    Moulting, Mites or Age?

    Thank you for your concern, but even though some believe Garlic is toxic to chickens, it is completely fine and actually wards off mites...

    Moulting, Mites or Age?

    Thanks, she is pretty. And no, she and her friends seem to be mite-free. The garlic was an extra precaution. Were your older hens able to grow them back? Thanks

    Moulting, Mites or Age?

    This is my five-year old Orpington and she's looking a bit raggedy. I first thought it might be moulting, but it's a little late for that now (it's mid-winter where I live). I then thought it could've been mites, but she has been fed so much garlic lately her breathe smells like an Italian...

    What Breed (or Gender) is this Chick?

    What breed are these chooks?

    Thank you! For a long time, I just thought she was a really fat Black Rock. Turns out she was just a chunky Orpington... :)

    What breed are these chooks?

    We got her as a chick from a farm in Waikato, New Zealand. They had a lot of Light Sussexes and Rhode Islands. Do you think a black Orpington was crossed with one of those?
