I have two of these girls and I think one might be a rooster... They're between 8-9 weeks old. Let me know what you think. 🤷🏼♀️
The suspected boy has a larger comb, I'll post his pictures last.
They're on layer crumble. They get egg shells as well as a constant supply of oyster shells. They are fed all of our veggie scraps. They're healthy little ladies. I have tried locking them up in the coop for a few days, and no eggs. They're both doing the squat when I pet them. They're coop is...
So I have two chickens, and Ameraucana, and a Cuckoo Maran. Both of them are a little over 1 year old. Right about the 7 month old mark, they each laid one egg. Both were perfect, and I had expected to get many more... However that hasn't happened. They live in an enclosed 12 x 20 ft area. I...
I have a cuckoo maran and an EE that laid one egg each three weeks ago, and haven't laid one since! They're 7 months old. The weather has been in the 85-100 range could that be why? They're confined to a large area, and I've searched everywhere in their run with no eggs found anywhere! Darn...
Hi everyone. So my buff passed away last night. She was so frail, it was devastating! I'm happy she's in a better place now but still feeling so confused about why. I didn't see her pass, she'd been gone for at least a few hours once I got home from running errands. It was also well into the...
This exact scenario just happened to me with my 6 mo old austrolorp! I mean honestly down to dying in my arms and the brownish fluid coming out! It took 2 days from me noticing she kinda lethargic, wasn't coming for treats, not eating as much to her dying! It was scary! I'm so sorry you're...
I did feather sex her a day or two after hatch and totally looked like a girl, but I easily could be wrong... I have been before! I'm totally cool with a mixed breed, I am just so curious. I can't find anything that looks like her, or him! Idk!
I got them both as chicks at the same time. I know, I feel like I'm at a loss. I have no idea what happend and still no idea what's going on with the buff. Maybe it's just bad luck, idk.
So Im on the verge of tears right now. My favorite chicken Barbie Que just died in my arms! She was a 4 month old Austrolorp, she was beautiful and super friendly. I noticed yesterday that she was kinda hanging by herself, but just thought she was resting. Today I noticed that she was very...
I have a 4 month old Buff Orph, that started acting lethargic. I confined her and noticed that she very thin, and now she starting to get these little scabs.
Her first symptoms were:
Molting
Constant scratching
Lethargic
Bruising on legs
Scabs on face
Ive treated for worms and mites, no...
Thank you, that does make me feel better! Thank god for the chicks alerting me that they were getting hot or I would never have known! My digital thermometer was turned out of sight!
So far I have two that I've seen movement from, I haven't seen much from the others though. I'll just cross my...
