    How old might my peacock be?

    Hi all. We took in an abandoned pair of peafowl last week and think they’re quite young, but aren’t really sure. We’re anxiously awaiting next spring to see how many eggs the hen may lay, but as for the peacock, he appears to only have a single eyespot on each side. If I had to guess, I’d say...

    What do I have here??

    I’m trying to figure out the gender and breed(s) of this chicken. I believe (s)he is about 7 weeks old and is just now starting to turn a bit red in the face. She kind of reminds me of a Columbian Wyandotte in the neck and stature, but I have no idea what could be in her to make that brown...

    Thinking I need a dewormer?

    Hey all, I have 6 pullets between the ages of 6-10 weeks and just noticed this yellow foamy stool. I don’t think it looks like a cecal poop, and they are being fed Putin’s medicated starter/grower food. Can anyone recommend a course of treatment?

    Breeds? Sexes? Help! Lol

    Hey all, we just purchased 3 older chicks to our flock. I believe they are all around the 4-5 week mark. We purchased the red/brown one with patterned feathers hoping that he is a cockerel, and the black and buff ones might be pullets — though the slight red waddles on that black one have me...

    Advice for using broody hen as a surrogate?

    Hey y’all. We have a flock of 7 backyard hens, one of which is SUPER broody. We broke her once and she’s back at it... bare belly and all. We had wanted to expand anyway, so we’ve decided to go ahead and purchase some day old chicks and are going to let her raise them. She’s plenty defensive...

    What ever could she be?

    Hi there! We received this chicken from a breeder in PA. She was in with the Easter eggers, but was fully white as a chick and not even the breeder knew what she was. Can anyone shed some light? The feathers on top of her head just keep getting bigger and bigger, but lay flat unlike most crests...

    Hey everyone. I have 10 chicks around 4 weeks old. 6 were vaccinated at one day old for Marek’s, but the other for are from a different hatcher and were not. Should I vaccinate these four? (They were not introduced to each other until 3 weeks of age)

    Help me identify this little girl!

    Hey everyone! I’m super new to this and this may be a noob question, but we picked up a second batch of chicks yesterday (and went 4 hours to get the all-black chicken my girlfriend had her heart set on) but now that we’re home, I’m not sure that’s what we got. All of our pullets are ~3 weeks...
