    Oh, ok thanks. Good to know.

    Please tell me these 2 are hens...

    The second one is maybe a week older than the others. I was wondering if they were mixes of a cuckoo maran and a BR. Coloring of a maran, legs or a BR?! Idk. I'm going to be sad if these are both roos too. I posted another set of pics of two others, and the consensus is they're roos. My kids are...

    Please tell me these 2 are hens...

    The guy I got them from said he hatched barred rocks, cuckoo marans, and games. My guess would be the cucoo marans, because their color is more brown than black like the BR's. But with their legs being yellow, it throws me off.

    I thought Games were smaller? I knew if the first one was a roo, he was a game. But I was wondering if maybe the other was a different breed. My 5 yr old will be disappointed that the top one is a roo.

    Hey everyone. These two chicks are about 11 weeks old. I was wondering if they're both roos, and if you know what breed they are? The guy we got them from said he hatched out Game, Cucoo Marans, and Barred Rocks. I know they're not the Marans or BR's, but idk what they are. The one on the bottom...

    Coughing, sneezing, and one with clear snot

    Hey everyone, I have a question. I've looked up some posts on this topic, but none seem to fit my situation I guess. I have 5 girls, 3 I've had for 9 mos, and 2 I got a couple of months ago. Only 3 are cuttently laying, the newer 2 aren't quite old enough. Everyone is perfectly healthy...

    No energy and bright green poop!

    Hey everyone, I have a red/golden comet that's having some issues. I was told she's about 11 mos old, but I can't be totally sure. We've had her since Sept and haven't had any problems up until the last 2 weeks. She layed a really soft shelled egg, with some kind of yellow goo on it, and that...

    What's wrong with my girl?!

    I know that the speck on the right is poo, but What is that yellow goo? The thing on it appears to be some sort of seed. The shell was Super thin, andwas cracked at both ends. I collected it right after she laid it because it was still warm. She was acting a little funny when I went into the...

    Too much calcium??

    I feed them the Dumor Layer food. And what ever left over bread, fruits and veggies we have. They get plenty of bugs and what ever they find roaming around the backyard too. We've only had her for about a month, but she's been healthy.

    Too much calcium??

    It is totally on the outside of the shell. I can scrape it off with my fingernail. I had another post up on here asking what it was, and people responded that it looked like extra calcium, that's why I said that. I have no idea what it is. It's almost like if I ground up a regular egg shell into...

    Too much calcium??

    I only have 2 laying hens out of my 6, the others are too young still. She lays an egg with this stuff on it maybe 2-3 every other week. Not a whole lot, but some. She's laie every day for the past 2 weeks, was about every other day before that. I've never given them extra calcium, just the...

    Too much calcium??

    I was told this was calcium deposits on her egg. Is there something I need to do? Is too much calcium bad for them? Help please!
