    Barred Rock? Dominique? California Gray? Something else? lol :)

    I just got this hen, not sure of her age, at least a year old I was told. She thought she was a Barred Rock, but she doesn't look like one to me? Or is she? She just seems small for a Barred Rock? Is there a difference between barred abd "cuckoo" patterns, by the way? Any ideas...

    Is she/he a light Brahma, or something else?

    The guy who sold this one to me today said it's a "big stock" chicken. He doesn't know what breed it is, and thinks it's mother may have been a "New Hampshire". I know they had "Silkacaunas", which they said are Silkie X Araucana hybrid I guess.. As well as Silkies, Phoenix and they said they...

    New to this: 9th day - what should I see when candling?

    This is my first time hatching. I have 2 dozen EE eggs (light green and oliver eggs), and 3 eggs from my hens. The hens are White Rocks and a Delaware, and the roosters are a little Old English Game Bantam and one of two Silkies. So far, i'm think the 3 eggs from my hens aren't going to be a...

    Are these Easter Eggers pullets or little roos?

    This is a Bantam Easter Egger (approx 8 weeks) - does he/she look more like a lil roo or a pullet? A standard Easter Egger (10-12 weeks old or so?) and the bantam.. Roos or pullets? Another angle of the two.. lol

    I got this chick yesterday, not sure of the breed. The guy had a lot of different breeds of chickens, he/she could be a mix....which is my guess! lol Any idea what breed(s) this bird could be? Does it look like a cockerel or a pullet to you? His/her leg color, if it helps! lol All of his...

    If it is Coccidosis, will the amprolium in medicated feed work?

    Ok, first.. I'm not sure that my chicks have Coccidosis. I'll get back to that it a second.. My question is.. If they DO have Cocci, would starting them back on a medicated feed treat it? The medicated feed contains amprolium (Corid).. Or is it not strong enough? I can't find Corid OR Sulmet...

    Is this diarrhea or normal?? Not Cocci, right? (*Photo update)

    Dark maroon/brown color droppings... Is this considered bloody diarrhea? I have given them some medicated feed since I have had them, and some non medicated. If I switch back to medicated only, will that help or is it too late? Thanks in advance. (Feels like giving up on raising chickens)...

    New goat (photos) Wormy? What's the best wormer? Also, breed guesses?

    I brought home a goat this past week, and she's a real sweetheart. But, I think she may have worms. She is huge in the tummy, and thin elsewhere. (spine, etc) These pics were taken the first day I brought her home, her tummy doesn't seem quite as bad now, but still... A little info I know...

    Speckled White Plymouth Rock?

    One of my "White Rock" hens has black speckles. I was told they are all White Rocks, but i'm pretty sure she is a cross, right? lol I don't think White Rocks can have dark markings? Wonder what she could be crossed with?
