    Deer feed plot seed...

    Would these seed blends + added calcium make for a good chicken feed or a base for a homemade feed? I'm wondering because we have a ton I can get at cost @ work. One is a three way blend. I think wheat, oats, clover (I think). The other is a 5 way blend. I want to say it includes pea & rape as...

    What is going on here??? Strange things happening in my broody pen!

    What Can I do to make the broody pen more secure? It's pretty tight. It's just a small pen with chickens wire all the round, including the top, and a small locking plywood door so that we can replace the food and water, check on her, etc. We're going out tonight to make sure there are no other...

    What is going on here??? Strange things happening in my broody pen!

    She doesn't have oyster shells. I've got her on chick starter since she isn't laying. Should she have oyster?

    I have a broody mama in her own private chicken tractor. Shes been sitting for 7 days now. She is sitting on 8 (now 7) eggs. Today I find this on the OPPOSITE side of the tractor as her nest. A single egg shell broken into and the insides gone, I assume eaten? Did she so this?? If so, why...

    I have a mama sitting on variety barn yard of 8 fertile eggs. The daddy would be just a game rooster we were given. The mama's are Australorps, barred rock, and she has one wheaten maran egg. Does anyone have a guess as to what I might end up with? This is our first broody mama & our...

    Pullets or Roos? Black Maran/Black copper maran

    I only paid $10/each for them..and he gave us one because he wasn't 100% sure the sex either. So I'm OK with mutts, just hopefully egg laying mutts.

    Pullets or Roos? Black Maran/Black copper maran

    I've thought the same thing looking at other's photos. I should have said "they were sold to me as marans". The "wheaten" is laying a nice, dark brown egg, but not as dark as some I've seen.

    Pullets or Roos? Black Maran/Black copper maran

    We got these 4 birds a couple weeks ago. The wheaten is definitely a hen. She'll be a year in October. The others were spring chicks, born in April. No one is crowing or laying yet. Any guesses on sex? We were hoping for all pullets, but I honestly think we may have two Roos.

    Are these roosters?!?

    Hello, Chicken People! I've been a long time browser of these forums, but this is my first post. We got these chicks 7 weeks ago from a local feed store. They are all supposed to be hens, but I suspect these 2 may be roosters. Opinions? One is a barred rock and the other a gold laced...
