I have the same problem. I have 6 10month old hens (2 Rhode island reds,3 golden buffs and 1 black)and a 3 year old rooster. They all stick closely together during the day but when everyone goes in the coop in the back yard in the evenings,one of my rhode island reds comes around to the front...
Thank you . I was kind of leaning toward the season change but wasn't sure .
Like I said,he was a stray and I never found where he came from and had never given much thought to having chickens.
We had chickens when I was growing up but they were all just the standard white cornish and I thought...
This beauty strayed up at my house 2 years ago and was really wild. I bought chicks (supposedly hens) back in June.
He has gotten alot tamer and has been coming closer to me since then and just in the last 2-3 weeks I have noticed his hackles turning darker and they look thinner.
I am still...
