Chicklette, I would love for you to take these two or at least one. Chuck, they are half OEG and half Sultan. One is larger in size then the other. They are a little flighty but not aggressive to people at all. I will take some more pics and post them later today. Just let me know. :D
I have 3 Roos with 11 hens. The Roos are all brothers and 5 1/2 months old. The hens are 6 months and some 5 1/2 months. Roos are fighting now. I think it is partly because they are half old OEG. I took 2 out of the coop and run but when I let them free-range it is game on. That is why I...
Hello to you Wink. I am not sure about the chicken ordinances in my town but after both neighbors having chickens for years, I decided to get some anyway. I do have a pot-belly pig that stays in a pen, everyone knows I have her and they haven't said anything. She is 12 years old so they have...
I understand. Theses came from my neighbors chicken and rooster. His chickens stay in my backyard during the day free ranging near the woods. I tried to get neighbor to take them or at least half but ended with all of the chicks. One rooster will come to me and let me hold and pet him, the...
Yes, Helen. They are all part sultan/OEG. They are about 4 half months old. If you do decide to get a rooster, please let me know. I need to re-home 2 out of the 3 that I have. One is really taller than the other two. I can post some updated pics, if needed. They are mating with my hens...
I see we are suppose to get 80's during the day and 60's at night on Sunday. I sure hope it pans out. I usually hate winter but can't wait for it to arrive now. We are going to be up to 100 everyday until the front. :barnie
Thanks Vickir. I need to give away one of the mixed roos. I have 3 from the sultan/old english game hatch. They are 4 months old and already trying to mate. Won't be long and they will be fighting for real. Right now, they just practice. Hard to find a home for a rooster but even worse for...
Thanks ange. I thought he was 2-3 months but checked my calendar and he is just now going to be close to 2 months. He is only PQ but we don't show our chickens. He is much loved as all ours are.
Oh, it wasn't easy getting her beak open enough to see. Was so worried that I was going to mess up her top beak. Most of the time I had to hold a flashlight on my shoulder with my cheek to be able to use both hands. Sometimes, I held her wrapped in a towel. I think she got tired of fighting...
All the chicks were hers. She is a sultan and dad is a game rooster. Here is some pics from the first day of hatch. Not sure why they aren't showing up on page 2 anymore.
PS. Got the coop and run finished long time ago. Bought 2 RIR, 2 BR and 2 EE chicks. They will be 5 months old...
You were so right on being off base. She did not have canker after all. I am glad I didn't cull her. She had a piece of thread around the base of her tongue. I looked in her mouth i know over 24 times in a wk and a half. I gave her the meds for 10 days. Even tube fed her a few times. She...
I have some updated pics of the chicks. They will be 4 months old next wk. I have 5 pullets and 3 roos. Anybody need a roo or two? :barnie
This roo looks similar to another but ones comb is taller
This roo has lighter colors and almost a light yellow coloring on his side although he...
