    Help please! Cochin pale and not laying

    Okay so I’ve done a lot of research and it seems to be that my 6-7mo old bantam Cochin is possibly eggbound. She hasn’t laid an egg in about 4 days, and the last egg she laid was colorless. Her comb and waddle are pale pink, and yesterday my husband and I saw them turn ghostly white. So much so...

    Not quite a rubber egg, but a shell-less egg

    So I’m sitting outside with my girls, I’ve already retrieved three eggs today, one from each hen. And then I go to stand up and I noticed that there’s a weird alien looking egg by my chair. I went to pick it up of course and the girls just go bonkers. Now I’m on a wild chicken chase around my...

    Just built a run!

    So, on kind of a whim, I decided to build a run for my flock. We only have 3 hens, and one is a Bantam Cochin. I bought a "large" coop (according to the manufacturer, HA!) for them and then it wasn't enough space, then I bought a 10x5x6 dog run for them and I felt like that still wasn't enough...

    Chickens eating paper!

    Hello all! I'm still new to chicken raising so I'm a bit of a helicopter mom still... So I have outdoor cameras at my house and of course I positioned one to where I can see my chickens all day (I know, I know). I just looked because my alerts were going off.. and my Barred Rocks are pecking at...

    Are yard birds predators?

    So I live in central Florida and we have tons of birds. Crows, pigeons, several types of ocean birds, probably 10 different types overall that come around? Well, today I look outside and there are birds clinging to the chicken run looking inside like they’re trying to get in! There’s food around...

    First egg!

    The person who I adopted my chicken children from said they’re all about 4 months old, that was two weeks ago. It’s safe to say they are roughly 4-5 months now. Little back story... I got two Barred Rocks (the “twins”), and then got the sister who is a bantam Cochin a week later. They grew up...

    Which breed/mix is she?

    I just got her yesterday from someone who didn’t know her breed either. She’s extremely docile, I can snuggle her up in my neck and she loves being held. She’s got feathers around her feet, she’s about half the size of my barred rocks maybe even smaller, and she’s about 4 months old.

    Getting attacked

    So I just signed up here and I’m hoping this is the right place to post this? So last Saturday I brought home our two Barred Rocks, and they have adjusted really well to their new environment. They were raised by someone who had these two, a small red mix (he didn’t know the breed) and a small...

    New here

    Hello! I'm new here but I don't really feel new because I've gleaned a lot of wisdom from this site prior to getting my chickens. My husband and I live in Saint Pete, FL and we're raising two Barred Rocks and getting a Silkie mix of some kind this weekend. I have so many questions now that I...
