    3 chickens same symptoms, 2 died.

    Image attached so when I refer to who was living where and then how they were allowed to mingle you'll have a visual. I'll try to answer any of the usual questions I see asked most when trying to help people figure out what was wrong. My older layers (all hatched 1/17) live in the big "dog...

    Numbering system for breeding records

    Would anyone mind sharing examples of their number system for keeping track of breeders and generations? I see F1, F2, etc...mentioned here and there and I'm just trying to figure out what that means. Hopefully I'm posting this in the right place. Thanks in advance. :)

    Brahma Mama or Roo?

    So my Brahma is approximately 10-12 weeks old. Didn't know age 100% when I got it as a chick. The other chicks have picked on his/her back feathers right near the tail, because it turns out most all of my Ameraucanas are roos. LOL! But what do you sweet peeps think, do I have a pullet or roo...

    Ameraucana gender help?
