    EE roo + BR, BO, RSex, Delaware, RI...what to expect?

    Thanks so much for the info, guys. Appreciate it much. Here is a photo of my roo. I don't know if his coloring can give any insight into the color gene he has or doesn't has? His coloring was different than his other three brothers (whom we found a home for...they were super aggressive, too...

    EE roo + BR, BO, RSex, Delaware, RI...what to expect?

    Hey, guys! I've got 15 eggs under a Buff from my various girls and am trying to figure out what will result in way of mix & color on eggs. Do I have any chance of colored eggs since the roo is EE? (I acquired 4 EEs summer before last, wanting colored eggs, and they all four were roos!)

    What are your rooster's names?

    I had a black Australorp roo who I named, very uncreatively, "Austra." But it fit him. He was elegant and dignified. He has since passed, but he taught me that rooster names should be given in aspirations of what you hope they are like. (I find this to be true with most animals.) For instance...

    Pictures of Personalized Egg Cartons

    I got it online. It's been several years, but I believe I got it on egg cartons.com Came up with what I wanted it to say, chose font, etc. I got my Dad one for his own use, called Foster's Flock (then a smaller "farm fresh eggs" underneath it in smaller type). Just to give you an idea of how to...

    Thanks, Old Chick ;) FlewdaCoop, I got the feather stamp and bible verse stamps at Hobby Lobby. I had the front stamp custom made, with my flock "name." When you're picking out your egg cartons, make sure they have areas wide enough for the stamp impressions.

    Suspicious fighting roosters set-up next door; new neighbors

    Evelle, I do know the set up of the house (dear friend lived there previously) and they do have a basement.

    Suspicious fighting roosters set-up next door; new neighbors

    They're moving their set-up off our property right now. I mean, they were WAY over; all the way. The noise is my primary concern now. We live on a street of mini farms, but still close neighbors. The sound is kicking in. 26 roosters are quite loud unless you live on a lot of acreage. And, yes...

    Suspicious fighting roosters set-up next door; new neighbors

    Uh, no, the hens are definitely not in a separate facility. We walked the property and around the roosters up close and personal...mainly because they set it up on OUR property; OUR land. We had to tell them to quit building, putting up fence. They have about 3-4 acres; we have 13 acres. Like...

    Suspicious fighting roosters set-up next door; new neighbors

    Thought I'd ask those in the "know": Does this description sound like a fighting rooster set-up to you? About 26 separate little houses with all rooster occupants. Cagey answers from owners, who didn't know that I also raise chickens and know a thing or two (like if you plan to eat them, hens...

    Sorry, I neglected to include the fact that a month or two ago I treated with Ivermectin, and again with permethrin after a certain amt. of days. Treated the coop, hen boxes, etc. also. So that was checked off my list, too.

    Rats in Coop!!!!!!!!!!

    The electronic things do work. That's what they put in airplane hangers for small aircraft to keep the rats from chewing on lines in their engines, etc.

    lice or mites

    Sounds like mites to me. They do bite humans also. Chicken lice are yellowy/white from what I've read. Read up on how to treat your coop/chickens is my advice. So sorry!
