    Blue & Black Andalusian Roos - Pasadena, CA

    I seem to have the worst luck when it comes to ordering sexed runs of chickens - this time I ended up with TWO roosters out of six chicks total! Now they need a new home ASAP. These are Blue Andalusians ordered from MyPetChicken.com and they are about 12 weeks old. One hatched black and the...

    Splayed Legs - "Gimpy" the Sicilian Buttercup

    I hatched five chicks a couple days ago and one of them has what I think is "splayed leg syndrome" but I'm not sure what to do about it. She (and I only say "she" out of hope) seems to have one normally functioning leg and one that is constantly extended and she cannot bend the "knee" or ankle...

    Mystery Hatch

    I just went to Whole Foods and bought a carton of a dozen fertile brown eggs. I am VERY tempted to throw them in the incubator and see what hatches...just one problem, Dad says "NO!" I have show quality bantams on a very small property, so large layers from a factory would not fit in well here...

    Laying in the winter?

    I just recently bought 3 hens from a poultry show and I have been told that they lay and are of the right age to lay. My friend's hens are already laying in this cold and dark weather! It's starting to get warmer though, but I haven't gotten a single egg from any of my chickens since SEPTEMBER...

    2 beautiful POLISH girls for sale!

    I hatched these myself! They are both "barnies" meaning they are not quite bantam but not quite large. I can't show them and they take up a lot of space in my bantam sized coop. They are in need of a good, loving home!

    I hatched my own chickens this year and ended up with 3 roosters. From what I know, they are pure white-crested black polish bantams (although the bantams are the same size as the standards). I need to find a breeder who will take him and love him soon! he is currently about 3 months old. his...
