Yes, I have 3 others that are definite females. Guess it's time to rehome them

Pretty sure these both are male but wanted to double check. Two 2 week old salmon faverolles.

I probably got it from you. It's been so long that I can't remember where I read it but I'm pretty it was that article

Had my daughter hold the door to show how it opens 😂

The door does go down though. I figured it will be easier for me than having to hold it up while filling the food and water.

This is our first time using this one. I will probably just make an opening on the side. Something big enough for the chicks to fit through but small enough that the hens can't fit. That way if they're getting picked on they can run to safety. The door is for me to access the food, water, and...

My tractor supply only requires 4

We didn't get any chicks last year because, let's face it, sometimes you gotta let the bigger girls start to die off before adding more 😂. Well, we unfortunately lost a few from age mixed with our horrible west Texas heat last summer. Tractor supply got some new babies in today, and I couldn't...

It's called a fart egg. Usually it's just some egg white. No yolk. I've gotten a few.

I've been debating doing one. Technically, boxers have mastiff in them so if one parent was boxer and one mastiff then I see why the mastiff is showing so much but then she's "Technically" full boxer, right 😂😂
