I can keep him for as long as he is quiet 😁 I’m in the suburbs so against council law but for the time
Being he is safe. 🤞🏻 I have two in the incubator atm and due to hatch tomorrow here’s hoping atleast one is a hen!!!
Hi, my mums have always returned to the flock with baby after a week or so as I have always been anxious about leaving it too late and then the flock not accepting them... either way I’ve never had an issue but I would supervise for an amount of time to make sure they aren’t aggressive towards...
Hi all. I have a 16 week old mixed breed (Australian mix) for a while it looked very Jem like with short legs, round body, comb developed later on... but now she is looking taller and has me wondering! Any thoughts on gender?

Hello All! The age old question is being asked again! What gender do you think my chicken is? It is a light Sussex approx 6 weeks old, thoughts? I have included photos of the tail feathers, neck feathers, side view, and Wattle and comb

Hi! I've been watching my chickens... they are 7-10 weeks... and very interesting! ;) I'm trying to figure out the pecking order- purely for interest. I have two dorkings who typical to their breed are docile. I then have RIR and RIRxSUSSEX they are bossy! Today I checked on them and they were...
I know very little but from my understanding of introduction, it's great to have them separated by wire fencing so they can see and hear each other for a couple of days. I'd maybe wait until youre happy for the chicks to freerange and introduce them formally on neutral ground. I picked up four...
Hello, I just want to update anyone following. I gave my little dorking apple cider vinegar in water over two/theee days... during isolation her pooh returned to normal, and her behaviour too! I returned her to the flock and she started to have mild symptoms return. I was worried so had...
