I have one Silver Laced Wyandotte rooster and one White Silkie rooster I need re-homed. I have too many roosters. I am located in Forest Hill, WV (south-eastern part of state). If you are interested, please send me a pm. Thanks

Can anyone tell me what breed AND gender these two are? I was thinking Cochin (they are bantams) and was thinking they were hens, but I found one of them fighting a bantam roo (will have to post a pic of him tomorrow...don't know what he is either..but he's crowing, so I KNOW he's a roo..lol) so...
It seems my Buff Orpington Roo (henceforth known as "Nosy") and a mockingbird (henceforth known as "Motor mouth") have a contest going......to see which one can wake me up first.
It started 2 mornings ago....For some reason Nosy's crow woke me...soon after, Motor Mouth started his repertoire...
On this day many moons ago (my lips are sealed as to actually how MANY moons ago.... ) our dear Queen Em was born. And now our dear Queen is missing from her kingdom.....HOW can we have a HUGE, GINORMOUS birthday bash without her????
Dear Queen Em, wherever you are, may you have a great...

I think his neighbor needs to be made to go work in a chicken house to see how the poor chickens never touch the ground. Maybe he would learn a thing or two about where his eggs come from and quit...
Our 6 Silkies and 2 SLW's have been in the transitional coop and pen for 4 days now. They learned (finally) to go into their coop at dusk yesterday. This evening, DD and I were sitting out at the pen watching them (yeah, you might be a redneck if you sit at your pen watching the chickens for...
Baby is a tiny bantam chick I got yesterday at TSC ( I know I know..I shouldn't have gotten them there but they were so darn cute!!!) and she/he is not showing any interest in eating or drinking. She still has her egg tooth, and wants to snuggle up with the others. She does her best to get under...
I bought my 9 year old DD a Starter Bow and Arrow Combination kit. She wants to join the Archery team next year when she goes to middle school. So I thought (those that know me know how dangerous THAT is!!! ) why not go ahead and buy her a combination set now and it will help build some muscles...
I went out to the coop to remove some of the bedding and just do some general cleaning to the coop and run and wouldn't you know it....I wasn't out there 5 minutes and had a bunch of supervisors.
Henny Penny and Pretty Girl checking out what I've done.
Momma checking the floor..I guess it...
I hope this loads ok...I found this on some website...can't think of the name, I posted it on my FB wall, but I thought I'd post it here too.
Not sayin you're crazy or anything......
This is Pretty Girl...she is not looking very pretty right now...I went out yesterday to clean the coop, put some pine shavings down, you know, general cleaning and maintenance on the coop, and she looked like this. I had not been able to get out to the coop for 2 days due to having to help my...
My DD and I went out to feed the chickens some warm oatmeal and collect the eggs....I reached into the coop and put my hand in the nest (I could not see in the nest with the way I was standing) expecting to feel eggs....I got a handful of feathers instead!!! At the same time I felt the feathers...
I have a quick question about candling the eggs but first I'll give you a little background.
My DIL decided she wanted to try to hatch some of my eggs while she is living here with my grandbabies..She got a tote, some rags and old towels, 2 styrofoam cups with water, a thermometer (like you...
I have a rooster and 4 hens. They will not use their roosting poles at all! I even went out at night and put the hens on the poles. They each got off the pole and went back to the end of the coop where they had been laying. I have done this at least 10 times and they still will not use the...
I know I'm old but I have to say, I heard this song on Top 20 on 20 yesterday morning coming home from work and it seems JB is growing into his voice. I cannot believe I am saying this but I actually like this song. (That's it, that's the sign...the world is coming to an end) Watched the video...
Was sitting at my parents house a little while ago. Told mom, "well, guess I'd better walk back home and get started on the Great Egg Hunt." Mom rolled her eyes and told me I spent too much time on the computer. Well, I was confused...I asked her what did opening the chicken coop and looking for...
I came home from work this morning and took the chickies a watermelon rind my parents gave me. I also took my chair into the pen as Momma and Pretty Girl like to hop on my lap and lay down. I was sitting there watching them eat the watermelon and just started looking around to see if I needed to...
I work in a factory. The rule for reporting off work is you MUST call in 2 hours ahead of your shift to report you will not be there. I have been written up 2 times in the past year for calling in less than 2 hours due to legit medical reasons. Not to go into detail, but I have been having some...
I was at work on Saturday, talking to a co worker about my chickens. I told her my sister had said, when I got my chicks, "How are you gonna get eggs with no rooster?" My co worker looked at me and said "You can't get eggs unless you have a rooster!" I told her yes, you can. A rooster is only...
Didn't know where else to post these. Bunnylady, here are pics of the bunnies I was telling you about and their hutch:
I don't know if you can tell or not, but their hair is matted too.
