    What breed are these 2 roosters?

    What breed are these 2 roosters? I was capturing a bee swarm this spring and the lady has 2 extra pullets that she gave me. They were born around the first of April, so they are at least 4 months old. They have feathered legs, and I have no idea what they are. Thank you in advance. Mike

    I need help. Unknown Problem, possibly an infection around the vent?

    Unfortunately, she passed away today but I do appreciate your advice. I have only had chickens for around a year, and haven't had to deal with any health issues up to this point. I will definitely know a little more if this ever happens again. Thanks again, Mike

    Thanks 5Leepy!, After I posted this I ran over to the local farm store before they closed and they suggested "Vetericyn Wound and Infection Spray". So I came home, washed her really carefully with a soft mist from the hose an applied the spray gel. I think she knew I was trying to help her...

    I think my chicken ate a Rattlesnake. Are the eggs safe?

    Hi ChicKat, That was the actual picture (blown up) from today. I had my phone on me when I was out there today. I usually let the chickens run free on the weekends when I am home to watch them. I am always amazed by how many things they find to eat in the grass. This one was a surprise...

    I suppose they eat anything they can catch in their yard when I'm at work. So its probably nor the first time it happened, it's just the first time I've seen it. Thanks everybody for the speedy replies. I really appreciate it. Mike

    Hi Everyone, This is my first post. I've only had my flock for 4 months, so I am definitely still learning. I was out picking green beans today, and the chickens were having a blast in there with me. All of a sudden one of them dashed into where I was picking and pulled out what first appeared...
