    Salmon Favorelle Roo or Pullet?

    Her sister looks better but yeah hatcheries are always a draw. It’s why I was second guessing myself on this one!

    Salmon Favorelle Roo or Pullet?

    A local feed store, not sure what hatchery they use though. Possibly Ideal Poultry.

    Salmon Favorelle Roo or Pullet?

    Thanks! That’s what I was leaning towards but was wondering if I was just in denial, lol.

    Salmon Favorelle Roo or Pullet?

    I’m a bit confused on one of my Salmon Favorelles. It does have some black feathers on its chest which I know is normally a cockerel sign but it’s not a big block of them and it otherwise is pretty similar to its sister in appearance. Not sure if it’s just because it’s hatchery quality or if...

    Mystery Chick Breed ID?

    Somehow I ended up with three mystery chicks. Two of them were supposed to be wellsummers but clearly are not, I can’t remember what the other was supposed to be. Originally I thought some kind of red/golden sex link but they seem to have barring. Any ideas on breed?

    BROODER thread! Post pics of your brooders!

    This was cooked up by my very handy father and is made out of scrap wood and chicken wire. The floor is black plastic covered with thick layer of shavings. It has hinges hinges on the side allow it to be folded up when not in use which is very convenient! And an Australian Shepherd for flavor, lol.

    Introducing Puppy to Flock

    Hello everyone, I'm wondering about how to go about introducing a puppy to my flock. The pup in question will be an Australian Shepherd. The flock has run of the entirety of the yard- about 1/2 an acre that's fenced. I'm assuming that keeping the puppy leashed initially is best but beyond that...

    Please help w/4 week old bully

    Hopefully someone else chimes in, but that might be normal behaviour. My dominant pullet has always been similar- she’d bite and/or try and pull off any who were sitting higher up than her- recently she pulled some tail feathers out of one of the cockerels for that sin. The wing flapping seeks...

    Bought “sexed” chicks from the feed store, confirm my suspicions that this is a cockerel???

    That’s bad odds with only 3 birds but it happens. Might check if they’ll take him back or not if you can’t keep him.

    How can I get them tamed?

    Same for me. As tiny babies they're all terrified of me, but as they get older they get much more friendly and curious.
