    Americana experts! Is this a pullet or a cockerel?

    Do you think this 6 week old Americana is a pullet? I'm being told so but have been burned before. I've edited my post with a picture of her/his head as requested by a couple of you. I'm not the owner, the head shot is what the owner sent me this morning. I'm considering taking her in because...

Peck has always been suspect as an Easter Egger since her legs are yellow, not slate like the other girls. I had a person who's been raising chickens for 30 years look at pictures of Peck, and...

    Hello all, For the past three years, we have been caregivers to 3 Buff Orpingtons that we raised from 4 weeks old. Last month, our beautiful Scarlet died suddenly. We were so sad and our 12-year old son was devastated. It was an experience that makes me wonder if I want to go through that...

    Feathers Breaking Off?

    So, I posted a problem with our 8 month old Buff Orpington who has stopped laying and is looking quite "scraggly". She was previously our most glamorous looking gal! Now, the feathers around her neck seem to be breaking off right where the feather shaft gets thick about an inch out from her...
