    Barred Rock Chick question

    Here are the 12-13 week old pics of the chick in question...She definitely has a different body shape than the RIR. Thoughts?? I call her Looney UNI...because she has a unicorn horn. LOL

    Pellet feed at what age?

    Yeah, they are not having it...they keep running around chirping at me...like what the HAY is going on here. LOL I'll buy some of the growth and provide a blend of the two. Thanks.

    Pellet feed at what age?

    I have a 9 week old mixed flock. I live in Mexico and have a language barrier sometimes at the feed store. Question: When do I move from growth feed to pellet feed? Is there a difference in the two? I bought them pellets this week and they're not too keen about it. Are they too young or do they...

    Cockerels...what age do you need to separate?

    Well...because I have neighbors and don't want to be rude...I don't need any baby chicks. I'm strictly a flock keeper for the egg production.

    Cockerels...what age do you need to separate?

    I am a first-time CHI-Mom. My flock is a straight run, backyard mutt mix. LOL. The roos are starting to be detectable. At what age do they start being "machos"? Should I find them homes now or wait until they're an issue? Gracias :)

    EE w/ Willow legs? clueless in MX.

    Yes, I know that but she's just a pullet and too young for laying. We shall see :) So if she lays a pastel egg...I'll call her an EE. lol If not, she's my pretty lil' BYM. BackYardMutt :)

    EE w/ Willow legs? clueless in MX.

    Gracias...I don't know what a "typical EE" looks like, I guess. They all look different to me. LOL. Apparently, newbie ignorance :)

    EE w/ Willow legs? clueless in MX.

    I live in Mexico and get my eggs from a Rancher. He gave me (16) chicks when they were 1-2 weeks old. They don't necessarily "sex" chicks here or at least they (locals) look at me like I'm an alien if I ask about breed or sex of chick. LOL. They say "ponadera or pelea"...egg layer or fighter.

    EE w/ Willow legs? clueless in MX.

    8-10 weeks. Sweet lil' thing has the cutest willow/green legs. I'm thinking a SHE...also, is this what you all consider an Easter Egger? One pic has her with a flock mate to show leg color difference. Thanks, CHAMILY. (CH-icken f-AMILY)

    Chicken Broth Discarded Remains...

    I make my own Chicken Broth in the Instant Pot. The solids (veggies, spices, etc) that remain...are they OK to feed to the chicks? I have made them into squares to freeze and then planned to put them in the suet hanging piñata. Thoughts? Brand new Chick Mom, please don't roast me. Thanks.

    2 wk pic & 8 wk pic BREED thoughts?

    HOLA from Mexico. This is my very first flock. I'm from the USA but living full-time in MX. The language barrier has left me in a conundrum. Please give thoughts on possible breed and gender. I was convinced that it was a Barred Rock Roo from research when I became their new Chicken Mom. Now...
