    Extremely Mature 4 Week Old Chick

    I bought them at 2 weeks old 2 weeks ago which would make them 4 weeks old. They’re technically barnyard mix but he should be standard size.

    Extremely Mature 4 Week Old Chick

    I bought 6 colored layers off of Craigslist and one which I know now is a boy. It crows and tidbits for the ladies at just 4 weeks old. My 3 month old roosters aren’t even crowing yet. My mind is blown.

    Lethargic 2.5 week old chick

    On a 20% starter/grower that’s all my other chicks are on. Crop didn’t feel hard but was full. I don’t see any bloody poop in the brooder but there’s 5 other Easter Eggers and 4 smaller chicks in with the sick chick.

    Lethargic 2.5 week old chick

    I just recently bought 6 2 week old Easter Egger chicks on Craigslist. All are healthy except for one black chick. It sits ontop of the heat plate all puffed up with its eyes closed. It doesn’t join the other chicks while eating and drinking. What do I do?

    Cockrell?

    This is a BlueBell Egger that is about 6-7 weeks old. Sometimes I look at it and think it might be a pullet but most of the times I think it’s a cockrell. Loves to sparr with my other cockrel.

    Suggestions on what to do with Unwanted Roosters

    I have 2 cockerels I need to get rid of and I would like to hatch more eggs in the future which will ultimately give me more roosters. What is the best way to get rid of them?

    Chicken with Wheeze While Breathing

    She’s had breathing issues before and I gave her spices and herbs to help boost her respiratory system and it went away. I noticed this about 2 weeks ago and gave her the same stuff.

    Chicken with Wheeze While Breathing

    My 3 year old Amberlink has a wheeze while she breathes. Otherwise she seems completely healthy. Her egg whites do seem a bit water when cracked though. Any suggestions for what I can give her to improve her breathing?

    17% All Flock Feed

    They aren't fully free range but they get around 20ish hours a week and even more in the summer time.

    17% All Flock Feed

    Is 17% flock feed sufficient? I can't find a 20% flock feed at my TSC.

    Pullet or Cockrel?

    I think these chicks are about 5 weeks now. Both Prairie Bluebell Easter Eggers. If both of my Eggers are boys I’m gonna be a little upset. Sorry about the quality these are screen shots from a video of them dust bathing.
