    Hen or Rooster?

    We were just sold three Easter Egger chickens and told that one was a rooster and two were hens. They're about six months old and the "rooster" is crowing. We are not convinced that the other two are hens, however. Please let me know your thoughts. The whiter one is the rooster.

    Chickens Hanging Necks, Weak

    This is what the hen looked like. She is about seven months old. Was just moved into the chicken coop a few weeks ago. We rebuilt the chicken coop from an old shed so it's possible that the chickens are exposed to rusty nails. I'll be able to give more in depth responses this afternoon when I go...
