    Is my cockeral a Jersey Giant?

    Hi everybody, I know this has been asked a zillion times before, but I'm wondering what everybody else thinks. I got this rooster at a swap a couple months ago, so he's about 6 months old now. I was told he was a Jersey Giant. Well, I never thought to check his feet until a few days ago and was...

    Is this normal?

    Hi Everybody! Not sure if this is the right section for this, but I got this chick, along with its 11 siblings and mama when it was a day old.

    Layena crumbles causing problems?

    Hi, recently I switched my hens to the Layena crumbles and things have since gone haywire. I have 9 hens, but only 4 are laying so far. I was feeding them Layena pellets and everything was great, I switched because I felt it would be easier for them to eat. I pretty much had 4 eggs a day (give...

    Suddenly aggressive hen

    Hi everybody, I'm not sure if I'm in the right section, but a few weeks ago my sister found 6 chickens dumped in the desert by my house and I ended up adopting them.

    Need advice on looking for common diseases and injuries!

    Hello! I'm new to this site and I just have a question! Today, my sister found some chickens roaming around in the desert next to our house while she was walking her dog. They seemed confused as if they were just dumped there. With the help of my mom and a neighbor, we chased and caught all 6...
