    Official BYC Poll: What Do You Do With Your Aggressive Roosters?

    I try and get my kids to smother them with love and affection as chicks so they’re used to the kids. I haven’t had one attack me yet but I’ve fronted my rooster up once and chased him, he ran away never did it again. You could also use a water pistol and squirt water at them OR I have used a fly...

    Silkies sneezing and sound chesty

    It’s been a few days and they’re still sneezing but no discharge? Should I contact my vet? Or persist with medication?

    Silkies sneezing and sound chesty

    Hi everyone, I am worried about 2 silkie pullets that I recently purchased. they some times sneeze and have gurgly noises. Otherwise they’re eating and foraging and pooping as per normal. They’re a couple of months old and in with 6 other Wyandotte’s the same age. They are getting along well...

    Silver laced Wyandotte

    I’d say pullet for this one. Less comb development

    Golden laced Wyandotte

    Every one says pullet. I say cockerel. Looking at the comb and waddles... I could be wrong though. Time will tell
