    Hen Heavy Breathing

    I have a 1 year old cochin bantam hen who has been laying quite fine. Not sure if she has laid in the last couple of days, however. She is acting normal - eyes bright and clear and comb a nice healthy red. She is eating okay, drinking okay. The only weird thing that she is breathing heavy...

    Bubbly Eye

    Thanks for the responses! I soo appreciate it! Sarey (my easter egger) does too. Yes, the bubbles were clear. No mucus. The eye is clear. (and so is her nose, beak and breathing for that matter) I must admit, I panicked a bit... knowing that bubbles in eyes is also seen in Coryza (sp?)...

    Well I got confirmation from a breeder that the Black Mottled d'uccle is a Hen. Does anyone want a Self-Blue d'uccle rooster? If you are in the L.A. area.... please take it before it crows and I get into trouble! So, no guesses on the Partridge Rocks?

    Gender Identification Please

    Sorry, forgot to put when they were hatched: May 27th, so that would make them about 5 weeks old or so. The bottom 2 look like hens to me, also. The top one I am not so sure about. No crowing attempts yet. I don't have a roo (can't keep one) so they are not my own stock, but some eggs...

    Gender Identification Please

    Here's 3 Golden Laced Cochin Bantams that I'd like to identify since I'll be selling them. I believe this one is a roo Another pic of him. Hope you can see the comb and wattles well enough. And I think these are hens. (Hopefully!)
