    Blue Sex-Links?

    Any thoughts on whether this is a blue sex link? She has a beautiful blue sheen in the light. I'm pretty sure that's what I was told she is - no idea what else she could be! Very small compared to my other chickens considering she's about 6 months old (and I believe she just laid an egg - a...

    Found a chicken - how to introduce?

    Thank you all so much. You have made some great points and I didn't even think about illness. She seems like such a sweet girl but my girls came vaccinated and I would hate for something to spread. I was also worried because she is a single new chick and couldn't find any threads similar to...

    Not sure what's wrong w/chick's leg?

    I have a 6 week old Araucana that the dog went after - my husband accidentally let him out of the house when I had the chickens in the backyard and he got poor Stella in his mouth for maybe a second or two. I instantly brought her inside because she looked terrified. After a bit she jumped out...
