Got this dude from a friend that was unable to keep him due to city ordinance. He thought he was a barred rock but he has a lot of brown not pure white in the feathers. He also has black/pink feet. Any ideas?
Trying to help a friend figure out if her chicken has bumblefoot or if her knuckle is sprained and swollen. There was no scab like I have seen in the past when one of my birds had BF. It didn't feel fevered, but we did an Epsom soak, sprayed it with microcyn and put neosporin on it and wrapped...

Trying to figure out how many roos I have! I know for sure we have 1 (Silver Laced Wyandottes). Any help. There are 9 birds (don't know if I got all of them).
Do Black Copper Marans grow slower?? I have been raising 9 silver laced wyandottes since chicks that were born in Mid-February, and I just got 2 "Black Copper Maran" pullets that were born in January. My wyandottes look WAY bigger than these 2 new pullets (which I am quarantining). Any thoughts...
Hi! I'm a new chicken mom in North Texas! Our 10 Silver/Gold laced Wyandotte chicks are 2 weeks old and already getting big! My biggest hurdle I can foresee is my 6yo blue healer. But we are working on training. I'm excited about learning and taking care of my backyard flock!
