I have 3 chickens. 2 of them have these black areas on their face. The other chicken is black so I can't tell if she is affected. noticed it 2 weeks ago. The area looks kind of fuzzy. Have looked everywhere I could find and haven't been able to see anything that looks like this. Could it be a...
The 2 boys i have have never even looked at me funny...and even the younger polish roo i have is a frisky bugger but hasnt shown any aggression toward any of us...what breed are these? i have a Yokie roo, an EE cross cockeral, and the 8-10 week old polish cockeral...all sweet.
They are polish...
Mean little cockerels! 2 of my 3 little boys - 10 weeks old - have jumped up at me and scratched my arm. On purpose. Both times I was giving them new food and water and they came into the cage to jump at me. Is this normal behavior? My girls have always been so sweet. (except for Penny...

Here is another view of the 3. I have such a hard time getting pics. They're so fast!
Here is a close up of the wcb
Sorry for the little pic. Having problems inserting pics...
I have 4 polish 10 weeks old. I am leaning toward Roos for 3 of them. What do y'all think?
Also, do curved tail feathers always mean Roo? All have curving tail feathers. And the red
markings on the faces all look like this pic below.... Thanks!
I have 4 polish chicks 10 weeks old. I am pretty sure I have 3 roos and 1 hen.
Here is an example of what the faces on the 3 look like...
They all have the same markings on the face and the wild hair.
The hackle feathers look pretty pointed to me... Any chance a
hen could have a face and...
Hi everyone from (near) San Antonio! I have 3 red sex link hens over a year old and 4 polish chicks 2 months old. I have never been to a chicken show before and 4H is having one in San Marcos tomorrow. I am so excited! Going to take my mom with me. She's one of the only ones whose eyes...
I didn't even think about the medicated part and eating the eggs. I will check right away to see but I think my new bag of feed is not medicated. OK, I will put out some extra oyster shell and stop stressing so much. The chicks are not interested in the laying feed as it is too big for them...
Now that my 2 month old Polish chicks are free ranging with my 3 big red stars, I am having a problem. They all get along but the food situation is not good. I leave food and water in the small coop I have for the chicks and the hens are eating the chick starter. I read on here that getting...
Well, happy birthday then!!! I know you are so excited with your little ones here.
I have 3 red star hens who are the sweetest girls ever. Good luck with your babies!
Welcome from San Antonio.... Tamma
So it would probably be better to bring in another chick her same age. I did pay for all of them and he was very nice. I bet he will give me an older chick if he has them. I might have to get another breed but I don't care. I just want them to get along. I am going to try to take some...
