    Death in One Day

    Yesterday, I let my 7 birds out of the coop for some free range time. I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary. They all came running out and followed me around the yard for a while before going about their business. About 2 hours after dark, I went to the coop to lock up for the night...

    White Rock or CornishX

    I was wondering if there is a way to tell the difference early on. I got 3 of these as White Rocks, but they have grown so much faster then the rest of the other breeds I have.
