It won't let me upload a photo but all her vent and nearly all tail feathers are gone. Looks like there broken off midshaft or been plucked out.

My oldest hens are from April 2016 so this will be their first year molting but so far only this one is changing. However she has drastically lost feathers in the last 2 days and even when I pick her up they fall out in chunks. Is this normal? Nobody else is loosing feathers yet.

Is it normal for them to become more white feathered as they age? Mine did a light milt early in the fall and her head and neck is now completely white!

Thanks for everyone's input!

Not sure why all my photos aren't posting.i believe the red is a cross as well.i got a rainbow mix of eggs and my broody hatched them.unfortunately she was a better mama than me and I just can't keep the all. Hoping to sell a few at a swap this weekend and I'd love to be able to give people an...

Thanks,! How about this one?

Any idea on breeds? They are around 6 months except for the older black and white hen whom I was told was a cuckoo marans but I'm not for sure because I was told the younger one was a barred rock and they look similar to me. Seems everyone has a different opinion of what they all are. Help...

He was in the "rainbow mix".

I've gotta get rid of this fella. He crows constantly and we live in a subdivision. He hatched May 1 of this year. The eggs I got were supposed to be as attached.

I will have to try and be more present and see what's going on during the laying hours. It could simply be one of the newbies hanging out in the way. They tend to spend time inside the coop during the day. Unfortunately I can't reconfigure the coop design as the nest boxes were built in.

I have 5 girls that are from April 2016. Until this past April all of them layed daily in a bucket on the floor of the coop(rather than the best boxes hanging 2 feet above said bucket). Since one went broody and hatched my April 2017 flock only 2-3 have been laying and they are doing it on the...

Hi! One of my broodies hatched 10 eggs and 2 ended up being roosters. They are about 3.5 months now and one of them (the gray) is crowing very loud all day long. Unfortunately we live in a subdivision so I'm afraid I will have to get rid of him. My question is, he seems to be the dominant. He's...

Thank you!!!

I need help identifying these birds. Trying to thin my flock but I don't know what I have!

I figured those two you mentioned were roos. I had another gray one but it died somehow :( I think the other blue Gray you mentioned is a pullet as the hatch mates both have(had) the obvious combs. I'll attach a screenshot of the description from the farm I bought the "rainbow" from. I think I...

Thanks! Hoping to finish it off once I decide who I'm keeping :) Sadly Eenie has to be replaced, we lost her at Christmas.

I apologize for the duplicate photos, I've tried 3x to upload correctly and each time it gets worse!
