This is our coop so far we will add another layer of pallets for the height
Our plan is to close the gaps like this and doing the top ventilation like posted probably only a foot of ventilation... Should I add windows? The chickens free range most of the time so I will be able to leave the top...
Feet are ash/grey colored
Sadly she didn't make it more then 2 hours coming home from the store... She was by far the tiniest and weakest chick there. We assumed she wouldn't make it but were really hoping we could help her.. It was the only one like her in the assorted bantam tub. Any guesses?
When did ur rooster start showing a comb/wattle and turning red?
My "girls" are 3 weeks old, 1 has absolutely no comb and the other 2 barely have a single come popping up. I believe they are oeg bantams. I know all breeds and birds are different but I just wanted to see the "average"
What breed?
Anyone want to guess on sex? I know it's to early to really tell "she" is 2 wks old maybe a few days older but not much.
Thank you! I think I have an idea but want to see if I am even in the ball park... I got "her" from Atwoods who gets the from ideal hatchery if that matter
I have read several articles stating that u can determine sex of a chick by looking at the wings if they are even it's a roo if uneven it's a hen..
Is this all chickens? Is this a myth? (I know it's not 100%) thoughts!
These are the wings in question..... ;)
I bought my chicks at Atwoods, they use Ideal hatchery... What would be the odds of me getting an EE? I am pretty sure their site says pure breeds.... and correct me if I am wrong but EE are not a "real" breed?
After sitting each day this week, by the door of the run she finally came this close to me!! She was give to me and hates people (well really anything) I have tried everything to get her to come anywhere near us.. All the other just walk by and want to be petted her though? baby steps!! I am...
