Would it be a good idea to isolate her from the flock to keep her comfortable? I was thinking about bringing her in the house to help keep her cool and make sure she is eating a drinking. Right now we are getting triple digit heat so I know it does not take long for them to overheat if they...
Yes, and as far as I could tell this morning when I let them out to free range she was fine. I should add that I don’t normally free range them and have just recently started getting brave enough to let them out. Getting stung would be highly possible because we have a horrible wasp problem...
I let my chickens out this morning for maybe 2 hours and found this hen with swollen waddles, she isn’t very active and I’m concerned if I need to separate her from the rest of the flock or just keep an eye on her
I’m so confused on what breed this girl is, the other pullet that I got at the same time as her has a red comb but this one’s comb as slowly turned black as she gets older. I really just want to know what possible breed she could be because i really like the way she looks and want more chickens...
So I have suspected these two partridge chantelcers were roosters for a little bit now, mostly due to them being a lot taller than the others and they seem to always be trying to boss everyone around. First two pictures are the smaller one who I’m not 100% on yet the 3rd picture is both of them...
Thank you! I plan on buying it a couple more friends this weekend. I wanted to give it a couple days to make sure it’s not sick or anything first before bringing new babies in with it
So today my mom brought this baby home that someone had found on the side of the road, they told her it was a duck but I’m starting to think it is a wild gosling that got separated from its little family, I offered it some wet down all flock crumbles and put fresh water and water with...
Thank you! I was kind of thinking sapphire gem, I bought 3 last year that looked identical to these and all 3 turned barred and were roosters. And if the black one is the same as the one I bought last year I’m guessing she would be a maran because my girl from last year lays super dark brown eggs
Can someone tell me what breed they are? I got them from Attwoods they are roughly 6/7 weeks old the blue ones were in the same bin as the black one with feathered legs (which I’m assuming is a Maran?) they were just labeled as assorted pullets. The brown ones were labeled as partridge...
