Good day everyone
I got this lil dude yesterday as a replacement male for my hen, it's my first time getting brahma chick direct from the hatchery instead of a breeder as I usually do, he's obviously a male and I believed he was buff until I got a good look at him today, he's more of red than...
These are my indigenous birds of a month+ and I'm lost as to what gender they are, I got them thinking they where female but now I'm lost
i'd be sad if they where boys
What do you-all think?
So these breed are wild chickens that have been tamed and domesticated over time over here in Nigeria with the original blood being bantam sized but now varies to standard size due to cross breeding they, vary in different colouration and patterns
The below photo is of a mum and her kids of...
This is tresha my little princess she's a brahma and I first got her thinking she was buff variety but then she surprised me when she started developing the partridge patterns but a lighter version, could she a buff partridge? Or does anyone knows🙏
This is flash my indigenous chicken he/she is around 4months+ and I can't tell it's gender, it's pretty chaty and spars a lot with the other indigenous chicken, but very little comb and wattle with no saddle feathers but the feathers coming in on the hackles and tail are suspicious that it could...
Just got into brahma keeping and a client of mine gave me the contact of his client and these are choices for me to get a breeding pair of 1month old brahma's and out of all the varieties I see online the dark brahma is my favorite followed by buff and with the knowledge I have gathered so far I...
Good day everyone I got this brahma chick from a friend who's a breeder and believe he's a he due to his stance but I could be wrong, my main question is what breed of brahma is he cus the breeder said he's buff and I was wondering how two non buff parents could birth a buff
This is one of two birds gotten of recent and the seller says it's pullet but after spending 2days I'm starting to have double mind of it being a cockerel due to its size, laid back nature and the brown leakage on its shoulders and hackles
Please help me I've lost 4 bird's in the span of 5days and 4 more are in critical condition, at this rate I'm worried I'd lose my entire flock in less than 2 weeks, I have a flock of a rooster, 5 hens, 1 cockerel, 3 juvenile cockerel and their 4 sister's
it all started few days ago my dad...
Hello everyone I got a roo two days back and was wondering what you-all think he could be, he has only know my hens for 2 days but now rushes me when ever I pick them up though haven't struck me YET he totally avoids handling and is just so pretty
Good day everyone
I know the platform is for poultry but I had to bring this here cus I had no where else ask and I figured a lot of us here would have barn/house cats
A friend of mine asked that I helped him pick up a kitten he ordered for his small scale brahma farm but when I picked the...
Just returned home after 2weeks+ and noticed one of my 11 chicks hatched has what seems to be pasty butt, though I had used a warm towel to wipe off the poo residue but the anal hole wasn't blocked to begin with just abnormally swollen
And yes I noticed when he poos he squats and then gets up...
Alright guy so I've been in a breeding plan of what I believe are game birds since I got this little guy like around 4years back
He grew to a very beautiful red roo
Which I later had to sadly get rid of cus he was aggressive, the week I got rid of him I visited the man I bought him from to...
This is Stella
She's 7 month old and yet to lay, she exhibits roo like behavior that has me concerned
She's above the rank of one of my cockerels who's 7weeks younger than she is and when ever he mounts her she gets pissed and does the rooster dance at him before he runs off yes the rooster...
Hello everyone this is courage and he's around 5-6 month old and probably a mix cus can't seem to figure what breed he is, but there is one thing I noticed about him
He has yellow legs and has kind of a Rhode island red colouring to him that is asides the black on his chest
So I was wondering...
These girls would be 7months in a couple days can anyone figure what breed they are
The first I suspect to be a production red but not sure about the recent developing black feathers
The second is real racking cus i had one like her previously and even a friend of mine has a roo like her...
Hello everyone
One of my boys not looking too good and I can't figure out what exactly the problem could be, he's very lean with little to no pale comb and wattle
He is an Isa brown around 5months old, he eats fine..poo's fine and even mounts the girls occasionally though he's the lowest...
These guys are 2 out of 5 siblings from a half frizzle dad, which means he's frizzle didn't curl all the way to 100%
But at first these guys looked half frizzled like their dad but now with them developing more feathers they're starting to look normal but their tail and wing feathers remain...
Hello everyone it's been a while
I got these little guys yesterday and I'm not sure of their breeds they are 2momths, and what I know about their parents is the dad is frizzle, look alike with his son in the 4th photo while the mum is exactly the same as the pullet in the last photo
These guys...

The second one I'm 75% sure she's a she then the last one looks like a mystery
Never seen a white chicken with blue legs, I also suspect him to be a...
