    Traveling from US to Italy with chickens and back to US again. Any tips??

    Early next year I have the opportunity to bring several bantam chickens from the US (California) to Italy for a TV show. I will be there for less than a week, and then returning back to the US. Has anyone recently traveled to the EU and back again with Chickens? Or has anyone imported chickens...

    Warning for Silkies and medicated feed!

    I know it has been posted before in threads that silkies can be very sensitive to the drug “Amprolium”. This is a drug that is used in medicated chick starter to prevent coccidia. I was unaware that silkies could have a sensitivity to this drug even though we have, over the years, nursed...

    Spoiled House Rooster

    Update to the spoiled house rooster. I've been working with our little rooster, Chickadee for a few months now and I'm very pleased to report that he is greatly improved! After learning about Rooster behavior from all of you I've been able to greatly modify our little roosters bad manners...

    Spoiled House Rooster

    I will definitely take all your advice into consideration. All animals have the potential to injure people, especially kids so I'm not trying to make light of the fact that he is capable. I will change how I interact with him, and arm my husband with the knowledge and a spray bottle! And I'll...

    Spoiled House Rooster

    I was just looking into chicken hierarchy on other threads and a google searches. I see what you mean by his displays and mounting things infront of me. I'm actually working with him now with several shoes on the floor not allowing him to mount them, and I will no longer allow the dance...

    Spoiled House Rooster

    Thank you all for your input. I have no experience with chickens, and have only read about their flock hierarchy. I appreciate the input on his breed (though I'm sure he's mostly mutt) I could only go on looking at photos in google images, and Old English Game definitely fits the bill...

    Spoiled House Rooster

    Through a variety of circumstances we ended up with a little Rooster. He was rescued from a bad situation as a hatchling by a friend. She raised him for a month in her house (with no other chickens). We baby sat him for a month before he was supposed to go to a mutual friend that has chickens...

    Here is a better photo[/IMG] He has a very small comb and tiny waddles, but crows every morning and acts like a rooster in other ways.

    I know it is a roo..but any ideas on breeds? Think blue laced wyndotte and .....

    I have a little rooster that looks somewhat similar. He's maybe 4 or 5 months old. I know he's a mutt, but wondering what breeds he might be mixed with. He's pretty small, but not as small as some bantams. He's my first experience with a chicken (we rescued him as a baby) and so much fun...
