    GRAPHIC PICS of my day learning to caponize

    Hey everyone, I was wondering if anyone knows of any poultry specialist in Colorado who could caponize a rooster. I live in Littleton and have a 5 month old cockerel who we'd like to caponize.

    This is probably the most active Colorado-specific thread on this site, so forgive me that I cross-posted this. I have a general question about finding a place for our 12 week Ameraucana rooster -- rescues, farms, etc. I didn't put anything in here pleading for people to take in the bird. We're...

    Colorado?

    Hey everyone. I have a 12 week old Ameraucana rooster (cockerel) that's in need of a new home. We're allowed to have hens but no roosters, as is common. We didn't mean to buy a rooster, but we knew it was a crapshoot whether we'd actually get a pullet. We've raised him from a little guy and he's...

    12 Week Old Ameraucana Rooster (Cockerel) in Denver, Colorado

    Hello, First, we'd prefer re-homing the bird in a place that would allow him to live out his natural life, so we'd like to be sure he won't be fought or eaten. My wife and I have always raised our chickens as pets, so it's hard to imagine a chicken we raised would be mistreated. Eating chickens...

    Thanks for the reply. Obviously with such a small flock, we're part of the trend of backyard chicken owners who have chickens as pets. I thought we had a pretty original idea, but apparently not. Both my wife and and I grew up in the city, so we don't have a large frame of reference when it...

    My wife and I live in Littleton proper, not far from downtown Littleton. We've been keeping a small flock in our backyard for just a year. I'm glad I finally looked for a thread for Colorado. There are a lot of questions I could've posted in the past year, especially winter, like what do you...

    Chipped beak w/ a cuticle-looking thing exposed. Avoids eating and drinking. Please help.

    Woke up to see one of our 10-week-old pullets with a chipped beak at the very tip. It was definitely bleeding. The thing is, it isn't totally broken off. It looks like the top layer was chipped off, leaving a sub-beak exposed. My wife said maybe it's like when you cut a dog's claw too short, you...

    I have a week old amber white chick with what looks like an off-center crop.

    Thanks for the advice. When I googled it or searched the site, all I seemed to find was information about sour crops or impacted crops. This is just one of the many things I've had to learn in this whole experience.

    I have a week old amber white chick with what looks like an off-center crop.

    This is my first time raising chicks. We have two red sex links, a black australorp, and an amber white, which I guess is a cross between a Rhode Island White and a Rhode Island Red. The amber white has a few quirks, and I'd like to get some advice whether or not its something to worry about...

    This sounds like a great idea. I'm new to the chicken world, but I've been messing with electronics for a while. Never arduino, though. I've always wanted to make something with arduino, and I'm hoping that automating the chicken coop would be a good combination of hobbies. Keep us updated on...
