    Mystery Bantams

    Thanks. I was thinking sebright also. Poor squirt is so small. He's the smallest chicken I've ever seen and his crow sounds like a squeaky toy. But he makes up for it in attitude. He's one of my favorites :P

    Mystery Bantams

    Hi, can anyone identify these bantam cockrels? This is squirt. He is only about 4" tall. Sunny, I think OEGB Taz, has lightly featherd legs.

    Stumped! cockrel or pullet?

    Thanks, I thought so. Its weird, the saddle feathets appear pointy but when I look closely they have a pointy center and rounded fine feathers around the pointy part. Its hard to explain.

    Stumped! cockrel or pullet?

    This is the only one I can't figure out. What do you all think? He/she is about 14 weeks. Supposed to be a Black Australorp.

    Not Black Australorp. what are they??

    Thank you, they are beautiful. I was a little upset they weren't BA's but I love the coloring. Especially the one with white/tan feathers. He's going to be georgeous!

    Not Black Australorp. what are they??

    Both have black legs and white nails. The person I got them from had black sex link, ee's,white leghorns, and australorps. They all looked the same as ckicks then 2 started to lighten up and their heads were more brown than black.

    This one has really pretty white/tan feathers. This one has brown feathers. Here they are together. And of course I think they are both boys, just my luck!!!!

    Purina Layena Crumble

    I'm new to chickens so I don't have much experience, but I was using purina chick starter and noticed loose poop. I switched to poulin chick starter crumbles and noticed a big improvement. I will be feeding them layer pellets soon. Hope this helps & good luck.

    Newbies here - Converting a shed into a coop?

    We did the same thing. We blocked off about 4 1/2 x 8 ft inside for coop and have plenty of room for brooders and feed (and room to expand). It is working out great! It also had windows already thereso we use one as the door. This first picture is the "juvenile" brooder so they can all see...
