    Breed and eggs

    I am sure i have not put this in the right spot, sorry. I use to have a link for eggs, it was a breed chart and it gave egg color and size for that breed. It also gave if that breed was for cold weather or not. Any clues?

    Hen or Rooster

    Yes i thought that is what she was doing was taking on the role. I have had RIRs roosters before and do have hens. Oh i do have another one of this breed and she is most definitely a hen, her comb is small and she is a bit smaller. I guess not having spurs is what has me confused

    I think I found a miracle cure for feather picking

    I don't know how to stop them, mine did it and they stopped just as quick as they started and i didn't change anything. chickens are weird, just when you think you have them figured out they change. just like deer lol

    I think I found a miracle cure for feather picking

    You all should listen to mavrik. this guy will tell you what you want to hear to sell more of his product. just because one person does it does not make it good for everyone. you all know grit helps a chicken with digestion. this has not helped flo and jim will not pay to replace your loving pets!

    How do I help my chickens in Excessive HEAT?

    I add water to some the holes that my chickens dig to dust themselves in. They love playing in the puddles and drink from them. They could care less that the buckets are clean and have fresh water. Plus i was wondering why not cheap plastic fans are the metal ones better?
