I am looking for a good home for a rooster that was supposed to be an Americauna pullet. I got them as chicks the first week of March. He is healthy and beautiful. He is a little skittish, not mean though. I can't have a rooster because of my neighbors. I'd prefer a good home vs someone...
Thanks Donrae, I wasn't quite sure what he would look like when he got older but it's nice to know that he will hopefully turn out to be handsome :) Hopefully he will be a good rooster.
:( Leave it to my mother to pick a rooster out of what was supposed to all be pullets. *sigh* I was hoping for some pretty eggs. Well, I don't have a roo, just my tom turkey, hopefully all will work out. My husband is going to kill me LOL.
I got these guys at the beginning of March, all the chicks I got are supposed to be pullets, they were a couple of days old when I got them. I got 2 Americauna, 1 Barred Rock, 1 Buff Orpington and 2 Black Australorp. What is the deal with the "Americauna's"? They do not want to be near me and...
Ok thanks :) I know she is watching them (they are home during the day) and making sure that the chick is getting plenty to eat and drink. They have a bigger cage that they can go into as well so we will move them to that instead. My mom is good at raising baby ducks :) She thinks it is odd...
So I bought some chicks at the local feed store. The five chickens I have now were all purchased as older birds so forgive me for the dumb question.
Any how, I got 2 Black Australorp's, a Buff Orpington (the youngest chick out of them all), a Barred Rock and I believe they are 2 Ameraucana's...
Ok so I bought some chicks :) I have two Australorps, a barred rock, a buff orpington and I believe two ameraucanas but they said they were marans. I figured what the heck.
Ok so nothing will be medium sized? I know that Bantams would be labeled as such :) I just wasn't sure if one of those breeds were more on the medium sized and not big huge birds.
Ok so I have 5 bantam hens. Two Wyandottes (1 silver laced, one white), an Old English (orange color-lol I don't know what that is called) and two unknowns( one grey, one orange color), they live with my tom turkey. I'm debating on getting more chickens. I obviously like small birds, I'm not a...
Ok is it possible to have two egg bound birds at the same time? My two older Bantam hens who knock on wood have never been egg bound that I know of have been hanging out in their coop for a the past two days. They haven't laid any eggs but they are erratic layers. They seem ok other then just...
Thank you :) It was fun taking their pictures today :) I couldn't wait to share them :) I hope they are all hens:) Although one rooster would be ok ...I think :)
Oh that's good to know! I've never seen my other girls fight like that before, even though I have owned Chickens for a couple of years now I'm still learning :)
The white one is a Wyandotte as well. I think the smaller buff colored one is an Bantam Old English Game hen and I really am not sure what the other two are. Got them at a swap this spring.
