Thank you. I was afraid of that :(

I have 4 chicks that hatched mid-June. 3 of them were named by my granddaughters. I think I heard one of them crow the other day and I can't have a rooster because I am in the city. I need to know which one - or ones? might be male. This one is Scooby Doo This is Dave These two are...

Wow. Quite the ordeal! Hats off to you for keeping the broody happy. We will be moving in a couple of years with - possibly 7 hens (5 are still babies and one MAY be a roo that we can't keep) I hadn't thought about HOW to move them! Good lessons, especially since we will be looking at a 5 - 7...

I did learn that last year, by losing 6 babies. It was tragic and I don't think the momma (her name is Blacktail) ever really got over it. Her mental state improved a lot when this batch hatched, but now that the babies are a month old and quite big, I wonder if there won't be a problem any...

This is Auntie (her name is Brownie - like the dessert) in her 1/3 of the coop. She gets free run of the entire yard when we're home. This is the 'nursery' before we put in a ramp so the babies didn't have to jump to get out of the nesting box. The wooden thing with the nests in it is probably...

I have been going through the threads but can't find this exact situation. I have two RIR x Leghorn hens. One hen went broody last year, I got her six fertilized eggs. I have them housed in an 8' x 12' insulated canvas tent. I didn't separate the hens last year because I didn't know any...

The rainbow flag isn't finished yet. I got occupied with other things. I'll post a pic of it when it's done. :)

I have 2 RIR / Leghorn cross hens. One is fine, the other looks a lot like the top picture - she's almost bald from the base of her chest to her vent, except for a few straggly feathers, and they're all poopy and smelly. My concern is that the sking that's exposed looks all red and angry...

I'm in Port Coquitlam. I have two RIR-Leghorn cross hens I acquired last September as proven layers. Welcome to BYC! This site has been an absolutely wonderful source of information for me, as I hope it will be for you. My girls are a little over a year old.

Thank you. I have learned so much from the people on this site!

This is actually a comforting thread. I have 2 RIR/Leghorn cross hens (Brownie and Blacktail) that are a little over a year old. One (Blacktail) got broody about a month ago, so I got her some fertilized eggs. About 2 months ago, we started hearing what sounded like an attempt at a hen, crowing...

Background: We have two hens who were proven layers when I got them last September. I have done a great deal of learning about chickens and their care, and most of it has been on this site! Thank you to all who contribute. Now, one has gone broody. I got her 6 fertilized eggs and she's happy to...
