    My feral chicken -what breed is she?

    This is the only egg of hers I have ever seen and it was rotten. It was more white than brown. She is good at hiding her eggs. I had seen her just once the 2 weeks before she showed up with 8 chicks.

    I will try to get a better photo of her. It's hard to get too close. But this is what her eggs look like.

    My feral chicken -what breed is she?

    This is Winifred, a hen who showed up in my backyard about 6 months ago. Anyone know what breed she is? When the chicks are a bit older I will post pics of them so maybe I can determine which are females and which are males. Thanks!

    Yeah right *lol* I have no skills to build a coop! I will buy one or get a kit that, hopefully, someone can help me build.

    My cats have never bothered the hen but I am afraid if the chicks wander too far my outdoor cat Bob might get them. I'm looking into getting a chicken coop but it looks like a pricey endeavor. I have 2 semi feral cats living in the backyard who were born there.

    I have one hen who just showed up in my backyard about 6 months ago. And now, thanks to a rooster who was passing through the neighborhood about a month ago, she now has 8 chicks! I joined this group because I haven't a clue what to do with chickens.

    I'm in Stockton and have always thought of myself as a Northern Californian. I kind of see the Grapevine as the dividing point, but maybe folks in Bakersfield and Fresno think of themselves as Southern Californians? If you look on a map Stockton is almost smack dap in the middle of the state.

    How early can you tell if you have baby roosters? Because those definitely wouldn't be allowed in my residential neighborhood.

    My feral chicken

    Greetings. I'm new to this site. I had a hen show up in my backyard about 6 months ago. She's been eating my cat's food and foraging in the yard. Well, a rooster showed up in the neighborhood a few weeks ago (he is gone now) and now Winifred (yes I named her!) has 7 little chicks! I'm clueless...
