    Speckled Sussex pale comb

    I’ve got a speckled Sussex pullet who is about 6 1/2 month old (I got her the last week of April when she was around a week old). She began laying very infrequently in late August with maybe an egg every 3-4 days, but she hasn’t laid for the last month and her comb looks pale and chapped. At...

    Prairie Bluebell and Starlight Green

    Just preordered 2 prairie bluebell and 2 starlight green egger pullets to be available on March 27. What can I expect from these breeds? Have a small flock of 3 Easter eggers and 2 Sapphire Gems. Thinking about building the new chicks a separate coop when they’re old enough to leave the brooder...

    What Breed/Genders are these? 9 weeks old

    New to owning chickens, was hoping someone could help me identify the type/sex of these 9 week old chickens. My kids daycare hatched eggs and we decided to take 4 of them home. Don’t know anything their breed or sex unfortunately. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
