    PECKING ORDER!

    I'm going to say you are probably correct. No outward signs of being sick but some different behaviors for her. She was the oldest hen in our flock and up until a week or two ago was in the center of the roosting space. Then she shifted slightly off center and last week she was not on the roost...

    PECKING ORDER!

    I at a loss about what happened to my head hen. The last week my head hen seemed to be ostracized from the roost, she would sleep in front of a nest box which seemed odd and I didn't think to much about it. I came home for lunch today and found her dead in our free range front yard. I went...

    ROO OR NOT

    We have decided that "he" is in fact a roo ...all the pictures we googled match him very well..we never purchase straight run and have no experience with roosters. Just seemed odd he would squat. Thank you so much for your help with this.

    ROO OR NOT

    I'm going to ask most likely for the millionth time so I will apologize now. We have 2 Cream legbars what I REALLY thought were 2 pullets...here's the question: will a ROO "squat" like a laying hen does ? He/they are 8 to 9 months old and he has crowed once(weakly) that I can attest to. "He"...

    Who am I ?

    If I can get the picture to load I have a picture of what we were told at time of purchase is a Barneveld pullet. She basically has no comb and a small wattle directly under her bottom beak, no wattles below her ears. They are roughly 20 weeks old. I press the "attach files" button and nothing...

    Barnevelder

    Does anyone have pictures of their pullett Barnevelders. I was told that the 2 we purchased were 5 week old Barnevelder...I'm not sure that is what they are. I can't seem to attach a picture..

    Cockrell

    Good afternoon all, at what age ish will a Cockrell be able to fertilize eggs ? We purchased 2 cream legbar(both were supposed to be pullets) and 2 barnevelder. One legbar sprouted a comb pretty early on. Every one is in the same coop and he has just started to crow..

    Integrating littles

    Question for the GREAT MINDS here in BYC. We are ready to integrate our 13-14 week old pullets. Its been a couple of years since we have done that. Best we remember is that we lock 🔐 All the hens and pullets in for 2-3-4 days and let all back out...we have the pullets very visible to the rest...
