I have 5 bantam cochins that are about 19 weeks old. I was pretty sure when they were younger I had at least one pullet and now I don't even know. They look so different from what they use to.

5. This is Big Fluffy and I am pretty sure he is a cockerel.
About an hour and a half ago I had the most serious attack on my hobby farm to date. I noticed the goats were staring into the treeline and as I looked to see what they were looking at, I saw the lifeless body of one of my chickens. As I examined her, her neck had been broken, my husband found a...
Hey guys. I'm new to turkeys and I wondered if you could help me sex the 3 that I hatched this spring?

And last of all "Big Mac" the Royal Palm who wasn't cooperating well for pics.
I have four 7 week old serama chicks. I KNOW 1 is a cockerel, and I am very much hoping the others are pullets. After my last hatch of ALL roos, I want opinions!

I have 2 EE "girls" that have only ever been with each other since they were fluffy butts. It took 8 1/2 months to get my first egg from one of my ladies. This egg below is her third egg and I suspect from the bullseye I think I saw last time, I shouldn't expect 2 eggs from that pen anytime...
I have my first... well second? broody hen!!! One of my polish girls went broody last night so I got some fertile EE eggs and when I went to give them to her, my delaware pullet had stolen the nest! I don't know if the polish has given up on the idea already,I put the infertile eggs she started...
So yesterday evening at dusk I did my end of the day rounds gathering late payed eggs and making sure everyone was accounted for an in their place when I looked over the last coop. Everything seemed in order and that's when my husband came up behind and gave an exclamation of shock. "What's that...
I traded some keets for 2 slate blue Turkey eggs and they hatched yesterday but one of these is not like the other? What is he? I am a first time poultry owner.
A little background on these eggs is necessary. I ordered some Polish a few months ago from a very nice last-minute my first shipped eggs. It turned out her roo was not doing his duty. Out of 18 eggs 5 developed. 1 hatched. 1 that didn't had scissor beak. I blamed the poor hatch on my...
