    Frizzle?

    I thought so too but I had her sexed... I guess it could still be wrong though. Here is a better picture.

    Frizzle?

    I just sort of fell into getting this frizzle. I've wanted a frizzle for some time. They told me she was 12 weeks old but she is significantly smaller than my buff orpingtons.

    Winter!?!?

    This is my first time owning chickens. Here in Utah the winters can get pretty cold and ugly. Do the chickens stay in their coop all winter long or will they venture out into the snow? What should I expect when it comes to winter time and my hens?

    Dead chicks :(

    I forgot to say. We have a bpr and buff orpingtons. The chicks were different. One was a black silkie and the other was a red frizzle.

    Dead chicks :(

    We picked up 2 chicks last night to add to our already existing hens. We put them in their own little place with their heating lamp and food and water. Nothing different than what we did when our hens were chicks. We woke up to one dead chick and the other just died. I have no idea what went...

    Plucked feathers

    I'm a first time chicken mom and I have 3 babies. They are 5-6 weeks old. One of my buffs has really rough looking feathers on the back of it's neck and looks almost like they've been plucked out. He has bald spots all over his face where there are no feathers. I can't tell if it's just that his...
