    Thank you so much! I've been wanting someone to tell me this and I couldn't find it anywhere! Thus far she has been perfectly fine! ❤️❤️❤️

    Successfully helped my egg bound hen but...

    Had to contend with an egg bound hen night before last (Sunday). Poor gal. It wasn't pretty. Question: She went two days without laying an egg before I noticed the signs of her being egg bound, she's a hybrid, a Red Star. I typically get an egg from her every day. Seriously. Every. Day. Her...

    A mean rooster or a nice one?

    Good to know @Peeps61 as I've rarely handled my rooster. I'll admit to trying to pet my hens as I was quite envious of others who've said their hens sleep on their laps and/or perch on their shoulders (the most I've got was one to temporarily hop on my legs as I reclined back in my camping...

    A mean rooster or a nice one?

    Thanks @PeepersMama, I hope this guy remains the same! He's about 8 months and has not shown any signs of aggression towards myself, my children, or the hens, although he is a little wary of my bull terrier mix which is with good reason as she has snapped at the hens a few times, but all he's...

    A mean rooster or a nice one?

    So I found myself on a post about an aggressive rooster, and it got me thinking about my own rooster, a New Hampshire Red. He's not mean at all, although very randy in the morning with the hens! From what I read, it seemed as if many of the roosters that people were posting about showed few, if...

    What's the breed of this handsome guy??

    Sourland: We always had Leghorns growing up, and they were certainly pretty, but we've recently leaned towards Plymouth Rocks, Red Stars, and New Hampshire Reds for our flock (my own personal as well, as we order ours together). Drumstick Diva: Y'all are both correct, and my Daddy agrees! ✌️

    What's the breed of this handsome guy??

    You're so right! I looked up the images on Google, I'm totally looking forward to proving Daddy wrong!

    What's the breed of this handsome guy??

    This was the complimentary Rare Breed that came with my Daddy's Spring chicks order, he was brown and striped as a chick and now he's this fine specimen of a rooster! He's hilariously small, but not Bantam sized, just hen sized. Daddy's thinking a Silver Laced Hamburg? Thanks!

    Blackening Comb on my New Hampshire Red Rooster

    Oh my, how traumatic! It hasn't been too cold here, maybe lower 40° in the night/early morning, but their perch does sit near a window in their coop, maybe it's time that I cover the window for winter? There'd still plenty of circulation. Thanks again!

    Blackening Comb on my New Hampshire Red Rooster

    I will! Thank you ChickenBFF, and thanks for the welcome, it's my first flock on my own, and I'm thoroughly enjoying it!

    Blackening Comb on my New Hampshire Red Rooster

    First of all, this is my first time posting something other than a picture, so I'll be rightfully embarrassed if I've posted in the wrong spot on BYC. I've grown up having chickens, but just as an aide to my father and I haven't been able to reach him regarding my question. I've noticed my...
