    congested barred rock

    I have a barred rock that i noticed sounds congested. She could possibly be wheezing. She is making little sneezing sounds. It has been hot, humid and rainy here in florida.

    welsummer?

    I bought 3 of these littles and were told that they were welsummers. But someone told me that welsummers have yellow legs.. these girls have whitish pink legs with a lil bit of yellow to them. If they are not welsummers, what could they be?

Im...

    Post your FIRST EGG pics!

    Yes, the smaller one is cracked.. i found them in the same box. So i guess one of my girls laid her egg, then the other one went in after and she must have stepped on the first egg while she was laying hers. We went and got some oyster shells to offer them to harden the shells. Hopefully we wont...

I knew our roo was a roo when he was about 4-6 weeks old.. he was more agressive.. not really towards me or anyone else, but if i was offering snacks.. he pecked at it harder.. marshmallow is growing her...

    My 2 leghorns are about 17-18 weeks.. Fluff's comb os bigger than Marshmallows, but i guess Marshmallow couldn't skip out on all the fun!

    FIRST EGGS for first time chicken owners!

    I already enjoyed my chickens and love them dearly, but there is a special kind of feeling when you see that first egg in the box for the first time.. i not only found 1 egg, but 2.
