    Hot weather broody question

    Shrink wrapped?!

    Pet turkey questions

    Flock won’t go in the coop at night

    I have a small bantam flock of pullets that have decided to no longer go in the coop at night. They have a 12x14 8 ft tall run and a 4x8 coop for reference. In the summer I started leaving the coop door open for more airflow even though there are open windows and plenty of ventilation. They...

    Bantam RIR sexing

    I think they are RIR, got them in the bantam bin at TSC. I think they are pullets as I’ve already rehomed their brother that was clearly a cockerel 3 weeks ago. The only thing that’s throwing me off is their little tail feather curls, they both have them. there are 2 chicks and they are approx...

    I posted over a week ago I believe and a few people commented that this looked like a roo which I thought so as well only his hatch mates had waddles and a red face weeks ago when I rehomed them. “He” looks like a he but no redness or waddles. I have an opportunity to rehome him this weekend...

    Bantam Roos?

    I have a what I’m assuming is a Cochin from TSC, a buff brama from A local breeder and a d’uccle from a local breeder that I’d like your opinion on! I think the Cochin is definitely a roo but the other two I’m not sure. Cochin is about 8-9weeks old and the other two are roughly a month older...

    Bantam polish roo?

    This is my 8 week old bantam polish that I thought was a pullet but the waddles growing are saying otherwise. I’ve had many polish in the past and by the look of her head feathers it looks pullet to me. So I’m confused....any thoughts?

    Bad bantam breeder continues....haha!

    Since you guys were so helpful and nice I thought I’d show you my last two questionables. I think they are Cochins, one frizzled. I’m sure they are boys but want a second opinion. Don’t some breeds have come development at this age even if a pullet? This is why I get so confused! Many thanks...
