    1week old chicks breed please?

    No barring that I can see yet. If that gray one is a jersey giant that would be funny, as it's the smallest chick in the bunch, lol! I'm sure that is a black australorp as that is all I have in my flock up till now, but I was wondering if the other black one could be a marans?

    How old are these guineas?

    Here are new pictures from today. Now I am wondering about their feather color. They have brown striped feathers mixed in with their "pearl" color polka dotted ones. Is this normal for pubescent guineas? They couldn't be chicken/guinea crosses or something could they? Also, many have a lot of...

    How old are these guineas?

    Thanks everyone! So at what age do they begin to develop the hard helmet? Most have at least a few brown feathers mixed with their spotted ones, and some have way more white on them than others. They are so much fun to watch. They move like a school of fish and roost in my pear tree at night(...

    30 hens need a home in NE Ohio

    What is a battery hen? I'm in WV on the Ohio border near Wheeling. Do you still need more homes?

    How old are these guineas?

    Yes, you're right. They are maybe half as big as my black australorps. I've been trying to post a close up but can't get it to load. They are already making quite a racket!

    Limping, swollen footed rooster

    OK, I will take pictures in the morning. I did a search for bumblefoot and honestly, that sounded like it could be the problem, But then I looked again and absolutely no spots on the bottom of his foot, and no hard bump either. Maybe the beginnings of bumblefoot? It just concerns me that he will...

    Limping, swollen footed rooster

    Hoping someone can help. My Black Australorp Rooster is limping badly, as in won't put any weight on it at all. When I checked his leg/foot about a week ago there was no swelling, no peeling, a possible scratch but I wasn't positive - and if it was a scratch there was no dried blood. Today...
