    I know it’s a little warlyGender guess?

    So I know it’s really early on as these guys are just about two weeks old, but I’m fairly certain I have three little cockerels on my hands. All three are pretty sassy, the first two love to poof up and come at my hand when I stick it in the brooder, they both also are very nippy :lol:. Combs...

I had three green eggs resulting in 3 Buff-colored chicks (one is chipmunk I believe). Two of them have pea combs and one has a...

    My new babies & guesses on egg color!?

    Hey all! So I decided to incubate some eggs from my flock - all of them bred from a white leghorn roo. Four of the eggs were from my EE hen (she lays mint colored eggs). And two were from my Sapphire Gem hen. I ended up hatching 5 out of the 6 earlier this week. All of the babies are white, some...

    Hey all! I recently purchased a Nurture Right 360 from my local TSC. After buying it and already firing it up, I realized I bought the “older” model without the design flaws fixed - a smaller fan cover and a cover for the digital readout. I’m trying to find contact information for the...

They were all labeled as pullets. They’re around 3 weeks old now, and I’m suspecting one is a little cockerel. I’ll post a...

    Rooster hanging out in nesting box?

    I have a 6 month-old Leghorn Rooster that has been hanging out on and off in one of my girls’ favorite nesting boxes. This morning I walked out and he was sitting on 2 eggs. Can roosters be broody? Is this a thing? lol None of my hens are broody at all. Is there something else I should be...

    Is it okay to feed 2 1/2 month old feed?

    Okay, so a couple of months ago I accidentally bought Layer feed and didn’t realize it until I got home. Instead of taking it back, I figured I’d just save it until my girls were ready to start laying, which I thought was going to be sooner than later. They’re all laying now, minus my sapphire...

I was given 10 White Leghorn chicks that were hatched at the school in June 2018! I ended up with 3 Roos. In August I decided...
