Could very well be a Australorp. I have 11 of them and our Roo that was breed between them has reddish-brown wing and back feathers. Well streaks of them. He is 19 weeks old. He was all black at first but them he is turning reddish-Brown. I know he is a Australorp for that is all we had...

Need help identifying chicks. Was said to be americauna's with the father being (white with black tail feathers - Im thinking Sussex) No clue on age - said to be 6 weeks, but very doubtful. They are pretty large for that age. Male or female on all please. Plus what do you think they are? I...

We just got these.... said to be Americana's with a mix of Sussex. Said to be 6 wks but doubtful. Any ideas on how old and male or female.

Thank you. When the baby 2 day old grows up, I will take a pic of his daughter with a SLW mom. Has anybody tried mixing a BA with an ophington. (pardon my spelling lol)?

This is my rooster Mix (mom=SLW, Dad=BA)

From what I have done with my BA roo and SLW hen the baby will be all black with a rose comb then mine 2 roos are turning a golden color around their heads and necks. They are 14 weeks old. Just to give you an idea.

I have crossed a ba roo with a slw hen snd ended up with a roo that looks like dad but with a rose comb. At 14 weeks old he started to change color on his head and neck to a light brown and then white, so he has some of his mom in his colors - lets see what he will look like when he gets older...

90 is nothing compared to our BA's eggs. We have had 98, 116 and today 117 gram eggs. They normally lay large to extra large ranging from 59-71 grams. These are 3 we have got in 3 weeks. I believe it was from Jersey (our Black Jersey giant). I have broken all of them except the one I got...

Chickens know when to go out in the cold and when to stay in. I have BA's and SLW's. If you have chickens that have a straight comb you need to make sure to take Vaseline and rub their combs with a small layer to coat so they do not get frost bite. Most of the time you want to keep your coops...

No don't leave it outside at night. Hang it outside during the day and bring it in at night. Your chickens do not need to have it inside the coop. When you let them out in the morning, bring the food out to and hang it. But it would probably be a good idea to try and hang it outside where the...

The lighting is not really a concern for you could put a small light in the coop. We have one of those extension cord lights that you use for maintenance on a car. That you hook to the hood, and a wire cage around the light so it doesn't break. We hooked it up to the roof of the coop in the...

I have inside nesting boxes. We wanted a way to make it easy to clean, feed and water, and collect the eggs daily. Our coop looks like a big dog house. The 2 sides fold down for easy access to clean, remove the nesting boxes, etc. The nesting boxes we have looks like a small bookshelf the...

I have never tried to do exterior nesting boxes. Our coop has a fold down sides so it has easy cleaning and nesting boxes like a small bookshelf on its side. We cut small round holes in the back so we can fold down the door and reach in the holes from the back and grab the eggs without going...

My Rocky the rooster started crowing at 8 1/2 weeks. He only seems to try when we let them out into the run in the mornings. No other time. 3 tries and he is done. Lol.

I have 15 new baby hens and 1 baby roo. Can I let them out when they're 9 week's old with the older 1 1/2 yr old hens to free range? Will they go back to their coop or maybe go to the older ones coop?

Is this a silver laced wyndotte? I see a straight comb and not a rose comb. We got her from Mypetchicken.

I too am new to the whole chicken raising thing. I live in Ohio and our Chicken run was like what your first one did. We placed metal stakes in the corners and one in the center of each side, hooked the fencing to it and left it a little wobbly as well. The reason for this is that if anything...
