I have Rhode Island Red and I didn't know she was actually a he. Yours kinda does resemble mine but maybe a bit smaller. I didn't think my rooster because for the longest time he didn't crow but at about 19 or 20 weeks he started to crow. Watch for the bright tail feathers and if its a he, he...
My rir is sitting on the nesting box now. When I try to get the eggs she makes this low growling noise and pecks at my hand. Shes sprawled out on the box. I thinks she broody, but im not for sure. What do y'all think?
My hen just started laying eggs two weeks ago and there hasnt been any weird eggs but one. All of them have been brown with tiny white speckle but one which was really long and had purple dots. Is this normal?
