I'd respectfully disagree? I believe the barred rocks are girls. The color is much to dark for a boy. The first barred rock also looks like she has something else in her? I'd agree with your other 2 roo predictions!

Thank you! Will she vomit with impacted crop? It just seems hard not mushy or watery? What about baking soda in the water? Or dropping some in her mouth? Do you know how much or anything? I'm just paranoid of getting anything in her lungs! Thank you very much everyone~

Dont you have to squirt in a certain place? Or just her beak? Could it get in her lungs or anything? Haha thanks Im just kind of paranoid and would a dropper work or something else?

Ok so my bsl hen I'm pretty sure had impacted crop is wheesing, plus her crop is hard as a rock, and it's sticking out. I'm still pretty new to the world of chickens but I've been learning my way. I really need help with this one though! I've read different things about olive oil, and syringes...

Hi, Ok so I've been reading about muddy coops when I started reading about coccidiosis. I've read that once the mud in the coop dries up, I should layer it with sand and maybe pebbles? What kind of sand? What about DE? (Btw with all this rain, my run has been really really muddy.) Anyways, about...

I'd day pullet, the combs nice and pale and the coloring is pretty even.

Ok so my EE pullet who's about 2-3 months old now has had this one runny eye for the past month. I noticed it one day because she normally jsut keeps it closed. I wipe it a little with a warm soft cloth or Q-tip every once in a while but it just seems to not go away..... I don't really think...

We kept our pullets separate form our older girls for the first week. We had them in a fenced off area in the run so they could still see each other. After letting them out during the day together for a few days, in the middle of the night when the other chickens are in bed, take all the pullets...

I currently have an EE cockerel, BR pullet, Red Star Rooster, and a Black Star/BSL hen. Could I breed these? They all get along well? When it comes to mating will there still be to much stress? Overmating? The roosters are very sweet! Thanks guys!

Thank you! I know I just have that 2:2 ration of hens and roosters..... there all really sweet if that changes anything? They've all grown up together. What if I just added one hen? Still to many roosters and not enough hens? I just don't have the room for too many more hens.... I don't want...
