    Dirty Bum Feathers, No Diarrhea

    My chocolate orpingtons are like that. They are just so darn fluffy that if I dont trim it, it gets dirty *_* no diarrhea and no mites. For mites, I use a deep cat litter pan and mix wood ash (from our wood boiler), DE, and permethrin powder and let them go to town. Never any problems ^_^ I...

    Is Cackle Hatchery reliable?

    I've never actually used Cackle but I know a lot who have and seem to be happy with them. They have been around for a while. You may also see, if you use FB, if there are any local chicken groups to your area that sell hatching eggs. Could save you some money that way. Most hatcheries have a...

    RIR?? Welsummer??

    Definitely not a Welsummer. I would lean more toward RIR. Beautiful pullet!

    Hen or rooster?

    I'm going to say pullet. Having been born mid June, I would expect to see more comb and male specific feathers, like the saddle feathers. Speckled sussex can have white feathers like that all over. My speckled sussex hens head and neck is all white like a bald eagle and has several white tail...

    What mix do you think this cockerel is??

    I thought perhaps RIR too. All my RIR mixes usually have black tail feathers. He must truly be a mix of a mix, lol.

    What mix do you think this cockerel is??

    I got this little guy as a chick, of course hoping for a pullet, lol. But he is too sweet so far and actually quite pretty. No one knew what mix he was...I'm thinking he may have some buff orpington?? But not sure of other? What do you all think. He is about 6 months old.

    Color questions

    Not sure if this is the right thread...curious about a few things. When it comes to a speckled sussex hen, how is that transferred to chicks? Is it like barring? And then what about Chocolate Orpingtons? I lost my rooster but have two hens left. Breeding to another color, just for backyard mix...

    What do you do with your dead (chickens, ducks, quail, etc...)

    We burn ours and/or take them in the back woods and let the wildlife have them. Circle of life. Buried/burned/in the woods, it all feeds something in the end.
