    Balding and breaking feathers

    They have a run that is about 10ft by 18ft and we often open that up so they can free range in the backyard. I feed them fermented feed. During the summer we use Tractor supplies producers pride layer pellets mixed with nature wise scratch texture feed, which I also mix in dried herbs...

    Roo?

    Hey there, just recently picked up some pullets from a local hatchery near me. They said they were both pullets, white leghorns about 9 weeks. Is one a Roo? The tail feathers have me questioning it.

    Missing Talon?

    Hi there, we just recently picked up new chickens from a local hatchery and I didn’t notice it till we got home but my pullet is missing her 3rd talon on both sides….. I think? Has anyone seen this? Is it something to be worried about? It is on both feet on the outside toe.
