    Black or Blue Australorp?

    Thanks. Once I got them home I was noticing they were awful light. I didn't realize TSC would have blues. I am excited to have them. I would have been excited to have blacks. I now kinda hope one is a roo and one a pullet so they can breed. But either way I am happy.

    Broody hen missing chicks

    This is my first time having a broody hen. She is a year and a half. She went broody and I tried to break her using the hanging cage techniques and kept taking eggs out of nest boxes. Neither worked so I got some fertilized eggs from a local guy. 20 -21 days later we had 3 chicks with 2 eggs...

    Cuckoo marans?

    Me too but just wondering if about the guy with so many white feathers. It is ok I will keep one and get rid of the other if needed. I still have one that does not have the comb development or red color. Holding out she is a pullet

    Ok my turn. What breed is this bantam?

    Did it look similar to this? From your pictures it does. I am trying to figure out the breed of my 3 week old bantam

    All black chick??

    I got an all black chick from the TDC assorted bantam bin too! He/she looked like that when I got it. It's 3 weeks old and I just posted again. Hopefully we can figure these mystery chicks out
