Hi,
I'm looking to rehome one of my 6 month old Silver Laced Wyandottes. She is healthy and laying often. The issue is that she keeps pulling feathers out from her sister, another SLW who is very submissive. She is her ONLY "victim". I tried separating her in "jail" (where the pic took place)...
Hi everyone,
My little roo decided sometimes he doesn't want me around. He started with pecking and now he's doing little flaps and ninja kicks. He used to back down when I step up to him but he puts up a little fight now. He eventually submits and then everything is fine, we hang out like...
Hello, I'm wondering if anyone has any idea of what breed my cockerel in the front could be mixed with, if anything? He is supposed to be a golden sebright, but his feathers are different than my other sebright cockerel and pullets. Thanks!
Hi everyone,
Please let me know if this is not OK to post here. I wanted to show an example of the visual difference between hens and roos. These birds are 3 months old and the same breed in these pictures. Notice how the roo (top) has a more pronounced comb and waddles. This will be the case...
Hello everyone,
I'm wondering if anyone might be interested in rehoming this little fella we named Benjamin. I took my chances with 6 straight run bantams and ended up with 3 roos. This guy is the least dominant within the 3 and is good to his own flock (2 roos, 9 hens) so far. He alerts for...
Hi, I'm just looking for advice on how to treat my girl Raven. She is a 1 year old black Australorp. The feather loss and rash were not visible on her as of 3-4 days ago so I'm not sure when it started. I'm guessing it's been progressing slowly. It is on her lower chest/upper belly.
She eats...
Hello,
I'm trying to figure out what my drake's problem is. He is 1 year old with 4 hens that he grew up with, one of them was gone for about 2 months living inside with bumblefoot. Re integrating her was a bit difficult because he didnt accept her right away, he wouldn't let her eat or near...
Hi. Just wondering if this little bantam boy is indeed a white leghorn. His personality does fit, I just got a little thrown off by the rusty brown coloring on the back of his neck. My regular sized leghorn hens do not have that. Thank you!
Hi,
This is a hardboiled swedhish blue hen's egg. She is about 10 months old and healthy. Does anyone know why this egg looks strange or is it a "normal" defect? I didn't end up eating this egg.
Thank you.
Hello,
I'm wondering if anyone has dealt with something similar to this. I have 5 ducks all around 8-9 months old. One of my pekin hens had bumblefoot over the winter so she lived inside with us for awhile. When she was re-integrated, my Swedish blue drake did not accept her. He wouldn't let...
Hello everyone,
This is Jasmine the Pekin. She's been living indoors for quite awhile now due to recurrent bumblefeet, probably caused by her deformed legs and how she walks. When she lived outside with my 5 other ducks, she preferred to hang out by herself for the most part so she has been...
Hello everyone,
My "issue" might be a normal occurance but I am a new chicken owner.
This is Dove. A beautiful, quiet and gentle 5 month old black australorp. My hens just started laying and this poor girl seems to be having a rough time. She has laid about 3 or 4 eggs so far and every time...
Does anyone else feel like they can't move when a chicken next to them is having a good time?
Please zoom into her face and see this glorious moment of hers.
Hello,
Does anyone in Massachusetts or even New Hampshire area want three Pekin ducks? 2 females and one male. They are approximately 4 months old and have not started laying yet. They are good ducks but I did not research the breed beforehand and they are different from my swedish blue ducks...
Hi everyone,
I'm wondering if I can get some opinions on one of my white leghorns. Both leghorns in the pictures are approximately 4 months old. I'm a bit concerned about the color of Henna's comb, it appears pale compared to the other leghorn. Is there anything I can do to help Henna? She is...
Hello everyone,
Just wondering if someone happens to want this approximately 14 week old pekin drake for a pet. He is starting to get his hormones riled up and I honestly don't have enough girls for him. I have another drake who's a swedish blue and the 3 girls are into him only. Benjamin the...
Hello everyone,
Can someone please take away my 14ish week old pekin drake?! He is an okay duck and I keep trying to give him chances to live here. The issue is that one of my female pekin drakes seems to set him off for some reason. She is completely uninterested in hanky panky unlike all of...
Hello everyone,
I'm wondering people's opinions on the gender of my tractor supply light brahma "pullets". The two chickens, Sunshine and Troublemaker, were competing for the top spot for awhile. The whole flock of 8 was in chaos when Troublemaker thought she was "winning" and she was such a...
