    Free Easter Egger roo in Durham NC

    Francisco is a gorgeous Easter Egger roo that is around a year old. He is not aggressive at all and is a good protector. We just have too many roosters. If you have green/blue egg layers, you can be assured that their eggs will hatch green/blue egg layers if he is the father. PM if interested...

    Can you help with gender on this Easter Egger?

    Yes, the gray one is Stormy and we have heard him crow. The black and copper one is Splash, no crow yet. The black one is Midnight. I’m pretty sure she’s a pullet.

    Can you help with gender on this Easter Egger?

    Hi guys! We hatched four Easter Eggers in April and out of the four, only one is obviously a hen. Another does not have the long, swoopy tail of a rooster, but with the colors, I am pretty sure it is. I give you Mosaic. Please tell me whether it’s a rooster or a hen. Thanks in advance :).

    Marek's Help

    We had confirmed Mareks in our flock, and lost 4-5 over about 6 months. This was out of around 40 chickens. I thought it would be so much worse. Most of ours were not vaccinated. A lot of times they get exposed and just don’t get sick. After that, they are immune. We didn’t do anything special...

    Bumblefoot help

    Smiles Prid Drawing salve is what we used. We soaked the foot in epsom salt, put the Smiles Prid on it and wrapped it up. After two days, it pulled right out. You can get Smiles Prid on amazon.

    Rooster has something wrong with his feet

    So, today we soaked Morehead's foot again and were planning to do it again tomorrow and try to remove the plug. After soaking the foot, I could see the plug was sticking out. I just grabbed it and pulled and it came right out. Here's a pic. Did I get everything I was supposed to? We out on...

    Rooster has something wrong with his feet

    I didn’t know how accommodating he’d be. I’ve not held him since he was a few weeks old and his spurs are HUGE, lol. I’ll keep everyone updated.

    Rooster has something wrong with his feet

    Update with new pics. We soaked Morehead’s feet in epsom salt today, put on Smiles Prid salve and wrapped him up. Well do this for three days and hopefully the sore will come out. He was such a sweetie while we we were working on him. His other foot does not seem to have a sore, but if you see...

    Rooster has something wrong with his feet

    We are going out of town for the day tomorrow, but will start treatment Wednesday. After I soak his feet in Epsom salt, I should be able to get a cleaner pic.

    Rooster has something wrong with his feet

    I’m seeing videos using Smiles Prid drawing salve to raise the sore and make it easier to remove. We’ll try that first. Any idea why the other foot is also swollen?

    Here are the pics of the bottom of his feet and a few to show his comb is normal color.

    Rooster has something wrong with his feet

    He’s definitely acting weird, not sure about lethargic. His comb and wattle are still really red.
