Sorry. Just saw this.
He usually fights them so they can't eat. We have to take the roosters out of the coop so the hens can eat. There are 2 sets of 4 chickens (8 chickens) and 1 set is older than the other. Would that cause a problem?
Thank you for all of the responses!
There are 2 roosters and 6 hens. We still have them inside in a small little fold-out that's 6ft x 2ft. We are going to build their coop this month and move them out. There is one food source and one water source. What do you think would be causing them...
Heyyy! It's been a while but the chickens have grown up! I was just wondering if it is normal for roosters to be pinning other chickens' necks down to the floor or if they stop the other chickens from eating so they can eat first. (they haven't learned the pecking order yet)
We don't need any more spongebob names... I am just letting yall know I will not be as active anymore and i will try to keep up this hatch-a-long but if i stop posting, just know that its ok
Thank you!
The colors of the parents were (I THINK) white, blue, buff, black, and partridge, although I can't be sure. These eggs were shipped in. I have never incubated before. In fact, I have never had chickens before! I am so excited also!
Hey y'all! #2,4,5,and 6 don't have names so if anyone has suggestions, let me know!
I decided to let y'all name the eggs instead of me naming a few so y'all name away!!
