    Im not sure its just one chicken picking on her. It seems like all the girls are against her. The only one that likes to be with my poor Luna, is Mr. Darcy the rooster... :/

    question about pecking order: How severe is it? My chickens are casting out one of my hens, the youngest, though not the smallest. She is so scared of these other chickens that while they are inside coop she will be outside in the run, and she will try to run past them and their beaks as...

    Thank you! My BCMs dont have a comb or wattles yet. One is getting red around the face but its comb is black and short still. :/ Guess I have more time left than I thought! :)

    Anyone have any experience with Black Copper Marans? About what age would they start developing red combs and wattles? And does a chicken lay an egg before she has a comb/wattles? (sorry for newbie ignorance!) I am not positive on how old my BCM are, but they are over 3 months at least. I...

    ^^ LOL Kass They do all the time, dont they! My Yorkie, Coco, is over a year old and she was here first, so she is in charge of this Great Dane, Sadie, who has 45 lbs on her! Its quite a funny site to see the huge dog 'hide' under the sidetable from the little one. :) Coco thinks she is...

    She weighs about 45-50 lbs right now. We are in the disaster stage of trying to teach her that the kitchen counter-tops, and tabletops are off limits to her now that she can easily reach them much less just see whats up there. :/ lol This was her at around 14 wks. She thinks she is as...

    ***OKIES in the BYC III ***

    Yes I believe they are both girls, however one does concern me a little.... Thank you--I was hoping that they could co-exist. I will def keep my eye on them and wait it out. My next question however is, what size egg is my Banty Ameraucanas going to produce? Excuse my ignorance, but would a...

    So I have these two banty Ameracaunas....would there people really interested in these or are they going to be only a couple dollars worth to most people? If what everyone is saying is true than I apparently need to find a new home for my 2 bantams away from my barred rock roo. :(

    ***OKIES in the BYC III ***

    I wasnt no...but I also didnt realize that I had bantams. I thought that they were going to grow to regular sized chickens. Now I dont know what to do. I have had such bad luck getting chickens/pullets and now I finally have 5 and 2 of them are super small. ugh :/

    I have a Barred Rock Roo already. So I figure that he wont share his women very well....Im really hoping its a hen and not roo. Im def believing that I have bantam ameraucanas. This is exactly what my blue and black chicks look like! Now just to determine if I have 2 gals :)...

    I have solid color ones with slate colored legs. One is blue and one is black. Im worried that one might be a roo which is depressing bc that will make the 3rd Roo Ive gotten. I started off with only 4 chickens, lost one to a snake and one was a roo, bought 3 more and one was a roo, bought 2...

    ***OKIES in the BYC III ***

    woops--I put the wrong # of months there! Its suppose to be 3 months!! Im thinking they have to be bantams, bc these little gals are tiny and even looking online -- 10 wk old easter eggers are decent sized compared to my lil ones. Im also wondering if I have actual ameraucanas instead of...

    Here is my old dog house that I remodeled into our chicken coop. I built the run out of spare pieces of wood, so its jigsawed together. I am still int the process of fixing it all the way up, but am not patient and already have residents living in it :) I am replacing the door to be solid and...
