    Are Chickens Ever Ostracized for Being Different?

    Not necessarily. As others have pointed out, it really depends on the individual temperaments of your chickens. This is Artemis, she's not quite the only crested hen in my flock of 6 (my olive egger also has a small crest) but she is the only one who's crest is large enough to partially obscure...

    Ainawgsd's farm chickens

    I'm a bit sad that I forgot to bring my phone(camera) with me when I went out to the farm this morning. I could have gotten the best picture of Rose and her giant boyfriend (one of the malines cockerels) standing side by side at the waterer. In other news, my husband continues to be an...

    Rose's left foot is looking pretty good. I didn't soak her tonight, but I did go ahead and pick the scab off, looked like just soft tissue underneath so I think it's well on its way to healing. The right foot is still a mess. But we got a lot out tonight! When we were done digging it was almost...

    8 week Speckled Sussex - Hen or Roo

    Are your other chicks also Sussex? The comb and wattles aren't particularly large or red for 8 weeks. Right now I'm heavily leaning pullet

    Rooster Attacked my wife for the first time.

    One. Especially since this was completely unprovoked and you didn't want a rooster in the first place. Even if he never attacks again, your family will need to be constantly on guard around him, and you need to consider if/how that will affect your enjoyment of your chickens.

    Meow Meow Monday!!!

    Amara and Julius, from this snapshot you'd never guess he annoys her (currently our most patient and long-suffering cat) to no end

    Any nail art enthusiasts out there?

    I've been painting and sanding and staining patio furniture so it's been a while since I did my nails. But now I'm sporting plaid pumpkins!

    Concerned about my cockerel

    He's missing the feathers on his face, I think the white is just his skin. Definitely could be molting.

    Ainawgsd's farm chickens

    With the buckeye cockerels we processed a few weeks ago we've baked, air fried, and stir fried. The legs have more texture than cornishX, but they're not chewy.

    Ainawgsd's farm chickens

    Well, the left foot actually was very rewarding. The right foot is gonna be a headache. I think the infection is all thick cheesy stuff, I got some out but its still super swollen. Also, we lost a buckeye pullet to a freak accident. She was fine this morning, and I'm pretty sure she ran to...

    What breed is this?

    Not sure what whittni sees specifically but i can tell you why I think EE. For me, it's the head shape. She doesn't have a lot of facial feathers, but more than a normal non-bearded chicken. Her face reminds me a bit of my EE Rose. I'd say the ameraucana/australorp is the father. My guess is...

    Ainawgsd's farm chickens

    Ah nuts! It's double bumblefoot 😑The right foot is by far the worst But she has a scab on the left foot too. I only brought enough bandage material for one foot, so we cleaned and wrapped the right foot. Tomorrow I think we'll go out during daylight and do a longer soak and a more thorough...

    Ainawgsd's farm chickens

    Uh oh, pretty sure the Rose has bumblefoot. Her right foot is swollen and she's limping ever so slightly. Naturally, she's the most flighty chicken on the farm!
