    What is up with my hens?

    The Wyandotte (Ash) was with one other bird (leghorn), Ash was the alpha. The gray bird (Lavender Orpington), is up in the totem poll she’s never been bullied and loves food! They both eat well, are not sluggish, but kinda have me concerned with the black on their face. They all drink from a...

    What is up with my hens?

    My chicken pick on each other often and such but I noticed these two hens had these black faces and I did not notice it earlier in the week. The blackened face appeared quickly. There was a freeze so, I can’t pinpoint exactly what this can be- frost bite, fighting, dirty, blackhead. Two of my...

    I thought … but I don’t think so

    Thank you for your reply. I am sure TS gets their chicks from different places and they don’t always get it right. I bought the black ones because my duck Lidy (drake rouen) loves the white Pekin ducks and now has reached an age that he believe all white birds are fair game- like my Leghorn hen...

    I thought … but I don’t think so

    I had purchased 5 chickens that were suppose to be hens but ended up being 2- Roos and 3 hens at TS. Anyways, I didn’t get the name of the birds because I just wanted pullets so I could have more eggs. Anyways, I got them from the same bin and when I research and asked on this site what they...

    Mixed breed? australorp chicken or ?

    Hey… I bought some chicks at TS and they were all “suppose” to be pullets. I believe they may have mixed two breeds together. The first two I believe may be cockerels. Though I am unsure because of the characteristics on the one. The other three I believe are pullets but not the same breed as...

    Why is there a brown spot on my boiled eggs

    Thank you. It’s good to know. I’m new at this. I’m still learning…so at times I get nervous about what I see.

    Why is there a brown spot on my boiled eggs

    I ate them. They were good. Just different from what I am use to. I’ve never eaten duck eggs until this fall. Still learning egg differences. I always ate white store bought eggs and avoided fresh farm eggs until now.
