    Anybody have any Cream Legbar rooster pics from Hoover’s Hatchery?

    I have this guy. He was supposed to be a cream legbar pullet last year, but ended up being a rooster. Hoover’s Hatchery wasn’t a very good place to get chicks from anyway, but they’ve even declined more this year. It’s almost like they free range their chickens and you can only hope to get...

    Cause of death?

    I had a hen that just recently hatched chicks. She quit moving around as much, and even smashed 2 of them. We took the last 3 out and put them in a brooder, and the next morning she was lame and quickly disintegrating. I gave her nutra drench and water, she wouldn’t eat. She died sometime last...

    Coughing and crackling after Fenbendazole

    My chickens had worms in their poop, so I treated 3 days with Fenbendazole. Treatment ended yesterday, and now they are coughing, crackling, and sneezing. Is this from possible worms in the lung that died, and they are expelling them?

    New Broody

    We have been hatching eggs with our incubator, and have loved it! But now we have a broody hen, and I’d love to see her be successful. She’s been sitting for 6 days now, only to come out once for maybe 15 minutes, sometimes an hour. My question is whether to move her or not. We have a huge...

    Dented egg day 17

    I was doing my last turn over before lockdown, and dented one of the eggs pretty good. Nothing is leaking out. Should I leave it in there? I feel awful

    Houdan or Silkie mix?

    The school hatched eggs and I have no way of getting in touch with the farmer. One of my chicks looks like a Satin. Black skin, 5 toes, etc. I can’t decide if this is a silkie mix, or a Houdan. What are your guesses? A little over 2 weeks old

    New to hatching eggs

    I’m experienced with chickens, but I’m hatching my first batch of eggs ever. Last night was day 7, and a couple of the chicks don’t seem to be moving anymore. Both are from my Easter Egger. The other mixes are still moving. One of the Easter Egger eggs looked like it may have the blood ring...

    What do I have??

    So these chicks were in Hoovers hatchery “hatchery choice rare” bin. They both resembled dark Brahma chick, but their feathers resemble a Wyandotte. I have no idea what these are. Hoovers hatchery doesn’t sell any kind of Brahma or Cochin with silver or gold laced feathers.

    I’ve had silver EE pullets, and they looked like this except they had even wing patterns. Would everyone agree that this one is a cockerel?

    Brahma color question

    I have a couple Brahma chicks from the hatchery choice bin. I kind of thought I grabbed 2 dark Brahma’s, until I put them side by side. Anyone with Brahma’s know what color the more yellow one is?

    Has anyone seen a Prairie Bluebell look like this?

    I bought this chick at the feed store. I have several Prairie Bluebells, but I’ve never seen one like this, it looks like a California White to me. The whole bin looked like this. I know Prairie Bluebells can come in any color, but I’ve not ever seen any that look like this, and wondered if...

    What breed?

    My friend and I bought chicks on February 10, 2023. Some were in miscellaneous bins. We don’t know what this one is, or the gender. The comb is still light and small with it being about 7 weeks, maybe 8. It has rust on its wings, but doesn’t look like the melanistic red that roosters have. The...

    Starlight Green Egger gender?

    I have either a Starlkght Green Egger, or a Prairie Bluebell. They were all in the same bin. I’ve had birds in the past that had really red wattles and combs, that turned out to be hens. But the blotchy coloring on this one makes me wonder if it’s a cockerel. Anyone have experience with the...

    Cream Legbar male or female?

    This is Cream Puff, my new cream legbar. The store said it was a female, but after looking online, it kind of looks like a male? Could Cream Puff be a Cannoli instead??
