I'm looking for coop ideas for my roosters. I just ordered this run online, it is 10ft x 13ft. I am looking for something basic that has enough room for a roosting pole (or two), food, water and is easy to clean. Nothing with nesting boxes please (unless it can be made without the boxes.)...

I hope I can get around to breeding them soon. I will let you know the results :)

No worries! I have no idea if my rooster has the blue egg gene but I do know my Cuckoo Maran hens lay nice dark brown eggs. I guess it doesn't hurt to try, either way the chicks would have a good forever home.

I don't have any Olive Eggers. I have Easter Eggers (I believe related to my rooster) that lay greenish eggs. I want to know if I breed my Easter Egger rooster to one of my Cuckoo Maran hens if they would make Olive Egger chicks. :)

I hope this is the right thread to post this in, sorry if it is not. I've had chickens for several years now but never bred them myself. I have an Easter Egger rooster and a couple of Cuckoo Maran hens. If I let them breed then incubate the eggs, would I get Olive Egger chicks or not? I only...

Thank you everyone for your replies! The pullet is already buried so I won't be able to send her out for a necropsy. I thought it would be too expensive but looking at the fees, they aren't bad so I'll defiantly keep it in mind for the future. I've been reading more on chicken seizures and...

I had a Cuckoo Maran pullet (7 months old) suddenly die last night (Sunday). I didn't see what happened, but found her in the coop at night dead on the ground. She was already stiff, but you could still move her neck. Does this mean her neck was broken? She didn't have any signs of being...

Thanks! I'll pull the layer feed in the morning. I don't think the hens will miss it anyways.

Hi there! I would like some opinions on this please. I have my adult hens and chicks in the coop together and the hens are eating the chick feed. The chicks are 14 and 13 weeks old. The hens are a year old and older. I feed Nutrena NatureWise Chick Starter Grower feed (non medicated) and...
