Hello, so my roosters have been getting these weird spots on their combs and waddles and I have no clue what they are or from. Some of my hens have a little bit also but nowhere near like my roosters. Any ideas on what this is?
HELLO, I have a broody hen and its causing some problems. she has been broody now for 3 weeks. mainly because I cant have any more chickens right now, so I pull the eggs from her every day. One day there was 10 eggs under her! I have tried pulling the eggs and putting her in a kennel by herself...
MY 10 MONTH OLD HEN BECKY HAS GONE BROODY TWICE IN A MATTER OF MONTHS. I HAVE WANTED A CHICKEN THAT LAYS LOTS OF EGGS, IS DOCILE, AND GOES BROODY. THAT IS DEFINITLEY HER. I WISH I COULD LET HER HATCH BUT I CANT UNTIL WE MOVE IN MAY.
