I got 4 chicks about 2 months ago. I was told it was 2 barred rocks and 2 buff Orpington. Well the 2 are definitely barred rocks and 1 is definitely a buff Orpington. But one of them is dark brown and I’m not sure what she is. Can anyone tell me?

I got chicks about a year ago. I had 6 hens and then a friend gave me a bantam rooster. Unfortunately after a year of them free ranging 5 of them got killed. 2 of them got killed by a wild cat (I’m almost positive) and the rooster and other 2 went missing. We searched everywhere for them with no...

I’ve had chickens for a little over 6 months. This is the first time one has ever acted weird. We went out to the coop and one of our isa Browns was just laying there. Not running around like usual. And her tail feathers are down when usually they are up. I’m not sure what to do or what could be...

I have 6 hens and 1 rooster. I have 3 isa Browns and 3 white leghorns. For the last 3 days one of the leghorns have been laying on eggs and hasn’t moved! This is my first time with chickens so I have no clue what my next step is. What do I do? Lol.

I have 6 hens and I just recently got a rooster and now my kids are freaking out about eating the eggs because they say we’re going to crack one and a baby chick is going to be in one. We collect the eggs everyday so I don’t think that would be a problem. But today I was making them breakfast...

I have 7 chickens (3 isa Browns and 3 white leghorns) I also have a bantam rooster. The 3 isa Browns are 5 months and they are seriously the sweetest chickens ever! They let us hold them, pet them, they jump up on us and just hang out. But the 3 white leghorns are 4.5 months and they aren’t...

My chickens started laying around July 10, we had 3 that were laying and we would get 2 a day pretty much. On July 20 a friend of mine gave me a bantam rooster and now my chickens aren’t laying. I have 3 isa Browns who are 5 months and 3 white leghorns who are 4.5 months. The white leghorns...

I got 3 while leghorns from tractor supply and was told they were pullets. They are now about 4 or 4.5 months old. They haven’t laid yet but this one is looking and acting like a rooster. What do you guys think?

I have 6 hens (3 isa Browns and 3 white leghorns) my friend is giving me a d'Uccles Bantam rooster. Will the 6 girls be enough for him and do I need to know anything special about having a rooster? This is my first time having chickens so it’s all new to me and I’ve never had a rooster before.

My chickens just recently started laying. It’s only been about a week. This is the second egg we’ve found like this. Is there a reason it looks like this?

Oh my gosh!!!!! I just went outside and was hanging out with my chickens and I looked in the nest box and there were eggs!!! There was 5, but my daughter cracked one. I have 3 isa Browns so I’m not sure which one laid them but I was so excited, I screamed when I saw them.

My chickens will be laying very soon! This is the first time I’ve ever had chickens. So I was wondering do I just take the eggs from the coop and put them in the fridge? Sorry if that’s a dumb question. I just want all the info about eggs!!

I have 6 chickens. We built a coop and everything. Today when we were cleaning out the coop and run I noticed flies which is understandable but is it bad for flies to be in the run? Can they make the chickens sick? If so what can I do to get rid of them?

I know I’ve asked this before, but the older they get the more I’m convinced this one (Waffle) isn’t a pullet. What do you guys think? They are 11 weeks.

My local feed store just got Silkie chicks in!!! I want some so bad, but they said I have to get 6. I only want 3 because I already have 6 in the coop now and don’t want them to be to crowded adding 6 more. Is there any way to get around the minimum? Probably not but I want them so bad!!

I have 3 9 weeks old chicks and 3 6-7 weeks old chicks. They are outside during they day and go in the coop at night. I’m still feeding them starter feed. Should I be feeding them something different?

I know I posted a picture a few weeks ago, but is the chick all the way in the front a pullet? She just looks so much different than the other 2 her comb is bigger and her feathers look different too. When I got them I was told they were all pullets but I just want to be sure.

My friend has a baby double silver laced barnevelder that she is looking to sell I have 3 isa Browns and 3 white leghorns. The isa Browns are 6 weeks old and the white leghorns are 3 weeks old and they all get along I was just wondering how the temperament of the double silver laced barnevelder...

I have 3 chicks that are 3 weeks and we were outside with them and I noticed on had some blood on her near her tail feathers. Is there anything I should/can do for her? I’m new to chicks.
