    Help please! 11 weeks old... Roo or hen Barred Rock?

    Hi, I could use some similar advice since I can't have cockerels in my neighborhood. These two are approximately 12-15 weeks old. I think the one with the pale legs is a male and the one with the yellow legs female.

    Sod OK?

    I have only 4 and they free range in the backyard. Due to several factors, dogs, drought, heat, a former swimming pool, the addition of stepping stones, we had a lot of dead patches and dirt/sand areas. This summer my husband started putting sod down in the those areas. After he prepped the area...

    Thanks Margie. This place is actually owned by a neighbor of one of my co-workers and I have put in a request for processing but am also trying Craigslist and I know a few other people who have farms/acreage so will try to place him before the processing date at the end of the month.

    Hen or Roo?? Please help

    I'm having a sneaky suspicion that my Silver Laced Wyandotte is a roo. I got her, Lacy, and the Barred Rock, Lucy, this past spring and they are inseparable so I hope that is not the situation because we can't have a rooster in the city limits. Any idea BC community?

    Broody Hen Thread!

    Yep. Just a wire bottom. We put shavings in tray under the cage but Pam was sitting on just plain wire and we covered the cage at night with some old towels. No comforts of home.
