I got this puller from a co-worker who told me she ordered red barred rocks. I can't find anything on this breed. She looks more like a wyandotte but I can't tell. Any help?
It hasn't started crowing yet but I have an older Cockeral who is the alpha so that may be why. Not really sure about the age, should be around 15-18 weeks.
I am trying one of these heating pads between two pieces of plywood with their drinking water on it and a gallon jug closed for radiant heat. THe thing doesn't get very warm and will only raise the ambient temp 10-20 f at the most. It is as cold as it should get around here right now in the high...
I need some help. My wife went out to the coop today and found 4 eggs. She had checked the last 3 days and nothing then she found 4. One of them she said was burried in the egg box so it could have been layed the day before. We have 1 Barred Rock who I know is laying. We also have an Ameraucana...
Anyone seen this in SLW's? WE just rescued a couple of little girls today and were told one was a Buff Orp. and the other is a SLW. Now she for the most part looks like a SLW pullet however the pattern on her breast is backwards. With black feathers and white lace instead of White with black...
Well after about a month of building, a lot of blood, sweat, tears and one corner of a finger tip it's finally complete-ish. A few minor details and I'll be happy. The entire thing is 6.5'X 11' and 8' tall. It is built within a dog kennel that came with the house and has a concrete floor with a...
We bought 5 chicks this summer but one of them turned out to be a cockeral. Currently (we believe) we have a Barred rock, Ameraucana, Polish and a Houdan. we were thinking about getting a couple of SLW yr old hens from a local hatchery. Our roo is a SLW as well so we thought we could breed some...
Hello there from Oregon. We have a 6.5x 11' coop with built in henhouse on the second story. An almost finished coop I should say, still needs rainproofing. We have 5 chicks that are about 7 weeks old. WE have a PBR, SLW (probable roo), White Crested Black Polish, Mottled Houdan and an...

Our pretty girl here is...
Here is my 9wk old wyndotte and guesses as to what sex SHE is? She is always chasing the other 4 pulletts and jumping on them.
She has a single comb but read that was a normal variance. They were 90% that the chicks we bought were all pulletts.
I have 5, five week old chicks (or are they pullets?) and I just put them outside today. Highs will be in the 90's and lows around 60f. I have a heat lamp in the hen house keeping it around 75ish in the periphery. There are two 10"X10" open metal clothed windows near the top of the henhouse to...
