    Is this going to work? - adding new pullets

    These guys are all SPCA rescues. All strays/abandoned in different areas. If need be he will get his own coop and run but he will have a forever home here. I know they can be dangerous if not managed correctly but arrangements can be made for safer handling if that needs to be done. In the mean...

    Need second opinion- pullet or roo

    I thought this one was a rooster but I am second guessing myself. First two pics are the one in question. The last pic is the brother that is younger. They are 9 or 10wks old.

    My chicks stink beyond stink

    Try a different feed. I fed mine Purina medicated and their poo was normal but they stunk. Made the whole garage smell.

    Aggressive or Normal? 5 day old chick

    Just an update. The aggressive chick was a rooster. I worked with him to the point where he would not attack my hands and I could pick him up. He began being overly protective of two pellets and pinning the other chicks getting to close. I separated them from the rest and have since been rehomed.

    What am I? Male/Female Chick

    Thank you that's what I was thinking too. The young roos are starting to argue so trying to figure out who goes to what coop. This one is passive.
