    North Oregon Coast 7 Week Old Barred Rock

    My barred rock is a rooster!! I'm devastated! He's so friendly, and I would love to find a good home for him. If interested, let me know. As my name states, I'm in Bay City, just north of Tillamook.

    Bubble Eyes... How long?

    Thank you! We received the Cornish X by mistake, supposedly she was a leghorn. We have no plans to eat her yet, but are just going to let her live out her life here. The chickens are pets for my children, and pest control for me. Eggs are a bonus!

    Bubble Eyes... How long?

    On Sunday morning I noticed bubbles in my Cornish crosses eyes. She is approximately five weeks old, and typical of the breed, a bit overweight. I immediately separated her from the flock, and put her in the chicken hospital. She has a slight bit of congestion, but no runny nose and her eyes...

    Surprise Easter Egger?

    Yippee!!! She's such a pretty girl. I can't wait to see her eggs. Our other EE is gray and tan, and this one is the darkest bird in my whole flock. Thank you all!!!

    Surprise Easter Egger?

    We picked up our chickens five weeks ago, and tossed this one in with the others that we ordered. The feed store guessed that it may be a Partridge Plymouth rock, but as of earlier this week, I can state that this is definitely not that. The first hint was the changing of the leg color, then...

    Giant White Leghorn

    Now that I have been reading about the Cornish X, I'm beginning to think so too. This isn't a bad thing, I really don't mind. It is nice to know what breed they are.

    Giant White Leghorn

    I know that it is through the top grate, but they were laying so perfectly and it was a good shot. The lighter chick is what I was told is a white leghorn, and the darker chick is a barred rock. They are just inder 3 weeks old.

    Giant White Leghorn

    It's legs are wicked thick, and it's feet are wicked huge. It came from Dunlap, I think. We picked it up at our local farmers co-op. Maybe it was mislabeled? They did have Cornish X in the bin next to that one.

    Giant White Leghorn

    That's what we were told. I have one Bantam, a silky. The rest are normal chicks. One of them is a Brahma! I'm beginning to think that she may be a turkey. Lol!!

    Giant White Leghorn

    We have had our chicks for just about two and half weeks now. One of them, our white leghorn, is about double in size from the rest. Is this normal? It is our first flock, so I'm not too sure what to expect, but the size difference is astounding! She's the one in the front of this picture. Here...

    First Time Chickens

    Last month we decided to take the plunge and finally get some chicks, and the sweet, fluffy babies arrived today! We picked up from our farmer's co-op today one of each: Light Brahma, Barred Plymouth Rock, Partridge Plymouth Rock, Araucana, Golden Sex Link, and one white Silkie Bantam. These...
