I was gone for a week on vacation and left my dad to watch my chickens, they seemed to be doing fine. Today’s the first day I got to see them and I noticed something around my roosters ears. These two live together and are separated from the other chickens. I don’t know what it is/what could...
So a little while ago I lost one of my hens to waterbelly, she was my first ever chicken :(. I decided I wanted to add a few more hens to the flock because I was down to 2 roosters (father and son duo) and 2 hens now. I was able to get 1 hen and ended up with 4 older chicks that should be girls...
Posting again for opinions. I think the little black one is a boy but I thought for awhile the orange would be a girl until just recently and am having second thoughts… they’re both 42 days old.
I lost a hen for the first time a few weeks ago and was pretty upset about it so I put the last 4 of her eggs into the incubator, two didn’t make it so I was left with two chicks. I thought it would be a little while before I could tell genders but I think this little chick attempted a crow. I’m...

The first is 38...
So I’m new to raising chickens and have gone through many ups and downs as I took care of my chicks. They’re 22 weeks old now and this morning I found my 2 first eggs. I was shocked at first but I was filled with so much pride with my little Pui Pui. She doesn’t seem too interested in sitting on...
So I was able to hatch a few bantam eggs back in January and now that they’re three and a half months old I’ve heard at least one crowing on a few occasions but I’m not sure which. I think two of them are baby Roos and one is a hen but I was hoping for others opinions before I make any decisions...
