    I have 2 Xtra large barred Rock hens that are by far my largest birds in the yard. Both these girls are still laying well but have been having chronic nasty butts with large fecal clumps stuck on a regular basis for a couple months. I thought it was just because there fluffy butts but after...

    Brooding adding more chicks a week or so later?

    I have done this several times. As long as there isn't a significant size difference then I've not had issues. Just be sure not add a single chick to the group. That would be asking for the new one to get picked on because everyone will be focused on it.

    Candling eggs - I don't think these are still alive.

    How long has it been since the first egg hatched? And since you noticed the one egg cracked? Do you have any idea on how long they have been incubated by the broody?

    Oh definitely not. I didn't want to when I saw them, but I didn't want him to ride in the bed of the truck all the way back to their home.

    Thank you for your time. I think you are right. He will have good care, he is our only roo and he will have a bunch of girls to entertain. I'll post pictures of him after he gets all fixed up. Thanks again.

    Breed opinions Cockerel

    I've heard of hens crowing and asserting dominance. But I've not seen one crow, mate, tid bit calling for the girls to get treats and keep a watch out while they graze. I wasn't sure if maybe his rough care has damaged his feathers. I will just have to wait it out I think. Thank you for your...

    This is the pullet they sold me as a BRAHMA. Lol.. I told them no she wasn't. And They said they were confused and said they meant Delaware. She is supposed to be 4 months.

    Breed opinions Cockerel

    They don't seem to have been very truthful with much. He is crowing, dominating and attempting to breed with the pullet I got with him. His feathers are in bad shape, like ruffed up and broke. When they met me, he was in a bed of the truck with the cold 2 degree wind hitting him when they took...

    I will try to contact the seller again. I've tried once and they are no longer responding, so I'm probably not going to get much out of them.

    Yh Thanks, I was hoping his coloring will clear up as he matures, right now it's kind of a blurr on him in certain sections.

    I bought this boy for $5 from someone who placed an order for surprise chicks and they got alot of roos. They had no idea what he is. About 5 months old. They said they guess he is Plymouth Rock, but I don't think. What are your thoughts?? These pictures might make him look laced, but he...
