    Everyone's favorite game, hen or roo, with my perplexing Speckled Sussex

    Logistics - is a fully enclosed run necessary?

    We have had owls in the morning.. one picked the lock of my silkie/ baby enclosure and we found him in there mid morning scared of the tiniest bantam rooster I ever had.

    Rooster laying eggs

    Look at how thin the legs are as another sign. A dainty, lovely lady. But yes polish really can have spurs. I have a mottled houdan female with massive spurs.

    My house is 1 acre. Can my neighbr hear my rooster?

    Trespassing neighbor with dog chasing chickens

    Blue andalusians 6 months

    Are these hatched march 23 this year. Male or female? I was sold them as roosters but I am not hearing them crow and they just don’t act like roosters. I’ll get better photos soon
