I don't have one but can get one tomorrow. If you are questioning whether it's a rooster or hen, it's definitely a rooster. He has worn the feathers off the back of two of the hens mating with them. And I am hatching some of the eggs from those mating's. I will post one when i get it.
I have two roosters, one that is two years old and the biggest and sweetest rooster ever. he loves for me to hold him and he puts his head up under my neck to snuggle. Him and his girlfriend had one chick they raised and it is a rooster as well. I have several hens that are theirs as well that I...
Got to love them. People who have never owned a parrot have no clue how smart they are. I have a lot of talkers and love to hear them. One of my indian ring necks that I don't breed and stays in the house with me, loves to hang with me when I am hand feeding babies. He talks to them and will...
It is, but I think I need at least 100 chickens to keep up with the 100 parrots, lol. The pelleted food I use is just about identical to chicken feed. I use to use it on my parrots but it's so dusty I gave it up, lol. My chickens still get their own feed that is appropriate for their age. I...

I got two that are suppose to be EE hens. I got them when they were 7 weeks old and are now 16 weeks. I am now discovering that one is a roo. Anyway, how do I tell the hen is a EE one? Hope it's easier to tell than the sex, lol.
Yes, I know and plan on collecting most of them, but I still wouldn't mind some chicks. I have great success with parrots so hoping to have some with these as well.
I live in South Carolina close to the mountains. Our winters aren't too bad here, where getting in the single digits isn't that often and we are lucky if we get one or two light snows a year. Summers are fairly warm/hot. it's been in the upper 90's the past few weeks. It is hotter than normal...
Ok, so fairly new to the world of chickens. I raise parrots but decided to get a couple of hens for my outdoor enclosed aviary with the intention of them helping keep some of the wasted pellet food and seed mix cleaned up. They still get their own food and lots of other healthy food items. They...
