    http://purelypoultry.net/citronella-fresh Do you have any other recommendations? Are the tiki torches with citronella oil safe to use around the chickens? What about the citronella plants?

    7 week old lavender orpington runt?

    I just got this 2 girls on Friday from a farm and they look a little ragged. I bathed them and when I gave them food they ate it so fast and got food all over their faces. Was really cute! One of the chicks is 1/2 the size of the other but is feathered out like the bigger one so I am thinking...

    15 week BO girl or boy?

    Zia is 15 weeks old in these pictures. She was such a friendly sweetheart but in the past couple of weeks she has become difficult to handle, she runs and jumps from us and is acting strange. I was looking at some other posts of 15 week old BO's and I noticed that her tail looks very different...

    17 week old she or he? picture heavy

    We have always suspected Fiddle was a rooster but no egg yet and no crow I don't see any saddle feathers and he is such a sweet chicken. All 3 of my "production red" chickens have had this weird tail thing where they get down to the last 1-2 black tail feathers and then they fall out and they...

    Breed and Gender Question - picture heavy

    My chickens are now 9 weeks old and I am curious what breed or gender they may be. I got them from a guy/farm in the county and was never told what kind they are. Little Fiddle - 9 weeks old, we are pretty sure he is a rooster but hoping we are wrong. Tuesday - 9 weeks Rose - 9 weeks...

    Roo?

    I took Terra , pictured below, to a feed store where they agreed to re-home "him" and they told me I needed to wait 2 more months to be sure she is a he. I'm a convinced Terra is a rooster. 6 weeks 5 days old. What do you think? Could Terra still be a hen?

    She is so assertive and bosses all the others around. She is also the friendliest and loves for us to hold her. She has started jumping on the others backs and chasing them around herding them back into the coop. I'm really starting to suspect she is a he

    Any guesses at breed? Hen or Roo?

    I'm new to having chickens, in fact I've only had them for 3 weeks. They will be 4 weeks old in 3 days and the breed is unknown although some have suggested three of them are Red Star hybrids. I'm starting to get really paranoid and think they are all roosters. I am certain 1 is for sure. Any...
