    Ok. So pretty unanimous that I am with a Roster. Now, can anyone provide any solid and humane ways to offload him?

    Are there any Delaware breeders out there??

    Hi! I have a 3 month old Delaware I'm looking to rehome. I am 90% certain it is a Roo (see my other post). Would you want it?

    Roo vs Hen - THOUGHTS?

    Hello Fellow Feathered Friends! We got (3) chicks (Barred Rock, Partridge Rock, Delaware) in late May, so they're now approx 3 months. Due to the size of the comb and wattles, the overall size, what we believe to be spur holes, and <aggressive> behavior we believe the Delaware may be a Roo...

    Yellow/Watery Poop in 3 y.o. Hen

    Thank you, Eggcessive. I was hoping to hear from you. My own research prior to posting, I saw a lot of your comments. Solid advise you're giving. Between her legs does not appear to be too enlarged, though, with that said, I'm not sure what defines 'enlarged'. I did check another hen and...

    Yellow/Watery Poop in 3 y.o. Hen

    Ah, I see about the Kale. Thanks! Standing funny, she's definitely puckered up and, yeah, perhaps standing lop sided a bit. She mostly lays around these days. Any thoughts on vent gleet? There is yellow (in pics) discharge but no foul smell.

    Kale isn't good for chickens? I was not aware, in fact read the opposite. I palpated between her legs, her left side seems larger/squishier. I checked another hen to compare but she too was a little squishy. Not sure what it's supposed to feel like to really know.

    Layering feed crumbles. We do have a duck so there is all flock pellets as well, been there her whole life. Dried black fly larva and kale for treats.

    Yellow/Watery Poop in 3 y.o. Hen

    Hello Fellow Flockers! I have a 3y.o. RIR that up until approx one-two months ago was consistently laying very large healthy eggs. She is one of our sneaky hens who seems to always escape our yard to rummage in the neighbors garden. She and her escape companion both showed symptoms of illness...

    Grumpy Molting Pekin

    Thank you, Miss Lydia. All makes total sense. From experience, how long does the molt take? She's gone through molts before but not to this extent...

    Grumpy Molting Pekin

    Our 2.5 year old Pekin started showing signs of her late summer/autumn molt about 4 weeks ago. This once friendly, happy-go-lucky, sweet, affectionate bird has suddenly turn down right crabby. Previously she would come for loves, pets, and affection. Now she just barks at us, will not let us...
