So, we have 15 hens and one rooster. Lately the rooster has been mean to some of the hens, this morning he chased the polish, pecking at her then cornered her which is when I caught him.... they will be 16 weeks old on Monday. Any ideas to why he is being mean? He has always been so sweet.
She is 14 1/2 weeks old. She just started tucking her head into her chest. Also the front is bigger than usual. She is drinking and eating a little. Any info on this is greatly appreciated, thanks!!
Thank you to everyone who comments and helps in my mystery. I am exhausted at trying to look though books.
She/he is 7 1/2 weeks old and more greyish blue in natural light.
Please help, I just checked on my 5 week old chicks and found this poop!! There are 16 hens so not sure which one it is. All of them were up and active. I had to leave for work, I'm so worried. What could this be??
And this one!!
Hello , I am a new chicken enthusiast! I never thought I would enjoy having chickens, it's only been 2 weeks. My ladies were hatched on 6/12 and have been a blast watching. Hope to learn a lot here to spoil our new flock!!
