Hello!
We have an almost 2 year old Toulouse gander we need to rehome because it is getting picked on by another gander in our flock. We only have 1 goose, so it’s nothing but constant competition, and the other 2 are already paired off. Would love to see him go to a home where he can pair off...
Good eye - unfortunately, you're right, there is. We took it to the vet a month ago and the vet said it was a sprain or something and should eventually heal, but takes time.
Hi all,
Can someone tell me if this is a roo or a hen? It's been crowing (I know hens can crow, too), but it's also been mounting/going after the other hens. Our other hens have started laying so I honestly can't tell if this is one of the ones laying or not. It's about 17 weeks old now. We...
Hi all,
We got this chicken by accident at Blaines (clearly part of someone's special online order) and figured it's an Appenzeller Spitzhauben. I'm not familiar with this breed and would like to know if it's a roo or a pullet. It's been crowing (I know hens can crow, too), and not sure how...
Thanks so much everyone!! Can anyone give me reasons or the “signs” that point to her being a pullet? I’m trying to learn more about what traits to look for in chickens going forward because I’m having such a hard time distinguishing and understanding the telltale signs and differences in young...
Hey y'all!
Back in June I posted asking if our 5 week old GLW was a pullet or or a cockerel (the general consensus was cockerel). Well he/she is 12 weeks now and I was hoping to get some more input as to what the gender is and why? We are new to chickens so if anyone could explain why they...
Is it that it's because the long side feathers curve over the other feathers or that they're longer than the other tail feathers? I can't believe how hard it is for me to spot the difference! Any further information on the difference in feathers would be awesome - - I'm trying to educate myself...
Thanks so much everyone! We are new to chickens and even after doing research, I'm still finding it difficult to be able to tell the difference. I've read a lot about feather sexing, but I still don't completely understand it 🤔😅 We really appreciate all this feedback!
We have a 5 week old Golden Laced Wyandotte - - she's gotten slightly bigger in just the past week - - which includes a pinkish/reddish comb and wattles coming in. The others don't have wattles or such such a coloration in their comb. (we have EE's, Prairie Bluebell Eggers, Golden Comets, Barred...
