What age are they can you tell? If I have a female I want to know when she will lay. When do pigeons normally lay? Irrelevant...

    My cockerel can't walk and has a weak or bent leg.

    Yes one of the little chicks is showing same signs. Bug he just stands there and even sleeps while standing and looks really ill. I think it's the same disease. As to being vaccinated I don't know whether any of them were vaccinated. Now might be too late.

    My 4.5 months old cockerel was fine until a week ago.one day, he just couldnt walk and kept his right leg bent as if he is too weak to support himself. There is no visible injury. He stays very low and sits down the moment I touch him. When he walks, he limps with apparent difficult. His left...

    Can you identify my chicken breeds?

    the other thread was to ask about egglaying but everyone focused on the breed. This was to ask about the little chicks mostly. The chicks came from unknown source through a friend of mine who might have gotten it imported through some sources like he imports his parrots.

    What gender and breed are my chickens? When will they start laying if hen?

    (she had to stand In the sunlight for the pic that's why she's hot.) It's a single comb for sure. Also she matches a lot of campine pics.the texture of her lower body is a bit different but that may be due to other influence and mix breeding. when she was little(notice the strange pattern on...
