    Breed? Also an added what gender

    The cochins I know, just inquiring on the 3 small dark chickens. Tonight, the one in the first picture on the right made a strange almost crow-like noise. Does anyone know how old they look/may be? Anything good about this breed from your experience?

    Breed? Also an added what gender

    Whatever age these guys are they all look the same unlike other breeds I have that crowed in the past, I could easily tell. These do not have combs just a red pigmentation to the skin. If they didn't all look the same it wouldn't be so hard.

    Breed? Also an added what gender

    Thank you! I see that in them ( took me a aminute to figure out what OEG was) haha. Show quality or not they are loved where they're at now. Mutts are sometimes the best. It must be hard to differentiate the males from females in this breed since one is crowing and they all are exactly the...

    Breed? Also an added what gender

    I picked up theses guys in a swap and have absolutely no clue what breed or what age they are. Any suggestions? One is already crowing ( i know age is hard to tell) I can tell you I have Seabrights that I raise and these new guys are much smaller. I am just inquiring on the 3 dark chickens.

    Questions for experienced Turkey enthusiast

    Love this! thank you! I recently obtained what I believe to be 4 turkey poults (about 3 weeks old at this point). They are with a few, healthy chicks. Neither have touched outside yet. I am trying to figure out what feed to get that will be good for them. Will water supplements be adequate? In...

    Questions for experienced Turkey enthusiast

    I am curious and would like to know some of the reasons why people say turkeys are hard to raise and keep alive as poults. I have heard from just about everyone that they almost always die, for no apparent reason. Why? I have searched and searched and found no real answers, except for obvious...

    Crop impaction

    That's awesome to hear they are both doing well! I am worried there will be a repeat crop impaction on the same chicken. I'll probably get some olive oil to have on hand, I hadn't heard of using that until now. I believe what caused mine was leftovers also, that were supposed to be just a small...

    Crop impaction

    Hope this problem doesn't arise again, but I guess it's just one of those things. One could have the most bomb proof habitat and diet for a chicken and things are still going to happen, from what I've seen.
