    Sex linked chicks

    This is great information! Thanks so much, he looks quite white/silver in that picture but in other light is more lavender (was sold to me as Isobel colour). This should be an interesting cross 😊

    Sex linked chicks

    Hello! I want to breed my lavender Araucana rooster with my cuckoo maran x Wyandotte hen to get sex linked chicks. I’m new to this and I haven’t hatched from these two yet. I’m wondering if the light colour of my rooster will make the head markings difficult to spot on the males as he’s a very...

    Can lice stunt growth in pullet?

    Thank you! Yes she’s definitely at the bottom and the last to get any food so I’ll try and separate her and get some extra protein into her. They’ve all been wormed as well 👌🏼 thanks!

    Can lice stunt growth in pullet?

    Not sure if this is a weird question! We’ve had really bad weather here and some of my pullets had a pretty bad case of lice.

    Egg shell and yolk colour

    One of my girls egg colour has changed from a light brown/tan to white, her eggs also have a pale yolk compared with the others. She is acting normal and no changes to her comb colour - it’s bright red. She was the only one of the flock to not go broody so she may have been harassed a bit more...

    16 week old Olive Eggers - Hens or Roos?

    This is my feeling too, none of them are fighting and my other rooster is leaving them alone so I’m feeling pullets. Thanks!
