Leghorns are great egg laying chickens. They are friendly to other Leghorns and can easily fly. The only problems is that they are bad in the pecking order and they can make a mess of the yard....
I will start by saying that I love Australorps. In fact, my very favorite hen is an Australorp. She is such a sweet chicken and just let's you walk right up to her to pick her up. She doesn't run...
seem like a good breed, if i had the room i would probably raise a batch of them they seem like they would be a good 4h starter show bird...considering i dont see many of this breed in my class...
its a feed scooper it cant be perfect but over all when every thing is said an done i love mine its great its starting to show a little wear an tear but its to be expected i have had it for 4...
1 OF MY CHICKS GOT PLAYED WIT BY MYOG DOSE NOT LOOK GOOD HE IS BREATHING BUT I THINK HE IS INCOMA I NEACK IS LIMP HE WLL DRINK WATER HE CAN NOT STAND UP HE ONLY MOVES HIS LEGS AND SWALLOWS PLESA HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Put the baby in a nice, dark, warm, quiet place. It's possible that it is only in shock. Be sure to leave water and food with it. Might take a few days to come around. If it has internal injuries or broken neck, then there's really not much you can do.
Keep a close eye on baby, give TONS of TLC...stroking, talking to it...give a little stuffed animal to snuggle with or even a piece of polar fleece......and now the wait begins...hopefully there is no permanent damage. ALSO, keep dog & babie chicks SEPARATED always!
I learned this the hard way too...LOL
