    What is growth on chicken's face?

    She was being held down so we could get the picture. She is very active, eating and drinking. The spot started very small and has continued to grow over a few months. The peck mark is new. We brought her in to clean it off. She is now separated.

    What is growth on chicken's face?

    This is a 1 year old brown leghorn hen. She is eating and drinking well. Very active and vocal. Started as a small bump and has turned to this. Any ideas what it is and what I should do for it. I have her separated to keep others from picking on her. Thanks in advance for your help.

    What gender is this Old English Game Bantam?

    We have 4 OEGBs and are thinking we got all roos. This is the only one that we are not 100% on. The other three are crowing. This is the smallest of the group. It is 12 weeks old. Any thoughts would be appreciated. If a roo, we will need to find some new homes for a couple. Thanks

    What Gender are these Bantams?

    We have two OEGBs that we think are roos and one bantam Wynadotte (we think) that we believe to be a roo. They are all 11 weeks old. Any thoughts on the gender? Also, does the last one look like a Wyandotte (or mix) to you? Thanks

    Question on Polish Chickens

    We have three polish chicks. These are 5 weeks old. When can you determine what gender they are and what are things to look for? We know with the silkie in the front that we will need to wait until it crows or lays an egg to tell. Thanks for your help.

    chick with bad smell

    We have a bantam that has a bad smell coming from the rump area. Vent looks fine, no swelling. This chick is 7 weeks old and has had the smell for a while. It is not a poop smell. It is in with 5 other chicks and it is the only one with it. It eats and drinks well. Has feathered in nicely...

    What Gender and are these OEGBs?

    We have these four bantams. Pretty sure they are Old English Game Bantams. We also think they are 1 rooster and 3 pullets. They are about 7 weeks olds? Any opinions on Gender and type? Oh yea, they all attempt to crow, if you can call it that, lol. The little roo definitely emits a more...

    Are these Leghorns Roosters?

    The roos we posted above all have big tails that curl over now. I would say yours is a hen

    Are these Leghorns Roosters?

    We will probably keep one and then try to find homes for the others. We have a few friends with just hens.

    Are these Leghorns Roosters?

    We are new to chickens. We purchased six brown leghorns at TSC as pullets. I think the first three pics are roos. Do you agree? The last pic I believe is our one and only leghorn hen.

    Bantam - White Wynadote??

    I am new to chickens so trying to learn all I can. For old English Game Bantams, do they all have single combs or can they have pea combs too? This little chick has a wide, bumpy comb. The feathers are curly on the ends unlike the other chicks in with it (excluding the crazy looking Barred...
