    Buff Brahma help 6 weeks

    Here are our two “pullets” and I’m hoping they stay that way but not sure. I have zero experience with this breed and sexing them seems more difficult for me. Thank you!

    Need help Buff Brahma Sexing

    Hi! So I’ve raised chicks for about 3 years. But these two babies are our first brahmas and I’m clueless about sexing them. They are suppose to be pullets (Mt Healthy Hatchery), and are 4 1/2 weeks old. I know it may be a bit early, but appreciate any feedback and what to watch for. Thank you!

    Help with breed and age!

    They said an elderly person had them and was not able to take care of them. They showed me the paperwork from animal control and that was it. I was wondering as well. They will be adopted out fast.

    Help with breed and age!

    Picked up these girls from the local animal shelter. There were 13 total and the males had much bigger combs and waddles so hoping these are all girls. Are these Cochin mix? They have feathered feet and a bunch of pin feathers coming in. No clue on age or breed! But SUPER sweet!!!

    Chicken Chunnel off of run to run extension (and pics of coop)

    We too waited until they got settled in their secure run. Then we felt like they needed more space but only had it down the hill. So we built this over the last several weekends and open it up when we are outside. Feels good to give them more space and more secure than just letting them out when...

    Black Australorp - First Eggs!

    That’s a wonderful idea!! I’m right there with you- it’s just so exciting, like finding a little present! I’m sure your third girl will lay soon. Don’t you just love BA’s? Mine are the sweetest and love to lay in my lap and my daughter’s lap.

    Black Australorp - First Eggs!

    Had to share! Our 11 Black Australorps are 19 1/2 weeks old today and our Celia laid her first egg!!! It's small but I've read that can be quite normal at first. We are so excited! It's like Christmas :)

    15 1/2 week Black Australorps soon to lay?

    Is it true that when pullets get bigger combs and waddles and they redden, then they are close to laying? My girls are 15 1/2 weeks and a its like all of a sudden their combs and waddles grew like crazy and reddened. Should I switch them to layer feed? These are my first babies.

    White spot on Australorp nostril

    Thank you all! I’ll keep an eye to see if it grows. But hopefully it’s just a little defect.

    White spot on Australorp nostril

    I noticed this spot about 1 month ago. She’s 15 1/5 weeks and it doesn’t seem to bother her. Acting perfectly normal. I just don’t know what it is. Any ideas? It’s raised in a little lump

    Thank you so much!!! That is all truly very helpful. I also find it very interesting and appreciate your experience. I’m really enjoying this flock. They will be 14 weeks on Sunday for sure and am hoping for all pullets since my neighborhood doesn’t allow roosters. Technically it doesn’t allow...
