    My girl is getting picked on

    She is still away from the flock. I agree, I think she needs to go back. As far as long term, not sure. My husband has been changing his mind about every other day. I would like to keep one or two just to keep the blood line. However, that still leaves me with three. The plan at the beginning...

    My girl is getting picked on

    Thanks aart, I appreciate your feedback. I had about the same idea. I know that my girl doesn't act sick. So it must be. They haven't started laying but I expect it in the next few week. I will try to put her back with the rest of the flock may be about the time she does start laying but by then...

    I have 12 Thai chickens just shy of 5 months, all sibling and been together since they've hatched. 5 roos and 7 girls.

    What is your true Hatch success rate?

    My husband and I decided to let one of our hens sit on eggs as we had 4 hens get killed by the neighbor dog. We have three coops and put one hen and one rooster together and let them do their thing. After about three weeks our hen was sitting on seventeen (17) eggs. We knew that the rooster was...

    My young rooster is having problems.

    10/5/13 update: Our little rooster has been on the suggested rickets diet for nearly a week now. It is hard to tell if he is feeling better, but being the optimist that I am it seems he is moving a little better and standing tall more often. His appetite is still strong, so hopefully the diet...

    I will post pics there, but FWIW I think they are a game/mix of some type too. Their attitudes seem in line also. Thanks again for all the warm welcomes!

    Thanks for the welcomes! For the 9 months that we have had these chickens, we have been trying to figure out what breed they might be. Anybody got input? It was thought from the get-go that we had some sort of mix breed. They came from a friend's mother's backyard, and she doesn't show...

    My young rooster is having problems.

    Here is the nearly 3 month old rooster. His left foot seems to curl in on itself more than normal, and often his bottom appears an irritated reddish color as above. Like mentioned, his appetite is fine and he drinks plenty of water. Often he leans to one side or the other as he sits down, but...

    My young rooster is having problems.

    Hello everyone, I am new here at BYC and I am in need of some advice. I have a young rooster about 2 months old. We hatched him along with his sister which hatched 1 week later. About 2 weeks ago when I went outside to check on them I noticed that my rooster seemed to be having a hard time...
