I got three chicks from a breeder in Norco called Chickens Galore. I already gave one away one that was a golden laced Brahma roo. The breeder does not claim to sex any of his chicks so it's my own fault for buying from him. I have a feeling this chicken is a mix of golden lace and Australorp...

From photos I've looked at of a black sex link, they don't have a large comb or wattles. That's why I'm confused, I think. What is your opinion?

I think I have a rooster but would like a few educated opinions before I find him a new home. Can someone please help? He or she is three months old. Thank you! :bow

Thank you for your reply, Millerchild1. It is very helpful! I just went outside for more green grass for Gracie. I got rid of the watered down feed and put in dry. I'll see if she'll eat it that way.

Hello...I'm a new gosling owner. I'm amazed at how he/she grows bigger every day! I'm looking for information in raising her and I'd love to have other goose owners to share with. My little one is about 11 days old and is a Greylag breed. I've been giving constant access to food and water. I...

I am a new chicken owner and recently got nine chicks. They are about two weeks old and I've been researching options of feed. I have decided to feed them a non-GMO, non-soy chick starter. The feed comes in a 50 pound bag, made by Modesto Milling and the cost is $35. It is sold from the...

Hello! I came on this website to learn about breeds because I'm interested in buying and raising chickens as pets. (And to enjoy their eggs!) Ive wanted chickens all my life and now I'm finally getting them! There are so many breeds, my head is spinning. I want big fat hens who might enjoy...
