    What age can you move baby chicks out into your flock of full grown hens?

They're fully feathered but much too small to take the pecking order as of right now. They can stand the weather right now though. My question is at what age do you think they're big...

    23 week old buff Orpington extremely noisy

    I have a 23 week old buff Orpington that gets extremely loud in the morning lately. She wasn't always so loud and chatty in the morning. She has not started laying eggs yet either. I'm wondering if she's getting so chatty because she's about to start laying or if this behavior is because of...

    What's a good argument on why my county should allow us to keep backyard chickens?

    My county is setting up a zoning ordinance change and they are having hearings to hear from people why or why not our county should allow hens. I want to speak at one of the hearings but I'm not too well versed on chickens so I'd like some input from others on good arguments on why they should...

    What type of chicken is this? And is it a rooster?

    I have no idea what type of chicken this is. It came with my Easter eggers but it looks nothing like my others. I'm also thinking it might be a rooster. It's about 8 weeks old. It's not crowing but it is fighting with my Easter egger rooster

    Chickens not roosting in coop

    What kind of chicken is this? Male or female?

    I bought this chick under the assumption it was an ameraucana which I now know it's not. Also I thought it was a pullet but now I'm thinking cockerel since it's getting a very pink comb and it's only about 7 weeks old.

    Lethargic week old chick with head tilted. What is wrong?

    Two days ago I found one of my new chicks lying at the bottom of its brooder not moving while other chicks trampled it. I picked it up and put it in its own separate box under a heat lamp with food and water. As I was preparing its box I noticed it wouldn't stand up and kept falling over. It did...

    If my chick is extremely aggressive does that mean its a cock?

    So I'm new to this whole chicken thing. I have 2 week old quails and decided to start a flock of chickens as well so I put my chicks into the brooder with my quail. This of course was ignorant on my part. I had no idea that chickens could give my quail any diseases. The man I bought my quail...
