    Hormone Implant in Chickens

    Good morning! I have a 5 year old EE named Big Stink. She was being picked on by the big flock and came to live with me as a house chicken 2 years ago. Stinkers lays a gorgeous blue/green egg approximately every 18 hours, and that just too many eggs, in my opinion. Stink was out of her mind...

    Does coronavirus affect chickens!?!?

    Covid-19 is a zoonotic virus, and it went from animal to human. I have 2 house chickens, and I give them kisses every day. If I got sick, I would absolutely be concerned that I could get them sick as well. .

    Dutch Bantams Breed Thread

    Where did you get them from? I got my mystery rooster from a friend who got hatching eggs from a breeder of Seramas and silkies. My rooster is clearly NOT a Serama. He looks sort of Dutch, but is a mutt.
