I purchased some hatching eggs from someone local and they were supposed to be Olive Eggers. I just pulled them out of the incubator and noticed one has 5 toes on each foot, but no feathers. I messaged the person I got them from and they said there's a chance a silkie roo could have bred some of...
I have 3 hens and I got these over the last few days. One of them (she's separated because I was given too many males by accident so she's with one of them by herself) has laid 2 speckled ones and then today threw on that's almost solid brown. We're new to quail so I was surprised! The one on...
Does anyone know how long the elector is good for once you reconstitute it? I have some that's a couple weeks old and can't find my concentrate, just wondering if it'll work. Thanks!
I'm having a breakout of either mites or lice. I keep hearing so many good things about the elector psp, but I can't find any for less than $150. Is this normal? If so is there something else you'd recommend. We've had chickens for 6 years and this is first run in with them!
Hi, just wanted to see what everyone thinks. I think I have a pullet and a cockerel, but these are also my first silkies. I think silkie #1 is a pullet and #2 is a cockerel. They are 5 months old.
First 2 pictures are silkie #1 and the second 2 are silkie #2
Thanks!
My friend bought 3 of these as French Copper Marans. But I'm wondering if they are Cuckoo or even barred rock. Does anyone have an idea? I have read that marans don't always have feathered legs.
Hi everyone, I have 3 partridge Brahma Chicks that are about 11 weeks old. They all have hardly any feathers on their backs and vent areas. The pullet isn't as bad off as the cockerels. This had been an issue since they were first getting their adult feathers. This is my first time raising...
That's what I was thinking, but I just wanted to be sure before I got more attached. 🤣🤣
I got them as "assorted bantams" from TSC. Ended up with 2 bantam Cochin and 2 buff silkies. They both look like cockerels according to my mom's friend (the silkies)
Hi all,
I have 2 Buff Bantam Cochin that are about 10 weeks old. Any guesses on if I have cockerels or pullets? First two are Mango and the second 2 are Papaya
Thanks
Thank you! Looking at the saddled one now, it does resemble the light Brahma I used to have. But they're only a month old. The black and yellow one acts just like my two buff Cochin bantams. I am in love with them. 😍😍😍
I got these 3 from tractor supply in the "assorted bantams" bin.
The solid white one is super tiny! Unfeathered feet.
The white with black saddle and black and yellow both have feathered feet
