    Dry/Pale Comb - 6 Month Old Olive Egger

    Hello wonderful chicken experts! I’m wondering if someone might be able to either reassure me everything is fine, or tell me I’m a horrible chicken mom for letting this go on for so long… We have two ~6 month old pullets who have this same pea comb.

    Olive Egger Rooster - Dayton Ohio

    Unfortunately, our Olive Egger cockerel is being too aggressive toward the ladies. We have a very small flock (5), and I just don’t have the capacity to keep him out and maintain separate living quarters to ease the pullets. He isn’t overly aggressive toward me, and enjoys treats, but he has...

    6-Week Old Olive Eggers —Pullets?

    First time chicken mom and I’m hoping we have all pullets. We can’t have any roosters here, unfortunately. The two that appear to have Leghorn in them have been exhibiting more and more cockerel-type behaviors, but I’m on the fence about their wattles and combs. Any thoughts?
