    Odd hen??? What's wrong with her?

    I have a showgirl rooster. He has 1 showgirl hen and 3 amberlink hens. He also has a d'uccle bantam hen. She is the oddball. They are all laying. They all get along really good, but the rooster doesn't seem to want to "service" the d'uccle. Not sure if it's because she is smaller or a different...

    Can someone name this breed????

    My brother gave this lil' hen to my daughter because his large hens picked on her. I have 3 bantam phoenix's so I put her with them. She is full grown and is much smaller than the others. She looks like a dove.lol any idea what she is? lays very small white eggs.

    Kinda new with chicks...how good is the memory???

    I have a flock of 9....they are about a year old. I got them when they were about 6 wks old. We decided to expand our flock and went to the local feed store and bought 8 babies...they said maybe 2-3 days old. I've had them about a week and can already tell the difference in them even though...
