    wonky leg on 5month old Rock.

    Yesterday we noticed one of our Barred Rocks looks like her leg was broken. It sort of goes off to the side and she walks like a pirate. She can use it. She raises it to scratch her neck. I ckecked it for injuries and don't see anything. The only other thing out of the norm is yesterday we got...

    I think I have a Roo. Am i right?

    Ok, She wasnt very cooperative this morning. But here are a couple more . So if she IS a pullet (which would make me very happy) can they really mature that differently. IN my original post, there is such a huge difference between mine and my moms. Im so new to this all. And i KNEW they...

    I think I have a Roo. Am i right?

    I will get good side pics in the morning. Thank you guys.there is just a drastic difference between Snow and her two sisters.

    Introducing my first flock

    Thank you. I only put them inside at night right now because they are in the kennels and have no protection really from the fox or dogs. Their coop in almost done and they will be in it starting this weekend 24 hours. Im very attached to my Rocks particularly but they are also my biggest so they...

    Introducing my first flock

    Maybe i can rig up something like that. What we are building right not is a tractor coop so we can move it around, but it is tall enough to set the smaller dog kennel into and do the same thing. Thanks so much!!! the 3rd pair are bantams so are quite a bit smaller so that would work great! Again...

    What kind of chickens are these?

    I can get better shots when i get home. this is another one though both of their combs are about the same...besides feather coloring, they look the same.

    Yes! or at least a cross!! Thank you! They are quite pretty gals. Have never been handled so hoping to get them calmed down a bit. Curious about egg production as well. I dont mind small eggs at all :) Thank you so much!
