Please help me help her. Any suggestions would be appreciated. My Easter egger puller just started laying and now I come out to this! Pictures provided. She is eating and alert and can still fly, but just wants to be held.
Hey everyone! I picked up a single supposed full size white Brahma chick the other day. Long story behind that, anyway the lady I got her from said she’s about 7 weeks, but she’s much smaller than my 5 week old EE. Was wondering your thoughts.
So last year I started with 6 beautiful chickens in March. My Amberlinks, Abigail and Amelia, my cuckoo Marans (I think) Joey, and my Bantum rooster Chicken little were killed this spring. So sad as those 3 were awesome layers, not so sad on the roo. He was a jerk! That left me with my 2...
This is Olive, my 15 week old Easter Egger/Ayum Cemani cross pullet. Yesterday, I noticed she wasn’t her normal self, not coming for treats, sleeping in the coop and had her tail tucked. Her crop was very distended (doesn’t feel hard, feels squishy). After some research, I massaged it and...
Just wanted your expertise on my two 10 week old barred rock babies. I’m thinking they are both pullets. Love to hear your thoughts! Thanks in advance!
So I know it’s a bit early, Pika is approximately 9 weeks old and while I do not see rooish behaviors the comb and wattles are starting to worry me! This is the only orpington I have, so I have nothing to compare to. Thanks in advance for the guesses! Really hoping for a pullet, since I only...
Hi everyone I know it’s still a bit early (not sure for EE’s-this is my first time with them), but I love hearing the guesses. I’m leaning toward both pullets, but can’t wait to hear from the experts! One gas a raised comb and the other has a pea comb. They don’t exactly look like the EE’s I was...
11 weeks old let me know what you all think. I am only positive that my 1 (Chicken Little) is a roo. The rest I’m not sure. Help if you can. I’ve posted before, but hoping now that they are a little older you experts will know
I got this chick at tractor supply. Apparently the bins were not marked correctly and since I’m a newbie I had no idea. Any idea what type of chicken this is and if it is a pullet or cockerel? I posted pics from 1 week through now at 8 weeks old. Sorry I am in some of the pics, lol. I’m really...
This is my first time owning chickens, and so far I am loving it! I was wondering if any of you could tell me the breed of the brown bantum and the black chick. I got them from a mixed bin at tractor supply. I know I have 2 Amberlinks and 2 Silkies. Yes, I got a mish mosh of different kinds...
So excited to have joined. I am a new chicken owner. We have had our 6 chicks for about 6 weeks now and they are growing so quickly. We have 2 silkies, 2 Amberlinks and 2 I’m not sures! So far it has been a very enjoyable experience. I look forward to all of the information I will be learning...
