I really want some lavender orpingtons. I found a person on here to buy straight run from, but... That really makes me worry that I may get all boys! I cant have roosters in my area.
Does ANYONE have some sexed girls they are willing to sell me and ship to West Valley City?! PLEASE?! You would...
Hey All!
I am looking for some sexed chicks... from someone near Salt Lake, or willing to ship to me. (Shipping costs covered of course!) I need ones that are docile and don't mind being confined (we have a VERY VERY VERY large run..its like over half of our yard) I am aiming for a pretty egg...
our flock got attacked almost three weeks ago. we took two to the vets. one is doing fantastic the other still hasn't been herself so we made another appt for her on Monday ( the soonest they could see her) today she was standing upright and walking...
Hey all. We had two dogs attack our flock, long story short we lost 4 hens and have 4 left, 3 injured. One we didnt take to the vets, she just had a small cut on her back. The chicken expert at our feed store had us get Vetericyn wound and skin care, and she seems to be doing just fine now, shes...
Yesterday our flock got attacked by dogs that dug into the run.... 4 were killed, 3 injured, 1 untouched. One had just mainly lost feathers and has a minor cut. Per the reccomendation of the "Chicken Expert" at our amazing local feed store, we got stuff to clean and shes bandaged up and fine. We...
I need some help to figure out the sex of one of my wyandottes... My husband thinks we have a roo and a pullet, but I'm not too sure. When our silkie was a boy, we knew very quickly. These ones are 17 weeks, and just in the past two weeks have they shown drastic changes in their combs and...
I went out to check on the girlies and give them their treats and clean the coop. When I let them out to forage I noticed one of the golden sexlinks (one of the older ones) had a pale comb. I looked her over and didn't notice anything out of the ordinary.... I checked her poo which looked...
His name is Coco (we named him BEFORE we knew he was a roo, and the name just stuck!) and we got him from our local feed store..... These were our first chickens, so I didnt think about asking specifics.. lol. ALL I know is he is a silkie. I was wondering if anyone could shed some light to what...
Oh so much has happened with the Harem since last I posted... The girls are getting BIG! Annnd....... we lost two. :( We lost a RR and a black sex-link... They were killed by our landlords dog.. BUT. we adopted 3 ameraucanas... (but I think they are mixed with something?? IDK.) Those girlie's...
We found out that one of chicks we got in April is a roo, and I was unsure if they require a different type of feed then the girlies do? Its kind of a stupid question, but I want to make sure all my cheeps have all their needs met!
Thanks!
We purchased our chicks from our LFS, sexed, with a 10% chance of being male.. We purchased them 6 weeks ago, and were told they vary in age but are between 1-2 weeks.. We are new to chickens, but its apparent to us that Coco has some differences comb and wattle wise compared to our other...
Hi!
