Great. Thank you. One more question, sorry for all the questions, if I ever want to have a rooster, how and when will I know if he is going to be a good rooster?
Hello All!!,
I currently have 6 four year old hens, 2 two year old hens and 1 pullet and a cockerel that are about to be 5 months old. I have never had a cockerel before so I know nothing about them. He gets checked by some of my old hens but there are two older hens that just won’t stand up...
Hi All!!,
This baby hatched on April 1st. So it will be 8 weeks old tomorrow. Any guesses on the gender? I thought cockerel at first but now I’m questioning it. Please help!!
I have a flock of 9 chickens currently. All mixed. Some of my hens are almost 2 years old and I have 2 3 month old OE. My one Austrolorp just tonight started acting strange. She’s acting as if she can’t see, her feathers are falling out very easily and she’s running away from us as if she’s...
Hi all, I bought what I thought were Olive Eggers but now second guessing. Need you experts out there to tell me what you think. They’re 4 weeks old and supposed to be pullets. TIA!!
Yes, only new bird. I know she doesn’t need calcium yet but she also doesn’t need chick grit either? She’s not gorging on anything just eating and drinking normally. Yes, the I can see her perfectly through the crate. So Corid is Amprolium which is in medicated chick starter and grower, right?
Yes, we removed her right away. She’s in a crate currently with water grit and grower crumbles. Should I treat with coccidia dewormer regardless? If so, what’s the name and where can I get it?
Okay, will do. What could I treat her with if she does have Coccidia? I’m not used to this cause my chickens health is very important to us. Unfortunately, yes she was thrown in by the crazy guy who brought her to us. So annoying. I told my husband to get that chicken out of our coop right away...
I thought the same thing. Seems sick right? We put he/she into a crate in our garage and it seemed to be great but whenever we hold it it becomes very still. Do you think it’s sick?
