    Any ideas on this Rooster?

    He was sold to me with 3 others as Americanas/EE mixes but once they feathered out I realized that they most likely aren't that. He's a year old, I had 2 others that turned out to be roosters and I gave those away to a friend. I kept him cause I don't have any in his colors. Any ideas on what...

    3 month old BO/RiR mix gender?

    I'm having a hard time telling the gender of this one. Father is buff orpington and mother is Rhode Island red, normally it's easier but this one has me confused. No crowing yet but I don't think it's old enough to anyway. Thanks!

    I have this Americana mix that was injured in a fight between a bit bigger but same age hen. Now her jaw acts broken. It makes a crunchy sound and it's out of alignment as well as bleeding at the tip of the top beak. What can I do for her? Will she be able to eat and live like this or do I have...

    Cotton Patch Male acting like female chicken hen???

    I have 2 geese, pure Cotton Patch and were sexed as goslings. Now at 6 months of age my "male" has been cornering me and then squatting, wings out head bowed and tail up, reminds me of my hens. Does this mean he is a she? I'll add pic of them together. He's closer.

    Unique chick?

    Edit: My husband just informed me that one of the RiR isn't a pure, she's a mix with Sapphire Splash from the last batch we had. I thought we had sold them all but he got attached to her. She just looks RiR so maybe she's the Mom? I have a mixed group of pure breeds. One Buff Orpington Rooster...

    Gender??

    I got these awhile ago for free. My friend thinks they're all male. The breeds are a mixture so not sure how to tell. As of right now I'm not sure the ages either but I haven't heard any crowing yet.

    Duck eggs hatched but didn't absorb yolk

    Non assisted hatching but all 3 didn't absorb their yolks. I put them in cups but it's been hours and it doesn't look like they're getting any less yolky. Temp was 95 and the humidity hit 99 at the highest at one point. I didn't add any more water as they were on lockdown with no touching from...

    New rooster and mating behavior

    I have a Silkie roo that I've put in with my EE hens. He seems to be happy but he has the hardest time mating. They're just a tiny too tall for him.
