    How to manage a rude rooster?

    He is very handsome! 🤩 I personally don't think it's worth risking another injury. Sure, he may calm down as he ages, it's not impossible, but there's absolutely no guarantee - he might even become worse, and with young children in the picture I don't think he deserves to stay. You said you...

    What Breed Is My Pullet?

    I'm not good with identifying breeds so please excuse me for not being able to provide any useful information, but I just have to say something about that second picture - it's perfect! They way she's lying down, that tiny body of hers just in the middle of everything... It's adorable! 🥹

    Are bantam breeds better suited for indoor setups?

    This is a heartwarming story and it’s clear Charlie was well loved, but I don't think using this article to justify your desire to have an indoor rooster is doing you any good. It is not something to be taken lightly. We are not talking about a toy nor an accessory, this is a living being...

    How to decide which Roo to keep (and which to dispatch).

    I always have a hard time deciding which rooster to keep because they can absolutely live together without any issues if there are enough resources and hens (and space), but I really don't enjoy having to listen to 3-4 roosters going at it at sunrise, and I don't think the neighbors appreciate...

    Broody Drake?

    I don't own ducks myself, but I asked someone who is more experienced with them because I got really curious after reading your post. :) According to my friend, who has been in love with ducks and anything duck-related since he was 4, Bramble's broody behavior is unusual for a drake but not...

    Ayam cemani and Naked Neck mixing (with some moral questions)

    Wow, thank you everyone for the responses! :D I feel validated (though obviously I wouldn't argue if I was given a different response, after all by asking my questions I was actually hoping for honest insights) and even more motivated now. I can't wait to start this journey, as cheesy as that...

    Ayam cemani and Naked Neck mixing (with some moral questions)

    That's a really good idea, thank you! :D I think maybe I am the one overwhelming myself by wanting to come up with everything even before I know exactly what I'll work with - but then again I love planning and preparing, and I want to make sure I am prepared for my new flock. Using your...

    Ayam cemani and Naked Neck mixing (with some moral questions)

    Thank you, it means a lot to me to hear that there's nothing wrong with what I'd like to achieve! :yesss: I don't want to pretend like most have told me it is wrong, but after hearing it from a few different people I really started to question myself. As long as I get to have happy, healthy...

    Ayam cemani and Naked Neck mixing (with some moral questions)

    Well... Interestingly enough, mutts in cats and dogs are very popular where I live because most people don't want to spend money on purebreds. Specifically about mixed chickens I have only heard negative comments in the past few years, never when I was a child. I don't want to assume or...

    Ayam cemani and Naked Neck mixing (with some moral questions)

    Thank you so much for the response! :) I trust this person because she isn't the reason we didn't get any eggs ( I apologize if I worded it incorrectly in my original post). She said she cannot give us pullets and cockerels because she wants to keep some and the others have been reserved...

    Rhode Island keeps eating and wasting food all day long

    I agree with SnackMeat. While there could be another explanation for it, it still isn't good for her to be alone. Chickens are flock animals and need company and community, so I wouldn't be surprised if this was her way of dealing with loneliness and boredom.

    Review by 'EggzactlyRight' on item 'Naked Neck-turken'

    Absolutely lovely birds! Had them all my life, my entire family loves them. :D Most of them have a great temperament, our hens have been absolutely amazing layers in every single generation so far, and we always had many roosters to choose from who were all great with the hens and mostly good...

    Ayam cemani and Naked Neck mixing (with some moral questions)

    (TL;DR at the end - I'm so sorry, I love rambling) Last week my mom and my grandma had to travel for official business and turns out the lawyer they went to has a rather big Ayam Cemani flock. She keeps them in her yard, fully free-range, with more than enough shelter, and they are absolutely...
