    When to start free ranging chickens and ducks

    I put my chicks out at about q month old with the rest of my older flock an they know when to go in once it starts to get darkk since they can't see. They want to go to a safe place. Not sure if that's the same with ducks.

    roosters nails bitten off

    No it's not. I'm in Maine an it's been very springy for the past couple months. And I had him inside this winter because he had gotten bad frost bitee. and it's not from scratching because I had a hen lose nails but they weren't completely gone. I'll post pics laterr.

    Pale combs, mites, fowl pox???

    Well that's good if the mites are clearing up. What are you using to treat them? Have you cleaned the comb all out ? I find home remedies work well.

I'm in Maine an we had a big could snap for almost a month an my flock that didn't have a pea comb had their combs change from pailish color because they stopped laying an it got cold.

    Jumbo eggs?

    Looks fairly big. These are my hens. The darker skinner long eggs are from my oldest hen thats 2yrs old now. Austrolp laid nice xlg eggs now lays these. She did stop this winter.The jumbo ones usually have some huge yolks but never double unless its really big. She's laid eggs the size of my palm.

    2 wk wyandottes

    Here are photos today I took of mine. Im pretty certain that the slower feather growers are male. Color of comb have changed and personality. The other one i named Lola who looks just like mom and had two rows of wing feathers at hatch is completely different and much easier to handle.

    So far she looks to have rounded feathers. This is my second hatch and my first one I was pretty good at sexing them. The one I kept was the first one to hatch and had two sets of feathers on the wings an was a fast feather grower. These were wyandotte x austrolp an the other one was very slow...
