Does anyone know what this is on my roo's skin? If so how do I treat this. I have tried to post a photo with no success. At the base of each feather is a red spot. He looks like he has the measles. I did see some white stuff mated in his feathers

Thank you. I was afraid it would be. I already have a very nice RIR too. Oh well maybe I can find him a good home. Thanks, I love this site

Can anyone tell me if this a rooster or hen?

Is a red rooster a Rhode island red? And will the pullets be good layers? Thank you for your help

I have 5 golden comets hens, I get eggs every day even in the winter (at least 2-4). I would like to get a rooster,should I try to find a golden comet rooster or could you recommend a different breed that would compliment my flock?

Great pictures! I love your coop.:)

WOW!!!!!! Beautiful eggs!

Thanks, that will make it nice and fluffy.

What is the best bedding for my nest boxes? I need to be ready when the time comes for that first egg.

Wow that was a huge help! I don't know how old she is because a friend of mine bought her at a chicken sale. I know now that is NOT the place to get chickens. I was just getting excited wanting eggs while I wait on my chicks to get big enougt to lay. I bought 3 RIRs and 3 Golden Comets at TSC...

I have one hen that has a spot of blood in every one of her eggs. Does anyone know the cause and prevention of this? Thank You

Anyone know where I could find a reasonably priced egg scale? Thanks for your help

The mister i bought at TSC is 6ft for $9.95 and it uses very little water. I barely turn the hose on, the mist is very fine.

How about one of those small personal fan? You could clamp it to something inside the coop to blow on them from a distance. The fans can be found at TSC

That's it! you can buy more than one and they hook together. my chicken lot is 20x20 so this one fits good. I let them out of the lot about 8am so the can free range but up in the day I turn on the mist,it uses very little water.

I put a small window fan in the back window of my coop for the hot nights. i bought a mist system from TSC for $9.95 that is 10 feet long. I strung it across the top of my chicken lot at a diagonal. It sprays a very fine mist and you can point the spray tips in different directions. My chickens...

Thanks. I guess I'm getting a little excited.

Is it ok to give my 13 week old golden comets and RIRs laying mash? i

Thanks for the info. I just acquired a couple of welsummers a roo and hen. They are only 6 or 7 weeks old but I got something to look for to.
