    Hello Chicken Friends, Quick question, are their necks supposed to look like this? Most of them have this bulge..?? First time with this breed... just making sure they are normal... even for this alien breed. I know they look funny compared to other chickens but goodness they are ugly cute! 🤣

    Hello! I’m trying to figure out if these are all fertile. I know for sure the two with the obvious white rings are but not sure about the other 3. I hope the pic is clear enough!

    Help! Aggressive Roo when 7 hens added to flock??

    Thank you everyone for your help! We have 4 acres for the chickens to run around in with different vegetation types. The new hens are very sweet and docile ladies. They have never been around a roo before so they aren’t sure what to do with him. I’m sure that implied rudeness towards the rooster...

    Help! Aggressive Roo when 7 hens added to flock??

    No I hadn’t been asked that question yet. he is a full size rooster. I want so badly to keep him but by ladies come first.

    Help! Aggressive Roo when 7 hens added to flock??

    I agree. Like I said he adopted us so I’m not worried about removing him for my ladies. I’ll try on my own this time and hopefully won’t have a strang roo adopt us again.

    Help! Aggressive Roo when 7 hens added to flock??

    Yes, we kept them separated for 3 weeks. They were able to see each other and mingle but not able to attack each other. We added them into the coop over night which they all did fine the next day. But he just started attacking them these past two days. I honestly have no idea his breed. I...

    Help! Aggressive Roo when 7 hens added to flock??

    Yes it is very odd... I don’t know why he is singling out the new birds. He isn’t even trying to mate with them just tearing them apart. I think we will remove him premonitory and try again with a new one. I just don’t understand. He was so good at first. He wasn’t aggressive towards us or the...

    Hi all, So we just started having a problem with our rooster. Back story on the rooster first. We raised our starter flock from chicks. When they were ready they went to our coop and then were allowed to free range within a large net. The net is to keep predators out. The chickens can fly out...
