I'm worried about him getting frostbite. And then my baby chicks. I have two 4 week olds, a 9 week old, and a 10 week old. Then...

    Rooster Flock design ideas.

    I have a mean white leghorn rooster. I really want to separate him but my parents are educators, so the family is really busy. They aren't ready to put in the work to build a bachlore pad. But I feel if I was the one paying, and I found something I could set up pretty much by myself they might...

    Calling all Tino Fans!!!

    It has come to my attention that many of you here on BYC enjoy my rooster, Tino's nice comb and wattles. They are huge, and have been for quite some time now.

    I love chickens.

    My white leghorn hen has just started laying, and I walked into the run yesterday, checked the boxes, and said to her "go lay an egg." Sure enough she ran into the boxes, and when I was back in a few minutes, there was a tiny white egg😂 I did this again at a totally different time, and she went...

    Buff Orphington just laid her first egg... And its pink!

    My 16 week old buff Orphington just laid her first egg, it was a fairy egg, and it was pink! Is that just a pigment issue? In curious, not concerned. (I would take pics, but someone ate it and threw it away when I was gone for a minute)

    What did i just see?

    I just let my pullets back on the run with my cockerel, who is 16 weeks old, and loves trying to breed. His favorite hen is Hazel, a 16 week old buff Orphington, who loves him also, and then followed by 14 week OE Indria, who wants him dead. He grabbed Indy's neck feathers, and was trying to...

    Is my wyandotte a bantam?

    I have a SLW, and he has had me confused on gender for some time now. He Is a single comb. He seems so tiny, he is 7 weeks old, and he is only a little bigger than my 3 week olds.
