    What breed are my chickens and rooster please?

    These two are from my EE Roo Winston and my sister's lavender Orpington hen. The solid black girls are the same breeding and they have iridescent feathers randomly on their whole body

    Raising a blind chick

    I have seen several live a happy and productive life. They are amazingly adaptable and will figure out how to do the things they need in their own unique ways.

    What color will this silkie be?

    This is my Buff Roo Harry, before he got all the colors he was very close to yours. But I don't think you can count out partridge for your baby either. Hope to see how she grows out! 😃

    Winston let's loose

    He has to be the first one to greet me every time I go in the chicken yard. He gets the rest of the guys going and it takes me saying hello and that I hear them by name to stop the round robin

    Second guessing that my big boy is the breed I purchased

    Hybrid is my guess. The gentleman I got him from isn't a breeder so far as just throwing in whatever he's go in the same pen, he is a good breeder that I think was not given a full disclosure of the parents lines and he breed to his knowledge of.

    Second guessing that my big boy is the breed I purchased

    His parents were bought in a lot of several breeds at a auction and they were WLH... Him and his brother were hatched and being Roosters they were sold as WLH. That's all I know, I was looking for a trio or chicks and a friend of both of us asked if I would like to get them, I didn't want two...

    Second guessing that my big boy is the breed I purchased

    Speaking of Bresse, I traded a few of my extra roosters for what we're supposed to be Bresse pullets. I'm not going to assume that they are that. If so, I have 4 that are just shy of 4 months old and they are actually pretty babies. I don't see them getting as big as giagantor the white Wonder...

    Hey there from Central Alabama

    I don't think I have ever seen a hen do it for anyone other than her chicks, even then she was just keeping the other hens back from the chicks but continued to eat with the chicks. Roosters are some of the most wide ranging behavior having creatures that I have been around. They are complex...

    They are so so spoiled by him. He brings them treats and does not eat a bit until they are full

    Second guessing that my big boy is the breed I purchased

    He's massive also. He's roughly 20" and 2 and a half ft wing span. He's 10 months old and weighs just over 6lbs. Maybe I was misinformed or I misunderstood their breed traits and he is just on the larger side of these growth ranges. He's a great Roo, still a little flighty and not a cuddle up...
