My silkie/cochin cross was acting really weird the other morning and I am hoping it's bc she may be getting ready to lay. What do you think, hen or roo?? Her name is Gloria and she is 6 months old. She's adorable. She was up on the perch inside the run area of my largish coop and just...

okay, i just went out there and caught Polly (the rooster I shall now call Pollo) was picking on one of my hens while the other one squwaked in the corner. I separated them... :-/

They free range all day. I've done some sweeps of their areas but haven't found any eggs yet. I will give it a better inspection.

the girls are 7 1/2 months (blue laced red wyandotte and white langshan) and 6 1/2 months old (barred rocks) and they are still not laying. They are molting a little so I wonder if the conditions are not right. They may have a slight draft on them at night but no lower that 60 degrees outside...

Thanks. Is that a check for her being a lady?

I bought this pullet a few weeks ago and not sure if she's really a she. Any help? Also, do the feather on her rear look normal and healthy? I'm a first time chicken owner and this supposed Langshan looks a lot different than my Wyandotte and BR. Thanks
