    Second egg??

    She is mostly penned, though I do let them out for awhile when I get home in the evening. I will go on an egg hunt and see if I can find it. First one she laid in the nest box. Thanks!

    Second egg??

    So I got my first egg from Coco, my 18 week old BSL, on July 18th. I haven't seen another one yet. I was just wondering if newly ovulating chickens could be a little wonky with production at first. Does it take them awhile to get into the swing of things?

    Coco is my super sweet girl, but she is good at the stink eye!

    Roo??

    I need some help figuring out what gender this kid is. I know I ended up with one roo out of my 3 I got from the pullet bin at TSC, but I am hoping this red one isn't too. A couple of posters on my last thread said it was a roo, so I figured I would take some better pictures and see what you all...

    Help!!!!!!!!! my chicken has a injury (bad deep cut) on her underside

    Quote: I would take maggots pretty seriously. I have personally helped euthanize quite a few dogs, cats and rabbits that have been eaten alive from maggots. It's a site you don't soon forget.

    Aww I wish I would have caught you before you glued it. Suturing would have been inhumane without anesthesia or sedation. I would not have closed that wound, you really don't have enough to close with and its going to shrink and get really tight. Best thing to do is clean with some sterile water...

    Pearl is an Earl?

    Quote: wow 9/10! thats crazy! Well in my defense I did not pull from the straight run bin...I am new to this, but I at least knew that much. These were supposed to be pullets. 2/3 I must have bad luck I guess. Well I suppose I have 2 roos I have to find homes for. :

    Pearl is an Earl?

    I bought them on March 12 and they were in the pullet bins and said 1 week old. That would make them like 12 weeks, but I just bought 2 pullets from a lady that hatched them that are 14 weeks and they are a ton smaller than my 3 I started with. The shiny feathers on the red one had me...

    Pearl is an Earl?

    So I am pretty sure I ended up with a rooster with my purchase of pullets at TSC. But I am not really sure what breed he is either. Then I start getting scared this one might be a roo too. and I think this girl might be a Black Star, shes the only one I think I have figured out! here...

    Pullets or Roo's???? Our turn for your opinions, please!

    They look like they are going to be cute whatever they end up to be!

    Pullets sleeping in the nest box

    I never realized this could be a problem. My girls move into their new coop today, and now I am contemplating on blocking off the cute nestboxes
