Our first soft shell egg. The girls are very new to laying. Is that the reason or do they need more calcium? I feed them a all flock feed with oyster shell available
This is the 2nd time my roosters comb has been purple towards the back. It takes few days for it to go away and now it’s back. My thought was his head may have gotten stuck in the feeders I have the no waste ones you put in the 5 gallon bucket. I haven’t seen him use the feeder recently , he...
Tree ( the rooster named by my 4 year old) guarding his 16 girls in the coop because the lawnmower with the lawn sweeper on the back got too close. Little did he know, those bug filled clippings were for them!
Hi friends ◡̈
So my flock is 15 and 13 weeks old. 16 pullets and 2 cockerels. May be getting rid of one rooster, but that’s beside the point. They’re mostly in the coop and run, I try to let them out for a supervised free range daily. We have tons of predators in our area. My reasoning for a...
My black Jersey giant is 15 weeks old, way to early to start laying right? It’s a small possibility that this is a midnight majesty maran. Some of those were all black, But I’m pretty sure not. Why is her comb and waddle so red?

I wanna dedicate this thread to weird places or positions you’ve found your chicken roosting in or on.
Idk if its just because of the age (8 weeks old) or if they're normally goofs and will randomly roost in odd spots. When they first started out in the coop, they were all over the place...
