    How old does a pullet have to be to go broody?

    I have a pullet that just started laying last month. She was very irregular and just dropping eggs where ever she was at the time.

    Opinions!

    I have this light sussex chick, now about 3 months old. I know by the comb it looks like a roo, but it is not showing any signs of a roo. The comb and waddles are not very red and he hasn't tried to crow like the others. Whay do you think?

    chicken starter to layer feed

    sexing chicks

    I saw a thread the last week that had a video on sexing chicks. She was sexing them by their feathers at 1-2 days old. Does anyone remember who this was or can pass the video back to me. I can't remember if the double layer of feathers is the cock or pullet.

    Day old chick that keeps throwing her head up.

    I just hatched some chicks, and I have one buff that is only a day old that keeps throwing her head up and falling backwards. I have hatched chicks before and have never seen this, could she be sick? Even when I turn her upright and have her in my hand she is swinging her head up. If any one...
