Half of my girls seem to have scruffy back feathers just at the base of their back near their tails. All other chickens seem fine. We have checked for mites and lice and no sign of either. Any guesses on what might be happening? They do have a rooster, he is a smaller guy, and most of them are...
Hello. I am currently looking for some home treatment suggestions.
My welsummer rooster, 4 months in age, has red, itchy, cloudy eyes. It started in one eye and now both eyes seem to be red and itchy. We have tried terramycin ointment 2 times daily for 7 days and it did not seem to cure it. We...

Hello everyone, I have purchased eight chicks from tractor supply. All except one were listed as pullets. Any guesses on gender? Should be around 4 weeks.
3 starlight green eggers
1 buff Orpington
1 black australorp
1 assorted bantam maybe u’duccle or??
We definitely got them at tractor supply listed as pullets. we definitely got two roosters with the first batch. We may have one in the second round. I will post those the other forum to see what other people think.
