    Currently, the brr bantam rooster is in a pen with 3 hens, 2 intermediate crele phoenix bantams, and a standard oriental game. I can easily tell the oriental game eggs easily, and she's just there for company as she was a lone hen. I use to have many bbr, barred, and black phoenix bantams both...

    Newbie.. Chick hatches now what?

    Never said it was impossible to do, just difficult since you're new at it. There are other concerns too like brooding the different age chicks too if you don't have other brooders available, but I wish you luck on your first hatch.

    I think my chickens are "special".

    You have to assist them to go into the coop for a couple of days until they get use to sleeping in there at night, especially when you change where they sleep.

    The problem is, since your sets of eggs are days apart, even if your first set is on lockdown, are you going to decide to stop turning the other sets of eggs? Do you have a separate hatcher or are you going to hatch them all in the same incubator? Each time you open the incubator to turn the...

    My Handsome Rooster

    Unfortunately for me, I always get roosters out of straight run or when I hatch myself.

    Middle ones are first to hatch? Are you doing a stagger hatching?

    Rooster

    Best thing to do is have a behavior or object to deter him from being directly aggressive towards you. My sebright rooster, unfortunately he was dinner, was so aggressive, he would charge at anyone especially me when I raised my leg up. To him it simulated another rooster in an aggressive...

    sebright thread

    Just lost my 7 week old SQ sebright roo to a hawk today. Still have another roo, but that one has a single comb, although other than that, he looks better than the one I lost.

    Moving chicks from hens for their own safety

    I just lost my first chicken to a hawk today. My 7 week old SQ sebright cockerel. Let my flock free range for an hour beforehand. Came outside right after i heard commotion and saw it happened. Now my little bantam flock is too scared to go out in the open. I'm planning to get some plants...
