I received these two Royal Palms from a friend. However we are unsure if they are two Jakes or if one is a hen? They both flair out but the one on the left stays in the pose longer. The one in question is the one on the right.
I have more pics and a couple videos if needed.
Well I'm pretty sure I have lost 3 of my chickens to a hawk(s). This happened during the day between 11am - 6pm. Last Saturday my adult EE roo never came home to roost and this past Monday two of my adult hens (an EE & BO) were missing. DH and I went looking and found two very small piles of...
Hello BYCers!!
I ordered 10 EE chicks from Ideal due to arrive in the next couple days. I remember reading a post on BYC in the past about placing new chicks under a broody for her to raise, but I can't remember the details and can't seem to find it.
I currently have 3 broody hens (Japanese...

I have always heard that a hawk will not take it's prey far to eat it. The hawk would perch in a nearby tree and start eating. TRUE??
The reason I am asking is I recently had one of my full grown EE hens disappear. It had to have been a quick snatch & grab since none of the others made a...
Well I've read about on BYC a few times but did not think my roo would do it to me.
My current flock includes 13 hens to only 1 roo. Plus ten 6-8wk old chicks that I am selling. They all free range from dawn to dusk everyday. That said....
I've had my EE roo since March 2010, bought him as a...
I saw this and had to share...

Her chicken must be potty trained..lol
I can speak from experience when I say I can't hold any of mine for a longer than a couple minutes without being pooped on. And she's wearing a black dress at that!
18 week old rooster.
His dad is an Easter Egger. His mom is a BCM/Black Australorp Mix
He is NOT aggressive. He has not started crowing yet.
Pick up only.
He is free to a good BYC home
I have never shipped eggs before, but I thought maybe this would work for all of you that do (you may already know). I'm guessing you may use egg cartons but if your only shipping a few or if your out of cartons.
It is a drink carrier that you get from fast food places. The eggs fit right in...
Hello,
I have 7 EE eggs in my Brinsea Mini Advance. I placed them in the incubator on January 1. Yesterday I hit the day 2 countdown so I did what the user's guide instructed: turning tray off, remove tray, place paper towels under eggs & fill both pots with water. From what I can determine the...
Santa brought me a Brinsea Mini Advance w/ auto turner I was so excited to start using it but I held off until January 1st.
I put in my EE eggs on the turning tray inside the bator. Here I am on day 5 and figured out my turning tray was UPSIDE DOWN THIS WHOLE TIME!! I am such a dork. So the...
Hello.
I saw roundworms in one of my hen's poops and started the whole flock on Wazine for 24 hrs.. Here 14 days later I am doing a follow-up treatment, they are all coop/run bound again for the day (and not happy about it I might add since they primarily free-range... ).
Most of the flock...
Hello,
I know I saw a page that consisted of multiple pics of chicken poo ranging from normal poo to abnormal poo. I cannot remember where it was.
Have any of you seen this? If so, where?
Thanks so much
Has anyone tried using this for a respiratory infection in your chicken? I read it is used for turkeys to treat erysipelas, and it shouldn't be used on turkeys laying eggs for human consumption.
If it is ok to use for my chicken's "cold" I am wondering if I not use her eggs during treatment...
My 9 month old EE roo has developed a runny nose and his eyes are a little squinty today. He has been squatting down alot today, so I know he is not feeling good. I have seen alot of topics on BYC regarding these symptoms and read using Tylan 50 or Tetracycline. I also saw where a BYCer...
Hello BYCers!
I recently had two chicks hatch under my broody hen. I had separated Momma and eggs from the rest of the flock before they hatched. The chicks are 1 1/2 weeks old now. My flock all free-range during the day, a few days ago I decided to let Momma and chicks out to free-range...
