a cockerel black...

So. My golden comet Lola has laid her first egg! She made an odd noise coming out her coop and lo and behold in her nesting box was a little brown egg. We were eggstatic! There were are only two chicken in our flock right now besides her boyfriend a frizzle Cochin named Tony. We took the egg in...

Okay. This probably sounds crazy. I was given 11 baby chicks of various ages in an emergency situation. I had the land and this person was moving and couldn’t start her flock as planned. She had bought chicks from various places and now I have 8 suspected roosters. 2 polish Roos, 1 silkie roo (I...

Hello and TIA! This is my favorite chick out of the three batches I got gifted in an emergency situation. This one is the friendliest of them and I will be devastated if she is rooster. I might keep her if she is but I already have a Cochin frizzle bantam roo and I’m not sure that will work...

I ended up with 4 6 week old Roos from a friend somehow (it was an emergency situation) and today was their first excursion outside. It was 65 outside and very beautiful. They were out in the pen today for about 4 hours. There are 3 polish Roos and a silkie. It seemed like they really enjoyed...

I recently just moved to one acre and it came with a chicken coop and the previous owners left behind a frizzle rooster and saxony duck! They were best friends and I fell in love immediately! Unfortunately the duck was eaten yesterday by a coyote (he liked to scoot under the gate) and I went out...

Hello! Brand new chicken owner here! Recently renovated a coop on my property and acquired a frizzle rooster and today 2 14 week old golden comet hens. My husband told me when he was locking the coop that the hens were sleeping on top of the nesting boxes way up high, while my rooster was way...
