    Polish Crested hens?

    Hens? They are 4 weeks old. The silver laced one started growing head feathers first (although she is smaller) and she has more of them compared to the golden laced one who has a V-shape comb. Better to be hens. Thanks!

    Egg problem? (pic)

    Hi, What's wrong with this picture? About 2 months ago she had a red and oozy bottom and I thought that it was egg peritonitis. We even took radiographs at my work but did not see any stuck egg inside her. I am pretty sure that she has not laid any eggs since. I soaked her bottom in a warm...

    Little "nubs" between toes?

    Eggs poisoned?

    Did I screw it up? I applied Zodiac Flea & Tick Spray to my chicken yesterday (3-5 pumps/each). I just panicked because when I examined one of my Sussexes I noticed that she had a lot of lice and had lost feathers from her rump!!! I also put Sevin into their nesting boxes. By doing this did...

    Age & egglaying

    Until what age do hens lay eggs? When does the productivity go down? I am just curious because most of my hens are still rather young. The RIR has just recently started laying and I get about 5 eggs from her per week. My Delawares are about 20 weeks old now and not laying yet. I just got an...

    Which breed(s) would do well with my chicken?

    I have an OEGB rooster, 2 OEGB hens, a silkie, RIR pullet and a mixed breed cockerel (~22-25 wks old). The two roosters have been doing fine together at least until now. The cockerel has not started crowing yet and is clearly scared of the older OEGB rooster. The cockerel even respects the...
