    I just want to make sure of the gender of Jewel before I make any decisions. This is the last of my project bird offspring. The other one I got turned out to be a cockerel. Jewel is significantly smaller than brother.

    Is this a cockerel? Guesses on age?

    I was sold this bird as a year+ old Bantam Cochin hen. I’m pretty confident that this is a cockerel and a young one (5 months). I’m just looking for second opinions. I tried putting him with one of my girls and nothing. No trills, no mating, no little dance, nothing. Still not crowing either...

    Dusty ring around chick eye?

    I can’t tell if it is the markings of the check or if there is a white ring of dust around the eye. I can’t tell. Its thick is acting otherwise very vivacious. The last picture is of the other eye.

On the last day of treatment one of my Silkies seemed underweight so we tried electrolytes and probiotics and eventually an eyedropper with yolk mixed vitamin water. Still died 2 days later, along with one that I sold that was loosing its...

    Air Cell with Half-Circle Attached

    I have special shipped eggs that are developing normally except there is a small half-circle sized air cell connected to the air cell. I am very very worried. The eggs were fresh, but the post office shipped them upside down, then I let them “rest” in the correct position for 48 hours before I...

    Hornswaggled! Is this an Easter Egger?

    Awhile ago I bought a hen from someone and he said it was a Whiting True Blue. She is clearly not. She lays a light pink speckled egg. A few days ago I bought another hen that looks IDENTICAL in every single way, even the egg size. She lays a bright teal egg. She is an Easter Egger. Is it safe...
