    No hen submission here!!

    No hen submission here!!

    I’m just curious about my hens and roosters behaviors. I have 12 hens and one rooster, all about 16 months old. The rooster has gotten very very very aggressive with the hens (and my husband and myself but that’s beside the point)… He chases them, grabs the back of the head, and there’s a lot of...

    Easter egger genes & breeding olive Eggers

    I have a beautiful EE rooster. I’m deciding which eggs to try to incubate. I have an EE hen, Olive Egger hens, SLW, and Blue Andalusian, copper Maran and Golden Comets. I would love colored eggs AND beautiful chickens… Any insight from those that have tried would be much appreciated!

    Help with Breed ID?

    Here are the others that came with her (she’s in the middle) and I was told they were blue cuckoo marans. But honestly when I look up different breeds they all look the same to me!! Clearly I’m no chicken expert!!

    Chicken gang… bullies and the feeder

    Hi all!! I have an existing flock of 11. I have just introduced 4 new girls who came together from their previous farm. They are slightly younger than my girls by about 2 weeks. Mine are about 10 weeks old. My girls have been nothing but sweet to the new girls. But the new girls are like a gang...

    Moving chicks to coop - no light

    Hi all! I’m totally new to the chicken world… I have baby chicks that are about 5 weeks old. I moved them into their new coop 2 days ago. I have been reading that they shouldn’t leave the coop for at least 4 days, I have also read a week. Is this accurate? Also, I just noticed today how dark it...
