    Think my hen is trying to crow

    Haha sounds like the poster child for LGBTQs. I haven't actually observed my hen in the act as they all shut up and come running when they hear the door open. Maybe it won't progress anymore then though, from what you said

    Think my hen is trying to crow

    Yeah I guess it could be either. I used to have a hen who had one spur. I guess we'll see if it develops

    My BO/Ameraucana mix is very sweet and lays pretty khaki eggs (see below) She's the one on the right This is her sister, a BO/Jersey Giant. I love her colors and markings but she goes broody like once a month :/

    Think my hen is trying to crow

    She's a welsummer, about 3.5 years old if that matters. She's always been SUPER noisy, every morning egg or not she'll do the bwuck bwuck bwuck BWACK call and get all the other hens (4 total) to join in with her, it will last 10+ minutes sometimes . But her call changed recently, now she builds...

    Escape Artist Chicken

    Haha well I don't know yet how she's getting out! She actually isn't good about coming when called when she's out and about. Usually I'll be whistling and such walking around and I'll hear a distant "bwuuuuacccckkkk" and I'll have to follow the sound. Even then, last time when she saw me she was...

    Escape Artist Chicken

    Yeah on second thought I see cats in our yard all the time and they never do more than watch them. So far she hasn't been crossing the street, she likes to go into the backyard of our neighbor with feral cats... I was thinking that she may not even be using her wings, she could be hopping from...

    Escape Artist Chicken

    I'm pretty sure... got all the long flight feathers, might have missed a couple of the shorter ones but are those that important? I mean, I don't think she's ever been attacked. And admittedly I see cats watching the chickens in the backyard all the time and they've never done anything. But I...

    Escape Artist Chicken

    We have an escape artist of a chicken. In the past after her molt she would discover her wings were no longer clip and resume her daily flight over our 7 foot or so fence to roam the feral-cat filled neighborhood She recently finished molting and once again discovered she could fly over the...

    BO/Ameraucana Egg

    Hasn't happened since so I guess it was just a one time thing.

    BO/Ameraucana Egg

    I'm not sure I fully understand you...I've never own mixed breed chickens before (unless sex links count) but my chickens have never had a significant variation in their egg color. So I'd assume the same would go for mixed breed chickens too. But I don't know what color her mom's (Ameraucanna)...

    BO/Ameraucana Egg

    Thanks. You mean other eggs laid wouldn't be the same color?

    BO/Ameraucana Egg

    Just wanted to post a picture of my BO/Ameraucana's first egg in case anyone was interested in this mix. The picture doesn't really do it justice, but it came out a nice khaki color. She's laid 2 more eggs since and they were about the same size and color, so they're not the largest eggs...

    Grower or Layer for My Pullets?

    The BO/JG has a red comb and wattles, but the other on doesn't have wattles because of her beard and her comb doesn't look super red but it's small.

    Grower or Layer for My Pullets?

    I have two pullets who are both 7mos old. They are sisters but have different moms, their father was a BO but one is half Jersey Giant and the other is half Americana (or was it Araucana? I know it was whichever was a more pure breed, not just an EE). They don't seem to be full size. Still...

    When Will I Know For Sure the Gender

    Aw man, you think so? I guess we'll see how she is when she's older. My two hens are somewhat of bullies so they'll hopefully keep her in line. I was expecting them to both be quite docile with their breeding...

    Is There a Difference Between Chick and Grower Feed?

    Okay, thanks!

    Is There a Difference Between Chick and Grower Feed?

    Hi all, I need to buy food today (am leaving on vacay for a few days as of tomorrow). My two pullets are about 14 weeks old. I've been giving them this grower feed which appeared to be a lot of different seeds mixed up. But I just called a local nursery and they said they don't stock grower...

    When Will I Know For Sure the Gender

    Thanks! I'm so relieved. Is she just not as docile as the other then? She pecks me sometimes when I reach for her. I've never had a chicken who did that
