Not a new layer. We bet one every week or so. For a couple months.

They are attached. But I can scrape them off. They are not part of the shell. I was nervous about parasites

Has anybody had an egg like this? They appear to be very small hard balls. Like round calcium sprinkles. If you scratch them with your finger they fall off the egg.

Thank you everyone for the info. He/she is doing well. Just hate that's she is all alone. Think I'm going to look for a new home soon.

A friend found this bird on the road last night. I think it looks like a chicken. He thought it could be some kind of wild bird like a quail or pheasant. The bird has had most the feathers pecked from it back and has a large scab on the back of its head. It is eating good and looks happy but a...

No. I don't still have him. Sorry

Sorry I'm not paying to ship.

I have a Silkie rooster who is about 2 years old. My neighbor complained that he crows too much and animal control said he has to go. He is light tan. He will protect his girls. Silkies do not have spurs and only weighs about 3 lbs. so i mostly just laugh at him when he comes after me. Sometime...

I have one hen that has died and one that is sick. It looks like Mareks. Im not sure how old the hen are (got them from an auction) but they were full grown when i got them, I have had them about 6 months. Now they are sick. I have 3 other chickens that are ok , so far. I thought Mareks was...

It did not go too bad. The two new silkies looked happy but keep to their self in the coop. My other chickens spent most of the day in the yard. I did see one of my hens peck at the silkie rooster once. He was also bleeding a little from a spot on his head. I put Vicks on his head and hope that...

Thank you all for the ideas, I really like the two food dishes. I will do that for sure. I just put them in a few min. ago (11:00 pm). I wish i could sit out there a make sure they are ok. I will see them in the morning. Hope their new big sisters are nice to them. Smoochie; I have 1 black...

Thank you for your input. I just pick up the rooster and he came with a hen too (both buff). They are a little older, about 9 months. It may help that my flock is small (4 hens). I plan to put them in tonight. Fingers crossed.

I have heard that you should wait till night time to add a new hen to your flock. But what about roosters?? I am getting a rooster today. Can I just add him to my group of girls? The rooster is a silkie. Some of my girls are large birds. I am little scared they may pick on him. Does that ever...

I have two hens about the same age. One lays and the other does not. I have two other hens who are molting. Im in the same boat with my Black Australorps, she is the one not laying or molting. Im not sure why but you are not alone :) I think im just going to wait it out till spring and hope...

I just wrote to the hatchery for the second time. I just got a refund. Not sure what I paid but i looks like the refund is ALL or most of the money I paid, including shipping. Now maybe i can buy a couple more hens at the fair in a couple weeks :) Thank you all for helping me.

Make that 3 roosters!!! I would not use Southern Farm Hatchery in Mississippi.

I bought sexed chicks from Southern Farm Hatchery. I wanted all girls. The Buff Orpington has a large comb and i have seen him crow. I have 2 Black Arstalorps one looks to be a rooster, larger comb, bigger bird and a larger tail than the other Arstalorp. Its funny that you are guessing EE...

Do you think it's a rooster even without having any comb? Im so upset to have gotten 3 rooster out of the 5 hens I bought :(

I ordered this chicken from Southern Farm Hatchery about 4 months ago. I should have been a Speckled Sussex hen. The older it gets the more clueless I get. I was sure it was a hen till the tail started growing bigger than the other roosters. What do you Think? The brown one in the front...
