We did finally catch her!! I didn't feel anything wrong with her neck. But it seems that where her ears are she has feathers there and they do stick out. I guess she's just different...
This "girl" is approximately 4-5 months old. Her breed is Ameracauna. She is a runt. I'm concerned about her neck feathers. The other 2 Ameracaunas we got with her have smooth feathers on their necks. Should I be concerned?
Thanks in advance.
I noticed an eye issue today with one of my Gold Sex Links. She's keeping her eyelid closed on 1 eye. There's no drainage or lesions. I think she's having trouble seeing because she is just standing in one spot and didn't come when I put a new flock block out. She looks healthy otherwise...
I have 8 hens, 2 RIR and 6 Gold Sex Links. 7 have been laying since August. I have never gotten 8 eggs. I know the reds are laying, not sure which of the golds is not. Can hens just not have any eggs to lay? I'm a newbie chicken owner. Thanks for information.
I have 2 RIR and 6 gold comets. Most of them have started laying but I have never gotten 8 eggs yet. I get between 6-7 a day. I know for a fact that both of the RIRs are laying. Not sure which of the gold comets aren't. Is it possible for a chicken to not have any eggs or is one of them just...
I have 8 hens. 2 RIR and 6 Gold Comets. We have been getting between 6-7 eggs a day. So do I have a hen that's a dud??
I know for sure that both RIRs are laying. Do I need to worry about the one that's not laying yet or is she just slow?
We have 8 hens. We've been getting 4-5 eggs a day. Yesterday we got 6, today 4.
I have a question......does each chicken lay 1 egg a day or do some lay more than one egg a day?
I'm sure you can tell, I'm new to chickens!!
:lol:
Yes.....it's hot here in South Louisiana too! My girls love watermelon and grapes! I try to offer them different snacks but it seems those are their favorites.
We got our first two eggs today! My question is......one goofy chicken laid her egg in her water pan......it's cracked but not broken. Should I toss it?
Thanks!
I'm sure this has probably been discussed before, but, I'm new to this group and new to raising chickens. We have 2 RIR in the coop, they are probably 6 weeks old. We have 6 gold sex links that are 3 weeks old. Do I just put the 6 in with the 2 and let them sort it out or do I introduce 1-2 at a...
Our RIRs are Camilla and Evangeline.
We have 6 gold sex links we are in the process of naming. One is definitely Olive.
I've made a list of favorite Cajun/Creole names for the rest. I just have to assign the names.
I love seeing everyone's chicken names!!
