We have been having an issue with a raccoon and this chicken was lucky enough to escape but the raccoon did get his tailfeathers. This was about 4-6 weeks ago. Now the chicken seems to be loosing feathers on her wings. Any idea what is wrong?
I have 14 chickens ages 5 months-2 years old. How can I tell the difference between a rooster and a hen? We are afraid we may have a few roosters and we know we should only have 1 for this amount of hens.
(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
My family just got our first chickens this past April.
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
14
(3) What breeds do you have?
White Leghorn, White Leghorn Hybrid, Barred Rock, Road Island, Buff Orington, not sure on my others...
