    Russian Orloff owners, I’d love to know their temperaments!

    We have an Orloff and she is very mild mannered and quiet. Unfortunately she has been picked in and has no feathers in her neck so we just separated her from the bully Welsummer and we’re putting she heals and looks and feels herself again!

    Which hen do I keep?

    Thank you! We only have 2. Our poor Orloff doesn’t even look like an Orloff anymore. We initially took her to the vet about 2-3 months ago thinking maybe it was mites. They are our first hens and we only have the two. We never saw the Welsummer picking on the Orloff until Sunday when we saw...

    My Cuckoo Marans - hen or rooster?

    cuckoo Marans 9 weeks, roo or pullet?

    How can you tell it’s a rooster so adamantly? I’m trying to understand because I too am feeding concerned I may have a rooster. Mine looks the same as the one in this photo but mine is 11 weeks and just this morning I might have heard a “partial” crow. Thank you!
