    Buff Orps Hen or Roo

    I have the same question! Thank you in advance for your help. I have a buff orpington, a speckled sussex, a cream legbar and two black bantam silkies, all born May 2nd. My buff has been twice the size of the others from the beginning. Recently, she's gotten very red and defined comb and waddle...

    I have three mature girls who are comfortable with their small coop, roomy run, and access to my big backyard. We have 5 babies coming the first week of May -- three regular size and two bantams. I am shopping for a second coop (either assembled or mostly assembled), and was planning on...

    is my "she" a "he"?

    I bought this "girl" about 6 weeks ago through craigslist. Her owner told me she was a pullet and half olive egger, half brahma (?). I bought her because I needed a companion for my lone remaining pullet, a leghorn. At first, the leghorn was clearly dominating the new girl. In the past week or...

    how long can they go without access to their food and water?

    I thought it was important to close the door when the weather is below freezing ... so there's no draft. It's a small space, maybe 3 x 4? So the door being open makes a big difference on inside temp. I actually have a heating pad in there on low too ....

    how long can they go without access to their food and water?

    I have two pullets and a coop and run designed for "up to four" chickens. Because it's dark so early and sooooo cold here in the northeast right now, I have been closing their coop door as early at 6 or 7pm. The problem is that their food and water is in the run and I have to open the door in...

    Have a 6-month old hen who lost all her mates and is alone -- what to do?? need advice!

    Thank you so much. I have not had great luck on craigslist so far. I just tried to post in the buy/sell/trade area here on this site and it won't let me. It's turning out not to be so easy to find a pullet for sale in my area (CT) in January.....

    Have a 6-month old hen who lost all her mates and is alone -- what to do?? need advice!

    We raised four female baby chicks and sadly lost three of them over time (dogs and a hawk) and are down to just our one leghorn. She is all alone in a small coop and run built for 4 max. I let her out at least once a day to run around the backyard and give her treats (corn and cheese are her two...
