I am getting some Chiquita hatching eggs from a friend tomorrow. I don’t really know anything about that “breed” but I never turn down anything free and I was going to fire up the incubator anyway. :D Does anyone have any thoughts or experience with these chickens? Are they a “real” breed or...

Update: the chick died.
This morning when my husband went to let out the chickens, he found that one of our four-week-old Buff Orpington chicks had a bloody flayed back! The chicks had been closed up by themselves in a separate coop with their "mother," a Silkie cross, and are also within an...

Free white Isbar cockerel of breeding age, about 5 months old. He is fairly stand-offish to people and moves out if the way if you approach him. He breeds the hens but hasn't quite figured out proper "wooing" yet lol. He tends to be the more submissive one of the my two Isbar cockerels. He's...
Update: Found a home!
Super cute little black Frizzle Bantam Rooster needs a new home! Free! I'm rehoming him for a friend. He's very nice to people and hens but really beat up their other bantam rooster so he needs to be in an area separate from other roosters.
I'm in Geneva, OH, about an...

I'm not at all affiliated with them. They just showed up on my Facebook feed and the chickens said they would stop laying if I didn't sign up for a free bag. Just thought I'd let everyone else know too!
Pretty sure about four months old - can't remember! Sorry that the pics aren't very good. He/she is skittish but I can have my husband help me get better photos tomorrow if necessary.
Solved! Verdict: Cockerel that will be saved for breeding
Parentage: Black Copper Maran rooster over Ameraucana hen
Age: about four-five months? (Can't remember!) No crowing or I wouldn't be asking yet lol

My husband finally got around to taking some bags of partially decomposed deep litter duck bedding and dumping them in our compost area. The chickens were thrilled, especially when a mouse ran out! It took approximately 2 seconds for a hen to pounce on it and about 2 seconds after that for the...

Of the six chicks that hatched that day, three were white...
Is feather meal in poultry feed okay, bad, not bad but really just filler - what are your thoughts?
Currently I've been getting awesome locally grown, non-gmo feed for $21 per 50 lb bag (and that's at "farm pricing" discount since I buy so much). However, since we moved to our farm a few months...

I purchased them recently with the intention of...
I recently acquired some extra roosters from a local farm that has great lines but still only needs only so many males. Most of the roosters will go to freezer camp, a couple funny bantams might get to live in the "Boys Only Club" (aka the sheep pasture) for the entertainment value they provide...
