Recently bought a supposedly 2 month old black bantam Cochin. No sign of crowing. It’s scared of my Silkie but it’s showing aggression towards two of my chickens that the silkie is scared of. With bantams there’s never a guarantee with the sex till they are older. I just kind of wanted a second...
I would take out speckled sussex out the speckled part would be more prominent. There may be a chance that it is a welsummer, but my guess is a BCM. Beautiful rooster!
I used to have this problem with some of my chickens and I think it can be several factors. One of them might be an external bug like mites. For that I like to use diatomaceous earth it's overall really good in defeating those kinds of things. Another thing it could be is molting. Molting can go...
I for sure think that it is an Easter Egger if you look at the picture of her she has that signature beard. Absolutely adorable! Easter Egger's can lay green, blue, salmon, white, and brown eggs. Over time it seems as though my EE's have lightened their egg color a little bit but it's totally...

Hey guys! So I bought this hen about 1 month ago. She's 6 months old according to the guy I purchased her from. They told me that she was a Iowa Blue chicken. I looked online and she looks nothing like one. Iowa blues are supposed to lay brown eggs but hers are cream white. She a pretty chicken...
Hey guys I really need your help on this one I have a 34 week old australorp hen and she has no comb! Its just this really small one that has a black tip on it and it hasn't grown one bit. I know that australorps are supposed to have those big red combs. Is this something that I don't have to...
Hey guys! I have 2 hens that are having runny smelly discharge that is coming out of their noses. I'm guessing it's coryza. I was wondering if any of you guys know a treatment I can use for coryza that is safe for eggs. Thanks
