Was told these were both pullets based on some sex link factors when breeding splash/blue babies. Was told the males would have a dot on their head and be blue cuckoos (we had one hatch that matched this to a T we already rehomed) and the pullets would have this coloring. However, one of the...

gone thanks

Nevermind. She has integrated into our flock :)

My fav chick we got as a sexed pullet suddenly is looking more rooster than her sister easter egger. She's been losing some feathers near her bum too which may attribute to the shape? Nothing alarming, just more than the others

So I happen to have a plastic egg that is from my daughters play kitchen. Its lighter than a real egg or golf ball. Is it ok to put in the nesting boxes?

Ive been putting it in, but wondering if they even touch it since they seem to go to sleep? Do I always need to put the ramp up (putting it up also closes the 'door' to the coop) at night even in the summer?

I've been finding some poo like this but the girls have had a lot of new additions to their diet lately

Her feet are so big lol[/IMG] [/IMG]

Alright, so here is my coop. It maxes out at 4 hens, which of course I got. But, as you can see, not alot of outside room so we want to build an attached run. Funds are low so I have been getting wood off craigslist to e. I have wood for the bottom part of the frame (its entirely too heavy...

It's not moving but is breathing. The mom/dad and this young one are in my yard every day eating. My dog was out earlier but I don't think she got him because the only way I happened to find him was I just let my dog out and she was looking for a place to do her business and suddenly was...

I am going to be building a 6ft tall and maybe 12 feet long run that attaches to my coop for the girls to be out during the day, and will be putting them back up in the coop at night (which has hardware mesh) can I use welded wire for just the run itself, or just the roof of the run or do I need...

So we cannot free range our chickens so we have a coop and are building a run. They are just pullets now (2m old) and I am working on some trays of sprouts using outside dirt that has alot of rocks from the yard. I am guessing if there are marble and golfball sized rocks in there (I did pick out...

So we were going to do 2 so that in a few years when they stop laying we could rotate 2 more in (thus reaching our limit of 4) and keep the non layers the rest of their life span as well. I was recently told that hens really crave a 'flock' which at a minimum is actually 3 birds. So, I am...

From what I have read green legs are actually Easter Eggers? They are 4 weeks old

I have been looking at a ton of plans but I have a feeling we either have to buy something already made like this Or make our own plans. We can only have up to 4 chickens where we live, so we are starting with 2 so that when they stop laying we can add 1 or 2 more. Because we cannot let them...
