Hello,
I have a hen that was MIA. We found her proudly sitting on a clutch of 20+ eggs in my basement window well. She had been sitting for quite a few days when we found her but we have now experienced a massive temperature swing. 16c to -2c and she still insists that she’s hatching the eggs...
I was given 5 hens- the man who gave them to me has no idea why breed they are. They lay large size medium brown eggs and dark green/olive eggs. They have a green tint to their feathers in the light. Any guesses?
Hi!
I’m new to hatching and I have spent tons of time incubating culminating in now having 35 chicks of varying ages. This is what was in my coop:
-white crested blue polish hen
-5 unknown black hens
- 1 lavender Orpington hen
- 2 silver laced black polish hens
- 1 white showgirl frizzle...
Hey!
I’m still newish to chickens and got some showgirl chicks this year. I’m dying to know who is a she and who is a he! The two larger chicks are older than the 3 littles. The 3 littles are likely still too small to tell but maybe my older ones? Any guesses?
Hey!
flow:
(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
I got my first chickens last year! I’m on my second batch of chicks now!
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
8 chicks
4 Roos
8 hens
We also have a mixed breed flock of ducks!
(3) What breeds do you have...
