I don’t have room IN the coop for the crate. But I can do supervised visits, good idea!
I have not actually investigated inside the vent, but I am 99% sure she laid yesterday (unless someone else did double duty), and she is pooping (which I thought wouldn’t be the case if egg bound?).. she has...
...injury, but is there anything besides electrolytes I should be getting at tractor supply? (going to get those & bedding).
3) I am reading this *could* actually be from either Merck’s (spelling), in which case I will NOT see improvement over time, or be a result of nutritional deficiency...
Hi! I’m back again, this time with Louise & Thelma 🤣
Louise has been slightly bigger (taller and wider) for a week or two (they were chicks bought together and seemed same age) & has darker feathers on her wings. I swear the posture is slightly different as well. (Edited to add: approx 8 weeks...
So pretty!
Not really....I went to TSC for a starlight green egger, was told they were gone. Was given a “pearl star” who lays blue/green eggs (but they really don’t) 🤣🤣 I don’t think she’s that either. I do know none of the other breeds there were what I wanted (although I can’t remember what...
Curious...Can we know for sure roo on this one, yet? 6 weeks, silver laced Wyandotte.
He loves to charge/chest bump the others. The comb has been red for about 2 weeks. I’m making an effort to hold/handle him every day, despite his efforts to evade that 🤣 because I have nothing against keeping...
I’m suspecting Bean is a roo as well. I posted all the chicks for a pullet vs roo guessing game in the appropriate board, but out of the 6, that’s the one I really think is a roo. I personally would love to have a roo (as long as he’s nice), but with such a small flock am hopeful I only have...
We did 8:30 the first night. Last night was later & less traumatic because they had already sleepy & huddled into a box I have in the run so they were much easier to move into the coop. Seems like 9 is better then 8.
I’m putting a small light in the coop tonight to see if that helps them WANT to...
Thought I would update...almost 5 weeks old. She’s a pretty thang! And I am a complete newbie, but based on google, I am pretty sure those who said welsummer were right!
Ok so all these are supposed to be pullets. And I know approx 5 weeks is early, but thought it would be fun to see if anyone thinks I have a roo in my crew.
We have a silver laced Wyandotte, 2 gold laced Wyandotte, barred rock, black astralorp & previous mystery chick I posted about before...
