    All roosters?

    I know atleast 2 of them are.. but being asked to post all of them. no crowing, 11 weeks and 5 days old. Note: the camera is making their combs look much more red than they are, especially on the black chickens. I tried to provide extra photos of those ones with less vibrancy. 1. 2. 3...

    Sick chickens suddenly

    Trying to help a local farmer out who’s new to chickens, we have never had sick chickens so I have no idea how to guide them or what this is. 3 out of 15 of their chickens today have swollen eyes, bubbly breathing and standing/laying still. Not really eating or drinking. One of them has been...

    Lethargic 4 day old chick

    Well, after thousands of chickens this is the only one we have lost. I just think the shipping stress was too much and my parents didn’t get to it as soon as they should’ve. They’re about to be too old for baby chickens lol

    Lethargic 4 day old chick

    Unfortunately passed later that night. I think it would’ve been fine if my parents caught it a day sooner. The rest of them are okay

    The brooder it was in, but it was cold to the touch so it’s on a heating pad at the moment. Not direct contact

    Lethargic 4 day old chick

    We normally buy direct from the store but our parents had some chicks shipped from cackle hatchery. There’s 1 that’s been lethargic since yesterday, they gave the chick electrolyte water, it perked up and then today is lethargic again. Was cold when they came home and so now I have it on a...

    Genders on RIR?

    I’m new to RIRs, I thought all of them were roosters but I didn’t realize that the ladies also have pretty large combs. These just turned 6 weeks old yesterday. There are 5 of them. They’re all roughly the same size, I think. There might be 2 that are bit heavier set than the rest. Sorry...

    Selling Roosters?

    I have sold them for more than roosters that aren’t handled lol… I simply wanted to know other people’s price ranges. For example, depending on breed, a well handled one has sold for $20-30. Not handled stays around $10-15

    Selling Roosters?

    In my experience, the free roosters are not well handled, if at all. So it would make sense they’d be used for food

    Selling Roosters?

    I’ve sold quite a few.. handled and not handled. Just wanted average price ranges.

    Selling Roosters?

    Does anyone charge more for roosters that have been extremely well handled by people? I’ve got a few chicks that I’ll probably have to sell, they’ve been handled a minimum of 2 hours every single day since they were 4 days old. Their temperament may turn downhill as they age but, for discussion...
