I have 3 Salmon Faverolles hens that were hatched on May 6, 2019 and a Bielefelder hen hatched here on January 1, 2020 and they all stopped laying around the same time and I was wondering if they were doing this because they do not like the big beautiful Bielefelder rooster I hatched April 18...

My wife never had pets in her life till she married me and I brought my Samoyed, Arno Dog. If it is a chicken I would give the hen a name like Henrietta Cluck with the name so everyone would know I was talking about my chickens. Over our 43 years of marriage she could not believe the off the...

When I give my small flock treats it seems the rooster cannot pick up the goodies like the hens so I have a small dish I put his goodies in so he can pick at them. Has anyone else noticed this or is it just common with the Bielefelder roosters? My hens can grab the food like crazy but not my...

My hens get along without a problem but I have recently added a couple young roosters (The rooster are 3 months old. Before I get comments about roosters no getting along I will tell you they hatched on the same day and are very close to each other. They do not like being separated from each...

I converted an old baby bed into a brooder/coop with chicken wire on the bars which worked out great as a home for my roosters. PROBLEM: I am trying to build a much larger coop but being permanently disabled I do not move fast and the heat came too soon and it is too much for me. Because the...

I am posting the pictures of two baby chicks I hatched that are suppose to be Bielefelders and I feel they are not the pure breed because of their rather white color. I have hatch Bielefelder eggs before and they all looked like the pictures you can find on the Internet. Also are they male or...

I hatched some Bielefelder eggs and got one very large rooster (an only child) on 1-1-2020 who is driving me crazy. He is one month older then the rest of the his family. I have separated him from the little rooster and the 3 hens because he jumps around like he is crazy and I am afraid he...

I have been very stressed out about what would happen when my 5 new 11 week old Salmon Faverolles would merge with my 3 year old Rhode Island Reds from what I have read on the Internet. Salmon Faverolles so I have been really stressed out so I have had a 2 chicken wire fence separating them...

I bought 5 Salmon Faverolles that were born May 6, 2019 because I wanted some friendly chickens and they run when they see me out in their garden area even when I take the sunflower seeds, meal worms, etc. like I give my Reds. When I was raising them in my bathtub in our guess bath I did...

I spent a lot of time on the Internet trying to find out how long my 5 new Faverolles pullets need to stay in their coop to call it home and I could not believe the two week answer. That to me was nuts. Why? I finally got so frustrated and I called Meyer Hatchery and explained my problem with...

I was really lucky to join a really great fraternity were everyone really cared for each other and did everything they could to help a brother not like the fraternity house on the news who booze up pledges and hazed them. When you needed help with something you knew you could it and that is why...

I received my 5 baby Salmon Faverolles on May 7 and today I took part of the area I had for my 3 old hens for an area for my new chicks and I caught hell from my no.1 hen Henrietta Cluck big time. She ran around the rest of their yard they had making more noise then ever and you could say...
