Very good point haha the pattern on the neck made me wonder if anyone had any insight on the mix maybe. Looks like a certain breed I’ve seen before but can’t remember.
This whole time I’ve assumed I’ve got a girl and still do think that but the comb and wattle are already red and legs are big. Is it in fact a girl or is it a boy? Do they just grow faster? 8 weeks old today.
This is my little guy, Freedom. I hatched him out with others that were supposedly Easter Egger / Deathlayer mix which seems to have been more of a barnyard mix cause I also have a barred rock in that batch. I can’t tell what he is though. Is he Deathlayer and Easter Egger or maybe something...
Sounds good. Yeah I have a little brooding pen in the coop I planned to use. I don’t have electricity yet to install a small fan but I did put a floor fan on top of the brooding pen to circulate air more. I go out frequently throughout the day to check on everyone so that wouldn’t be a problem...
I have 5 girls that are close to 2 years and 2 that are 5 months. No they’re not in the run yet. I’m wondering if it’s too hot to put them in. I don’t have a run, just my yard for free ranging. I have on occasion brought them outside in a carrier to see each other but not on a regular basis.
I have 9 5 week old chicks that I want to move into the coop with my 7 big girls. It’s real hot out so I’d assume I can’t keep them in there without being able to also come out. Am I able to go ahead and integrate or should I still wait? It gets to be about 90-100 in the coop sometimes with this...
