    Project Pictures

    I am attempting to improve my breeders for our Lavender Ameraucanas. I find that they are attempting to have this color accepted into the American Standards as "Self Blue". I kept 2 roosters that I thought meet the Standards for Ameraucanas, but I'm new at this so I would appreciate your...

    Easter Egger or Ameraucana?

    The first girl has a bumble foot with a bandage on her foot, but still you can see every other detail. I have been told these are Ameraucanas, but then every now and then someone says they are Easter Eggers. Any comments welcome. At this point, I'm totally confused.

    Barred Rock or Not

    I purchased Plymouth Barred Rock chicks 8 month ago and this one hen, though greatly resembles them, does not look like the rest. She has a lot of green in her stripes. Her tail is more straight up toward the sky, and her comb looks different. Can you tell me what she is? Or is she a Barred...

    Can Chicks Still Hatch at 94 degrees?

    I'm curious to know how the hatching went. When I first began this post, I had waited a complete 21 days before checking my thermostat, and I only had 2 hatches. It was very upsetting. Maybe where you caught it before the whole 3 weeks had passed you have better luck than I did. I have learned...

    Can someone give recommendation for cabinet incubators?

    Crowing hen or is she really a he?

    Hey, just letting you know, I have the same breed. I ordered them online and got them in the mail. My flock looks exactly like yours, and my rooster came solid white as a baby and later developed dark brown spots, but all these guys are called ISA Browns, they are excellent egg layers. You are...

    Chicken Hawk

    I have a 2.8 acres chicken farm that is situated on the edge of 30 acres of dense woods that is sparsely inhabited by homes. The woods are packed with all kind of critters that hawks could eat, but they prefer easy prey, my chickens. It is obvious to anyone in this area who has chickens that the...

    Chicken Hawk

    I know you are so right, the law protects ALL chicken hawks, but not chickens. When are they going to pass a law to protect farmers' livelihood? I have seen up to 7 chicken hawks fly over my chicken farm at the same time. The population of chicken hawks have exploded in this area. When can we...
