not sure on the breed of 1st hen, but I know the rest. The blue one is a blue English Orpington, black and white is a Silver Laced Wyandotte, and the last one is a Swedish Flower. All are beautiful!
I have some pullets, 12 weeks old. And I noticed that they started pulling off the tail feathers from each others. Today I noticed they pecked it so bad that one of my OE girl was in blood. I washed and disinfected it. She is solated. I included a picture of her. How do I stop that? Why do they...
Thank you so much for your help! I'll have to look for a new home for him I guess. Since I am not allowed to keep roosters where I live. If he won't be able to fertilize eggs, people might not want that kind of a rooster lol
I think I have to try that, putting him in a dark cage. Everyone is scared to go and eat, he beats them up immediately. Today I was holding him in my hands for a while, and girls started eating but when I let him go, they started running away from a feeder🙄
Thank you! Usually roosters are protecting their hens. Why does he beat them up? He just recently started doing that...do you know what could cause that?
Anyone familiar with Fibro Easter Egger breed? I have one 15 weeks old that I just started to wonder if it is a rooster. I ordered all females though. But I've never had Fibros before so not sure on its gender. It is very mean to others, beating everyone up....all hens are very terrified of...
