    Can anyone help me identify this breed?

    I got these two a few years back and can not remember what breed they were for the life of me. I'm sure I'll remember it once I hear it again, but I would love to get more like them and cannot remember what they're called.

    Lay one egg than stop?

    One of my EE laid a blue egg but hasn't laid another one for about a month. All of my other chickens lay brown eggs and she's the only blue layer. They free range but they all lay in the coop boxes. She is at the age to start laying, and I've only gotten one egg but she hasn't laid anymore. Is...

    Swollen around the eye?

    My youngest pullet had this a month ago and it went away in a few days, but my other hen just got it. I put VetRX on it the last time and it cleared up really fast, but this time it isn't going away as fast... did what you had done work?

    Help! EE eye problem!

    I don't think she can see very well and I don't know what to do. Any idea what it is or what could have happened? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    RIR gender?

    Ok, I was really hoping he would turn out to be a pullet but he acts very different from the rest of the pullets and the older hens bully him more so I was really confused because he was meant to be a girl. Thanks for your help though!

    When to start free ranging?

    I have a few new chicks for this season and they have been staying in the coop and run, but when can I safely allow them to free range with the older chickens? The new ones are still a little small but they are feathered out and are doing well outside. Also how long should they stay in the coop...

    Introduction

    We have two 3 week easter egger pullets and 3 other few day old chicks to add to our current small flock of Orpingtons. All the chicks and older chickens are pullets by the way - its still too cold outside for any of the chicks to go out for the night - but when it is time, how should I...

    Guinea Pig Temperature

    My sister's guinea pigs have to stay in the basement due to my allergies. We have a thermometer down there that says it's 63ºF. Is that ok for them to stay down there or should we find a new place in the house?

    1st time!!

    We are getting some eggs and this will be our first time hatching! I need all the help I can get, from incubator blueprints to any extra ideas or helpful tid-bits. When we get the eggs do we put them straight in the incubator? What temp should it be? How long should they stay in after they...

    What breed?

    I have orpington hens and I was wondering what other breeds would get along with them that are close to their size but also good egg layers. Any suggestions?

    Is this enough for their safety?

    Yeah the top is open, but in their run there is a low pine tree and other trees around it to block from sky view. We may plant another low bush in their or a poultry net over top if need be.

    Is this enough for their safety?

    We got rid of our last rooster that was supposed to be a hen. Out of our 9 pullets, 4 turned out to be boys that we had to relocate, and two vanished. We have three girls left and are planning to add more soon but have decided to make other arrangements before than. We only plan on having hens...

    i am looking for a friendly, but protective rooster what breed is best?

    My Orpington roo is very protective of his girls but still is very friendly to me and my family. He is very large and chases away anything that he isnt comfortable with. He is protective yet still loves to be held - he's our best roo.
