    Naming things is hard

    My husband and I have finally been able to purchase land to build and have a ranch on. It's literally a dream come true for me, my grandparents had a farm and it was my favorite place to be growing up (they had to sell due to health issues years ago). We plan on raising freezer beef and pork and...

    ISO frizzled Toulbunt Polish hatching eggs or chicks

    I've been obsessed since I saw a picture. My husband ordered hatching eggs for me from a place in New Zealand. Only 4 were fertilized and out of them, only 1 hatched and it was from a green egg. I know polish lay white, so i obviously got a few EE eggs as well.

    4 week old chick suddenly having issues walking, mareks??

    I noticed this morning that she was acting a little weird, and this evening when i got home, she is almost completely unable to walk. She can't seem to keep her legs under her and i haven't found any injuries or other possible reasons. All the other chicks are behaving normally. We've never had...

    NON emergency, what killed my chicken

    Found my 10wk old light brahma dead in the coop today. She has no injuries or any obvious signs of what killed her. I'm in OK and it was actually cooler today than it has been for a week so I don't think it was the heat. The only thing that has changed is that i gave the flock half a bag of meat...

    Pullet bin at Atwoods - what breed

    I just got these cuties from the pullet bin at Atwoods and am curious if anyone has ideas on what they are. They aren't as fluffy cheeked as most EE and the starlight green eggers I've gotten there don't have fluffy cheeks at all and are lighter brown. Could they be olive eggers?? (That is what...

    Making silked EE?

    I found some silked easter eggers on my pet chicken and ordered 3 despite the price. Well, two didn't make it so I'm left with one. Because of the price I do not plan to order anymore, but was wondering what it would take to breed my own. I have 1 silkie hen, the silked ee hen (only 4wks old)...

    Need to thin flock in OK - hens and roosters

    I've come across some financial issues and need to sell most of my chickens. I have 3 roosters and 10 or more (I'm having a hard time deciding which girls to let go) hens to sell. I really need the money from them so $15/bird. Most are at least 16 weeks old but i have a few younger ones. I have...

    Does newly acquired Rooster have leg mites?

    Just picked this boy up 15min ago. I got him set up in a quarantine coop and his legs look a little funky to me. Was told he is about 3yrs old if that makes any difference.

    Useless rooster

    Will roosters normally protect their hens/chicks against cats? We have one cat specifically that can get into our run no matter what we do to keep him out. He only bothers when there are chicks for him to get. Our rooster is pretty but useless. He is an Ayam Cemani and scared of his own shadow...

    Spring molt?

    Would it be normal for a chicken to molt in spring? I have a singe hen that has a bunch of new pin feathers like she molted and now they are growing back. She isn't social which is why i hadn't noticed until now. It's mostly under her wings, vent and inside her legs. No signs of mites and all my...

    Duck pond

    Would a pond this size be big enough for 6 ducks? I know it's hard to see but it would be roughly triangle shape. And has anyone had success growing aquatic plants in one that chickens have access to?
