I'm wanting to start a little hatchery soon. But there's a problem that needs to be taken care of. I have a rooster who's the offspring of my dominant rooster and they've already fought twice. It was pretty ugly to watch them fight. Finally after separating them I let them establish it after...

My sweet hen, Petralina, went missing last night and this morning I come across a few of her feathers that were scattered. When I saw the feathers I knew what had happened. Petralina was one of the most successful mother hens I ever had. She has gone broody many times, hatched five chicks in the...
Anybody have pictures of sexlinked crosses? Everybody knows about the red sex links and black sex links. But what I'm talking about is sex linked breeds that you have created on your own. You can have any color of rooster except white, and you can only have a white hen for the rooster to breed...

Buff Orpington (Broody)...
I have a buff orpington who is broody. I want to keep her in a place away from the flock without breaking her broodiness. I have a portable chicken run and I was thinking I could put her in it with her eggs. Any suggestions?
Ok, so I went to tractor supply and got me some chicks from tractor supply. I got three white chicks from the White Leghorn Pullet Crate. I thought I was getting three white leghorn pullets. But this chick here is not a white leghorn. My only concern is a light brahma.
