    Will My Cracked Egg Still Hatch?

    Initially it could have been incubated, but when she sat back on it the egg was completely smashed and yolk was all over the nest.

    Will My Cracked Egg Still Hatch?

    So I found this thread and was super hopeful that a cracked egg I found this afternoon would make it to day 21 after adding some fingernail polish. It may protect the egg from bacteria, but it didn't restore to structural integrity and the egg completely collapsed as soon as mama sat back down

    EE Cockerel?

    He turned out to be quite a handsome cockerel. Just started crowing a couple weeks ago. He will probably be looking for a new home soon :(

    Fluffy Butt Friday

    I'm having trouble finding pictures of my marans that isn't mostly fluffy butts like the photos in my original post, which is weird cause she has an adorably floppy comb. She's busy laying right now, but when she is done I'll go out and get a head shot for you and pictures of the egg. When I...

    Fluffy Butt Friday

    I'm not sure why, but when I see a large chicken with a fluffy butt, I'm reminded of this scene from the animated version of Robin Hood.

    Any chance this is not a rooster?

    Also check in with the place you got the chicken. Often, they will guarantee the gender accuracy to 90%. They may let you swap or send you a replacement.

    Any chance this is not a rooster?

    Yes, it's a rooster. Two birds isn't bad, but I've found that it's much easier to integrate a single new bird when they are as young as yours are. So, if you are considering making the swap, do it now, before all the hormones kick in.

    Advice needed - what to do after a runaway returns

    My old roommate had an EE hen that would escape the backyard and roam the neighborhood all morning before coming back to lay. Sometimes, she would help herself to the scraps left at the base of a wild bird feeder a neighbor had in her front yard. We found out later that she would sometimes lay...

    Fluffy Butt Friday

    Adorable! I hope you get some nice brown eggs from her. When she gets big and fluffy and starts laying eggs, post more pictures, especially fluffy butts on Friday. Kitty is my first cuckoo marans and I although her eggs are slightly darker than normal, she makes up for it by being super sweet, a...

    Gapped tooth cockerel

    I know as far as beak injuries go, this is just a scratch, but I was wondering what the best practices are for treating a beak when it splits like this. At first I planned to leave it alone and let it get worn down, but now I'm concerned that the split will continue up the beak unless I clip...

    Fluffy Butt Friday

    Happy Friday all! Call me weird, but one of my favorite things about chickens are their fluffy fluffy butts. It's like they're wearing bloomers under a fancy dress of feathers. And then, when they go and do that ridiculous dance while they scratch for food, I can be entertained for hours. So...
