Besides #4 is anyone else looking particularly like a roo?
1&2 are supposedly Sapphire Gems
3&4 are supposedly Barred Rock
5 and the one in the background are Lavender Orpington
Hello!
I got my chicks this year from TSC. They’re about a week old right now. Will be posting pics/more info as they grow, but would love initial input.
Sold as:
#1/#2 - Barred Rock Pullets
#3/#4 - Sapphire Gem Pullets
#5/#6 - Lavender Orpington Pullets
#7 - EE Pullet
Noticed these bumps on my girls this AM. All three have them on their combs and primarily their wattles. Any idea of what it is and should I be concerned?
Thanks
Hey!
My RIR has been laying this slightly deformed type of egg for about a week. The shell has an opening, but the contents of the egg remain intact. She’s not pecking at it. Any idea of what could be causing this?
Thanks!
They free range for the most part. No secret nest that we’ve found. Didn’t know about the butt check, can try tomorrow. We only have 3 chicks. The two that we know lay, lay in the nesting boxes in the coop.
Attached are both my BRs. They’re roosting right now so I can’t tell which one is the one laying. The only way I can tell is because she’s the only BR that squats.
Both:

I have 3 chickens - all 6mon old.
My RIR and other Barred Rock have laid daily since 4mon. This Barred Rock hasn’t laid an egg yet. Any ideas why?
Thanks!
