    Easter Egger Hen couldn't get up

    My BIL has some EEs that are just over a year old. One hen was laying in the run. She couldn't use her left leg. When food was thrown out, she sorta flopped her way over to it and ate. Her crop seemed swollen. He's pretty minimalist so he culled her. Apparently, this is the second one to...

    What do I have?

    Wyandotte....I should have known. lol I'm glad that white one is an EE, I'm hoping he becomes the reigning lord of the chickens. Now I need to look up Vorwerks.

    What do I have?

    This one has always been smaller than the rest of the chicks but not quite as small as a bantam. It's the chicken in the back, I just threw this one on here to show the size difference. It has really nice lacing, let me know if you need better pics.

    What do I have?

    Help me identify these packing peanuts and "Free Rare Breeds" that came with my chicks. They are 6-7 weeks old. I have 3 chickens in question and will make a new post for each one. THANKS!!!!! This one I have no idea what the breed or sex is. It has no tail feathers. Well, not big ones...

    Sex- linked Information

    There's no way I can figure out the genetics so I'm relying on the generocity of you smarter chicken breeders. I have just hatched eggs from an ee hen and a dominicker roo. The hatched out either black or yellow. Are they sex-linked?

    Can I move these babies outside? (pic)

    Don't jump on me about selling chickens when you don't know what's going on. People sell chickens all the time. I didn't say I was going to drive them to the country and let them go or just stick them in the coop and see what happens. There are plenty of people who would be glad to take these...
