    Help with breed

    Had to replace one of my hens, that turned out to be a Roo instead. I was given this hen from kinfolk to replace him, but I'd like to know what I have. Ameraucana? Easter Egger? Doesn't really matter to me, as long as she's a decent layer, but my curiosity is up. What is she?

    Advice needed on one to one, or two, integration.

    Good point. That cooler you see, is in front of a large door for the run. I could set the dog crate, inside the run. That way it also has the protection of the hardware cloth surrounding the run. Thanks!

    Advice needed on one to one, or two, integration.

    I haven't even thought about putting my current hen, in the dog crate! Right now, I'm leaning towards just getting one more, instead of two. I don't want them to be so crowded it's uncomfortable for them. At this point, my inclination is to get one more, put them together late in the...

    Advice needed on one to one, or two, integration.

    I bought two pullets, and one turned out to be a Rooster! I have successfully managed to re-home the rooster, and he now has 6 lady friends. I'm sure he's happy! My questions concerns my replacement hen, or hens. First question, my coop floor is 3'x4', and my run is 4'x9', not counting the...

    YO GEORGIANS! :)

    I need to re-home a Rhode Island Red Rooster. Covington/Newton county area. I only have room for two chickens, and of course a hen/roo ratio of one to one, just won't work! No rehoming fee, free, and if you're in Newton County, I'll bring him to you. I have no problem if you're wanting him...

    Help to get my chickens to go into the coop

    What worked for me was a combination of two things. Improving the ventilation of the coop, and putting an LED light inside on a timer. The light comes on around 6:00 and goes off around 9:30. The day I installed the light, is the day they started sleeping inside.

    I’m pretty sure. This picture is a month old, and she’s the one closest to us. Not where I can go take a pic right this minute. ( The pics of the roo earlier in the post were made today). She’s still smaller, and doesn’t have near the comb and wattles as the roo. I do think she’s a she.

    Ahh…. Maybe she was, and I read it the wrong way. Guy I bought from really was a nice guy, and spent time with me, knowing I was a first timer. I don’t believe he did it on purpose, however I’ll find my replacement somewhere else. 😊

    Can we play, Hen or Roo?

    Care to expound on your statement? I don’t quite see what makes me a terrible person because I only have room for two, and want them both to be hens. I thought finding him a home where someone has more room, who actually wants a rooster would be the right thing to do. What would be your...

    Thank you folks....you confirmed what I already knew, but didn't want to believe. Guess it's time to start hunting him a new home.
