We got this little one from the bantam bin at TSC with a bunch of silkies. Looks like a D'Uccle to me, but I've only owned Mille Fleurs. Also, I'm on the edge about his/her sex, so any ideas there would be appreciated as well.

This is a courtesy post for a friend. She got a whole bunch of sebrights, and these two just don't look like the others. Are they just off-colored golden sebrights, or are they something else? Chick 1: Chick 2:

I keep a fairly small flock, and I've been basically been buying Dumor or 'whatever's there' from TSC and Rural King. However, I'd really like to give my chickens something healthier. Not because I'm dissatisfied with their health as it is, or with the quality of my feed (I wouldn't know any...

Okay, so I've had many people in my nearly-urban suburban neighborhood take a huge interest in my chickens. Everyone knows where the 'chicken house' is and most of the neighborhood kids know my chickens by name - I encourage this so that there's usually someone around that is partial to my...

So I let my young flock (just old enough to be out of the brooder) out of their run for a little free-range time in my small, suburban backyard. I went inside to refill their waterer and came out to two pullets missing! Beside my house I found the black tail of my australorp, completely with...

Okay, so Rural King is selling what they're calling 'Grey Leghorns.' Now Rural King is normally pretty good with naming their birds (their "Americaunas" say Easter Egger under the name) but I can't find a lot on Grey Leghorns. I don't know a lot about Leghorns, but I always thought they were...

Okay, so my brooder's all set up and has a nice batch of 6 chicks. However, due to chicken math, I'll be needing some more. I'm looking for these breeds: Cochins (LF pref but will consider Banties) Silkies Polish Sizzle Hamburg D'Uccle Non-SL/GL Wyandottes (BLR, Partridge, etc) Anything...

Okay, so currently I have one hen (started with 6, but an opossum got into my backyard coop, so I moved the remaining Roo and Hen to the farm, where the bantie roo was picked off by an unknown nocturnal predator. But I digress) who is COMPLETELY free range. At night she roosts on the partial...

Hmm, well, my girls aren't quite laying, and when they do, it probably won't be enough to sell. However, I am curious about anyone who has experience selling eggs in the city: not New York, New York sort of city, but the kind where the house next to you is literally right NEXT to you. Is there...

I currently have 4 young chickies, one which is quite obviously a roo (the D'Uccle), so will be transplanted to the horse farm ^^. The rest are unknown, but assuming they are all pullets, I have what you can see in my siggy. So, I need to know if the remaining 3 (I never plan on having more than...

Approx 3-week-old Silkie chick. She lives in an outdoor brooder with 3 other chicks, enclosed coop-brooder with heat lamp, access to a run during the day. Woke up this morning, went out to check on the chicks, and the little silkie was slightly separated from the others, cheeping loudly and...

I know, I know, it's my first post. I'm actually here all the time, just reading what other people have to say. Anyway, here's my issue; I just bought a random mix of chicks to start as pets, having just lost mine to neighborhood dogs (yes, I just bought a bigger, stronger coop for them) and...
