    Rooster feed

    I've switched all my girls over to Layer Crumbles. Is it okay that my Rooster eats this as well? This is their only feed, other than treats and what they find while free ranging.

    Skinny chicken.

    I've got 3 Isa Browns, they are all laying at this point. I believe the one in question isn't as consistent as the other two, Shadow. She just doesn't seems as wide as the other girls. My other two are nice and fluffy, wide, and Blondie produces the largest eggs of the three. Shadow, the one I'm...

    Egglaying Help!

    Our Isa Brown Shadow started laying Monday of this week. Her first two eggs were great! We have yet to crack them open thought. Anyhow, yesterday and today she has been laying these "rubber" type eggs that are busted open when we got to check for eggs. I added oyster shells into their coop and...

Now comes the tricky part. I've been quite dreading this part because it is of thee unknown to me. How do we get...

    Escaping Rooster

    My Rooster is an escape artist. We don't know how he is getting out of the run but I'm pretty sure he is flying out. He goes after any bird that flys in or around the run. The coop itself is covered but the run surrounding it is not. Almost every other day I come home after work and he is just...

    May be sick, may be nothing at all.

    My Isa Brown is about 15 weeks old She has been acting kind of weird the last couple of days. She is normally the most social and active hen on the flock, she comes running when I walk up to their run/coop area. But she has been keeping to herself and sleeping a lot. She's the first to go to...

    Hen or Rooster?!

    We bought her/him with the understanding she was an Amerecauna Pullet. I know she/he is most likely and EE but we are thinking it is more likely too that she is a he. Is this a Rooster?!

    Crowing hen/Rooster

    We have 6 chickens around 10 weeks old. This particular one starting crowing a few days ago. I didn't believe it until I ears it for myself this morning. It's a sad cockadoodledoo so I'm not fully convinced she could be a rooster. She is the most dominant of the bunch, and getting to be the...

    Not sure what to call this..

    We are not sure what going on with this chick. She's about 12 weeks old and is the smallest of our flock. We've got 3 Isa Browns who are about 13-14 weeks old, and 3 Ameracaunas or EEs that are 11-12 weeks old. The EE pictured here is the smallest. The other two are about the size of the Isa...

    What could this be?

    Our chick Henny Penny is about 12 weeks old and she is the smallest of the bunch. She hardly has any fetters other than the ones on her wings. Do you think she is getting pecked to pieces? Or she just is having a longer time growing in her feathers. Should we separate her until her feathers grow...

    How old could she be?

    We've had this chick going on 6 weeks now and these are all the feathers she has to show forth. She is now outside in the coop with everyone else and that's that. She's adapting great and doesn't seem cold. Lows at night are only getting into the high 60s and it's about 80s-90s during the day.

    Coop living

    Today we moved our chickens out to their coop. We are a little worried they will not go into the roost tonight. Will they be okay if the don't? What should we do if they don't get it?

    Moving out!

    It's coming close to that time where our oldest birds are feathered and ready for the outside world. My babies have grown up so so fast! We have one chicken in particular that hasn't gotten ANY feathers. She is eating, drinking, and pooping fine. But she literally has no feathers. She is younger...

    No feathers

    My EEs/Ameracaunas, I have 3, one isn't getting any feathers. She has feathers on the very top of her wings but that is it. If I had to guess I'd say she may be 3weeks ish old. I will have had her 3 weeks this coming up Sunday.

    Where are those feathers?!

    So I'm not sure if I've got a problem yet.. I've got 6 chicks, and I'm a new Chick momma. I have 3 Isa Browns that are doing great and 3 Ameracaunas. Two of the three Ameracaunas are feather right on schedule but the last one, Henny Penny, she's just not sprouting! She's eating, drinking...
