Need help identifying some of my chicks from my bantam assortment order from Ideal Poultry. Black modern game? White leghorn bantam? Or red Pyle game? Splash modern game? Or OEGB? ? Blue/lavender & tan coloring - pea comb I think ? Single comb, clean legs, porcelain

We have had chickens for about two years and are jumping into the goat world! We moved to an acre of property and already have their space set up. Looking at two different options of Nigerian Dwarfs. We want them for backyard pet & milking purposes. I have been doing my research, but often...

Never had brahmas before, but picked up four blue partridge from a breeder yesterday! Can't wait to watch them grow

He was free ranging at his previous place, so I'm assuming a good deal of sun. Here e are pictures of him with his new girls.

How does this guy look? Too much leakage?

Please tell me pullet... This is my $38 chick that hatched from 15 shipped eggs. The darkening feathers on the wing have me worried. Her comb is pretty pale. About 3 months old.

Anyone use a black ameraucana rooster over splash marans hens to produce blue olive eggers?

Yes, the heat is awful. What would be the price for him and shipping?

That pen is a grow out pen.. Have about 10 in there... So I treated them individually. But there was no way I could catch all the ones in my main flock. I put a dose in their water. I know they are going to drink t because it is horribly hot here and they are going through water like crazy.

I researched. They are in a chicken tractor, so on the ground daily. She would stretch her neck out to gasp for air and then put her head down eyes closed, looked like she was dying. She would hiccup, like a loud screech every now and then. And before she died she was thrashing her entire...

What is the dosage to put it in their water? I have 30+ chickens.

I just had a young pullet die from gapeworm. It was an awful experience. She was gone before I could even figure out what was wrong. My question, do I need to worm my entire flock now? What do I use... I read that typical roundworm dewormer won't work, that I should use Safeguard.

Really? Small world! Lol Yes, my husband loves Pierre Part area as well... We were actually looking at buying a house there or Chackbay/Kraemer area, but ended up deciding to build in Thibodaux! So our chickens will be moving to a new place in the next couple of months but will be living like...

I'm beginning to think I have a cockerel out of the three.. The lady these came from even commented that she thinks this particular one looks to be. I put "him" next to one of the others Im pretty sure is a pullet. The thing that I noticed is the neck feathers being longer and less round than...

Yes, he got his birds from Paul Smith.
