    Dog Attack

    Hello! About 3 weeks ago our neighbors dog attacked one of our hens. She has healed and grown most of her feathers back, but is terribly mean to our other chickens. I understand that the need to re-establish their pecking order, but she is hurting the other chickens badly. We have her separated...

    My family does not care that my roo needs a minimum of 5-6 hens 😔

    Yes, you definitely should have more than 3 girls with your rooster. The recommended amount is 7-13 hens per rooster. We originally had our rooster with two hens (just until we integrated them into our larger flock), and I noticed a huge difference in his behavior when we put him with our 14...

    Our new cockerel Lenny - I love him to bits!!!

    Hi! He is adorable! I have a roo that looks similar, and I suspect he might be a silkie mix (I could be wrong) although he doesn’t have many silkie features besides the feathers. I attached a photo of him :)

    Please help!

    I know this reply is really late, but thank you so much! I totally forgot that the eggs go dormant for a while during shipping! Your advice helped me hatch 5 perfectly healthy babies! Thanks!

    What breed is this roo?

    Thank you so much! This really helps! We are pretty sure that that one is an Easter egger because she came out of a light green egg, but we aren’t sure. There are many breeds that lay green eggs.

    What breed is this roo?

    I wouldn’t be surprised is they were hatched, because we bought the eggs last minute on Amazon. It sounds funny, but we actually had a pretty high hatch rate!

    What breed is this roo?

    We aren’t 100% sure, but compared to the others it has a very large/bright red comb and thicker legs. He also tends to stand straighter up and makes different sounds from the others. Thanks for your response by the way!

    What breed is this roo?

    I just recently hatched 3 eggs (2 hens one roo) and I got a silkie and an Easter egger, but I’m not sure about the roo. We thought he might be a silkie, but he doesn’t have many feathers on the top of his head or an extra toe. He’s about 8 weeks old, if that helps. Thanks! (He’s in the middle of...

    What breed are my chicks?

    Hello! I just recently hatched some chicken eggs and I can’t tell what breed some of them are. One of the chicks is a very light yellow with white wings, and seems pretty large compared to the others even though they all hatched on the same day (possibly an Orpington?). The other chick that I am...
