    Rooster butt pecked by hens?

    I have the same problems with one of my roosters right now. Everyone seems to enjoy pecking his butt lately. I don't know if he is loosing his spot in the pecking order or what it might be. Let us know if you figure anything out

    Delawares not Orpingtons!

    From my vague memory, my hatchery Delaware rooster started all yellow. Not white at all. And no spots at all either until he started feathering out. So I say there is a chance it could be a Delaware if its a hatchery chick.

    Dog eating chicken poo?

    I'm glad to hear I don't have the only gross dog. And since you all seem not to be worried about it, then I'm not going to stress about it either

    Is sugar cane mulch OK for brooker?

    I don't know much about sugar cane mulch other than I've heard it used for gardening, but I don't know the reasoning for that. If you cant find shavings or saw dust, then I would say go for sand, you might be able to find it in your yard or around town somewhere and they normally sell it at...

    using hay bales for winter warmth inside coop

    I would think using straw would be kind of like the deep litter method. I don't know how it would become any dirtier using it for warmth as apposed to floor covering and bedding. I think straw, or hay which is easier to come by in my area, is what we are going to pile in our coop for our girls...

    Is sugar cane mulch OK for brooker?

    From what I've seen on here things people have used for a brooder are pine (not cedar) shavings, rice hulls, straw, hay, paper towels, regular towels, or sand. Just something absorbent but not slippery. I think your pretty open to what you would like to use as long as you clean it regularly and...

    10wk Anacona am I roo or pullet

    Wow, I have a mystery rooster right now and he looks just like her. But, he is under two months and already crowing and looking like a boy. My guess would be then yours is a pullet. Can I ask you were you got her from?

    Blu-Kote and picking chicks

    Is it the momma pecking or just the other chicks? Maybe you could spray all the little chicks feet, and they wouldn't realize who was the one with the hurt toe?

    Chicks drowning in rain?

    Moonkit, I don't believe they are talking about drowning by being in a puddle, or a low spot that fills with rain. I think they mean drowning by the rain drops going in their mouths. That's unfortunate about your silkie.
