    Red marks and feather loss…no sign of pests

    I have 16 chickens and 2 ducks in my coop. One of the girls is missing feathers around her vent and has red marks in the bald areas, but it is not the entire area that is red. They almost look like scratch marks. None of the other birds have anything like this. I have 3 silkie roosters but only...

    When Roosters Attack..

    Relatively new chicken mom here. I have 3 silkie roosters that I hatched who are now 18 weeks old. I moved the boys and my 14 pullets who are 12 week old (all bigger than the silkies) out into our big coop and run about 10 days ago. Up until that point they were separated, but could see each...

    Rooster Crowing…should I be concerned??

    I have a 12 week old BCM rooster that I hatched in April. He is 1 of 6 I hatched, 4 of which I think are roosters. I know it’s too many roosters and am figuring out who to keep still. My BCM is definitely the largest, has been crowing for several weeks and is the only one to crow, so I know he...

    Think I know the answer but…

    Is this a roo? 12 weeks old. My other 12 week old has been crowing for weeks. This guy hasn’t made a peep. He is very affectionate so far. Not sure what breed since it is an “olive egger” I hatched from mail order eggs.

    Silkie (3/4) x Brabanter (1/4) 12 week old

    Any thoughts on sexing my 3 month old silkie x brabanter cross? It was an accidental egg that got sent with an order of pure silkies. She (I’m hopeful) is the friendliest of friendly, falls asleep in my lap! Anyone else with a similar mix?

    Silkie Comb

    Tried to get better pictures of my 7 week old silkies. I know one is a roo but was hoping other was a hen but not so sure, it’s looking different today.

    First time chicken mom here...please help with breeds and gender!

    So I just hatched my first group of chickens early April and am having so much fun with them. I have 3 silkies that are 7 weeks (supposed to be but one has regular feathers) and 3 others that are 6 weeks (one olive egger, one frizzled something, and a black copper maran). It’s looking like I may...
