    Golden buff sex link that is almost all white - can this be a pullet?

    Where in South Texas are you located? I live in Boerne, Tx and if you're near by I'd be willing to buy the rooster or trade a couple of my RSL hens for him.

    Layers that lay, - LBrahma, Pair of RR, Pair of BR - Rio Grande Valley

    Do you like farm fresh eggs? I'm selling mature layer hens that are laying daily. I have one Light Brahma, a pair of Rhode Island Reds and another pair of Barred Rocks. My wife and I are moving out of town and I decided to just start my flock over once we get settled in.

    Going Crazy trying to ID- Game Bird?

    I need help to ID this bird. I found him/her injured on our loading dock at work. When I first saw it I thought it was a female bob-white quail but, after a closer look I'm just plain stumped as to what species or breed this bird may be. I still think it's a game bird of some sorts. It's a...

    My LB hen looks sick. Her comb has lost a lot of it's mass and has gone from bright red to a dark purple. She's lethargic and isn't eating as well as she usually does. I'd really appreciate any input from ya'll. Niko

    Light Brahmas not laying yet!

    I got them through a hatchery (Ideal Poultry out of Cameron, Tx). I live in South Texas and a couple of weeks ago we has some really cold weather for around here. So that may be a factor in all this. I'm not positive they haven't layed while free ranging but I have seen any signs of that. I...

    Light Brahmas not laying yet!

    My two light Brahma hens are almost 9 months old and they have not started laying. I know the breed develops rather slowly but, this is pretty darn slow. They've been on layer pellets for at least 4 1/2 months. Why have they not started to lay? Thanks!!

    Black feathers look green in sunlight. Rooster?

    I'm wondering if only Roosters have that greenish tinge in their black feathers? I'm pretty sure that is the case because, none of my hens have ever had that trait. I just need confirmation from some of ya'll more experienced Chicken Lovers. Thanks for ya'lls help.
