Good to know! Yes I think this hen wasn't handled at all growing up unfortunately. She isn't scared of me being near her, but hates being touched. She is also very aggressive and dominant in a flock. I have had to remove all smaller hens because she has seriously injured them.

Yes I love her so much I just want to pick her up and squeeze her! But she won't let me! hahaha

Hello! I would love to see some more docile less dominant qualities, she is very feisty and she is not a lap chicken. I would love some chickens that will let me pick them up, pet them, etc.

Hey guys! I have an awesome sapphire gem hen, she is two years old. This winter she has remained laying every other day and sometimes even twice a day! She’s free range, I don’t use lights on her. All natural! I want to get her a rooster so she can have some babies and continue the awesome...

Also that’s hilarious...Attila it is. I may just have to keep her solo!!!

Thank you for you knowledge and kind words!

Hey y’all! I recently adopted a beautiful hen, owner said she was too dominant and never got along in the flock. I’ve had her a few weeks now and I love her! As of yesterday I’ve had to take in a 4 month silkie. I hatched this one and the person who took it can’t have it any longer. I put the...

He came from a light blue normal sized egg...he was hatched along with 6 other eggs that were brown and green. It was a barnyard mix which may explain the lack of knowledge here!! Thanks again for your expertise.

Thank you!! So another note, the egg he came from was a normal sized egg. I hatched Silkies a month after him and those eggs were so tiny compared. Do you think the egg size changes this?

Thank you so much!!!

Hey thank you!! :) not sure why I said November lol, I meant August! He (or she) is only about two months old. Here’s him standing! Thank you again.

Thank you :)

Thank you :)

I appreciate your response!!! Thank you

I hatched this chicken back in August 2019** . Based on behavior I think it’s a rooster but who knows. Apparently he’s a mix, but of what? Feather black feet, green eyes. Pictures included.

Hey guys! My Silkies hatched about 3 days ago, I’ve got a runt who had some crust on his bum so I wiped it clean. I then noticed what seems to look like a prolapse? It’s a tiny pink bump under his cloaca. I’m guessing it’s where the yolk was absorbed? It looks like his innards are poking out...

Just saw a tiny pip! I think it’ll be okay

Hello all! My chicks are about two weeks old. I have three that I hatched in a Brinsea incubator, they live inside in a brooder with fresh pine shavings, medicated feed, and lots of water. I noticed each of them will sometimes have very foamy watery poop, but sometimes it’s solid! Is this normal?

hello!!!! So back around week one I dropped an egg while candling it, the air cell area of the egg cracked! I was sure it was just going to die but then I read you could save it. I painted a thin layer of water/Elmer’s glue on the cracks. Now it’s in lock down and it’s been rocking back and...
