    What to feed my new 3 yr old Tom ?

    Hi everyone! I got a beautiful 3 yr old bourbon Tom ( choc colour) to keep as pet. He will be kept with my chickens when he is out of quarantine and so I’m wondering if he needs the high protein food that most people feed them if he isn’t going to be ate? I imagine his growing days are long...

    TRIOS?

    Hello, do you think a trio of d’uccles would be okay to keep together or would the hens get too battered? Thank you😊

    ARE buff or red silkies agressive?

    Thanks! That makes more sense to me! One place I remember it stating that was on Rochester Hatcheries.

    ARE buff or red silkies agressive?
