roosters

Red frizzle Cochin bantam for $10, and a gold laced/partridge(I am pretty sure he is gold laced) Cochin bantam for $5. They are about two months old, raised together, and have been in outside coop for a few nights (at about 59 degrees). If you interested in the frizzle please keep in mind that...

Just had a hatch of baby ducks the last time this happened I was away and the rats or the drake and other duck got them all in a day according to my friend that was feeding them. So I found this early and brought them inside with mom overnight. However I have a rat proof small house I can put...

5/24/19 We have excess chix my daughter hatched 5 months ago for a biology experiment, including ROOSTERS - a bantam calico cochin, a tall, handsome favarolle, and a beautiful brown silky. Looking for good homes. We also have some hens we will give away. Please send messages if you are interested !

Hey guys, I am hoping that I found the right forum to post this. I live in South Georgia and got a few ameracauna chicks about a month ago. There’s these two that stand out and I am wondering if they’re both roosters. What do y’all think?

Hey guys, my name is Logan Roy. My wife and I got married in December last year. When she and the kids moved in two years ago, she convinced me to get chickens, well, it wasn’t arm twisting. It was more, hey let’s get chickens and I was more let’s go to tractor supply with puppy dog eyes. Haha...

UPDATE: All boys have a new home together I am in need of giving these 3 roosters a new home since I have 8 other boys. They are 17 1/2 weeks old. They can be re-homed separately and I can only re-home to local people such as Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, and Virginia. I will not be...

I hatched white legbar, Black Copper Marans and silkie cockerels. I am planning on keeping 3 silkies, one BCM and the white legbar in a separate coop/run from the girls. They were hatched together and brooded together for a couple of weeks. However, they are now in separate brooders (silkies in...

Hi everyone. I have been raising backyard chickens since 2009. Last year after losing the last of our girls, we decided that we would try raising silkies. I bought what was supposed to be a sexed run ( now I know determining silkie sex is very difficult) of beautiful silkies. To our...

Anywhere I can get dirt for my chickens cage with no chemicals in it?

By a couple different incidents, we have ended up with 2 roosters. At first it was fine but now they fight. Any way to make that work peacefully, short of keeping them separated (which is what we are doing now). Thank you for your advice.

Greetings: I have fry pan buff orpington and barred rock boys. I know they likely will not be as succulent as the meaty ladies I raised last year, but I want to give them every chance at that level of yumminess. Is a 24% chick starter feed on to give for the remaining 3 weeks before I look at...

I bought 4 Buff Brahama pullets or so I thought. They were all the same size now at 4 weeks old one is so much bigger and taller than the others and is kind of aggressive towards the others. Could this one be a roo?

That are different from hens? I just got my first rooster (a tiny little Japanese bantam or Serama someone threw over my fence) and I want to give him the best chance possible with my big girls. I know hens need oyster shell and such, but do roosters have any differing nutrition needs?

Greetings all. New to the forums and forums in general but after a lot of contemplating I finally decided to ask the online experts for any opinions on my situation as follows. We have had a rooster and 9 hens for a few years with no real issues. We had a new rooster come into our life...

4 roosters need a new home. These fellas are mixed breed, 1 yr old in April. We only have 6 hens and they are overwhelmed by the cocks! We are located near Yale, Wa and can meet in Woodland, Wa or surroundings.

At the end of last summer, we bought chicks and ended up with two turken roosters in the mix. One stayed here with us, and has been a relatively quiet boy, with his fellow flock of 9 hens. The other rooster went to live with the person we had split the hatch with. Today she decided he's too much...
