    Ended Official BYC Mini-Contest—Funny Poultry Faces & Poses Photo Contest

    What a hard decision to choose just four silly pictures, I certainly never imagined when I got my girls they would be quite so full of character and make me laugh so much! Here is MeggHen, eyeing up the camera and wondering if it is edible (with Lady Jane looking on in her disapproving way as...

    2 chickens in need of rehoming - California

    Looks like I found them a great home!! Sadly I'll be chickenless for a while until I have a stable and suitable home for these lovable beasts, but I will still enjoy being a part of this wonderful community!

    2 chickens in need of rehoming - California

    It is with an extremely heavy heart that I need to rehome my 2 girls due to a Trans-Atlantic move. Both are "rescues" or have been rehomed previously so are of unknown age, but MeggHen (speckled Sussex) is probably about 3 years old, and Lady Jane (Welsummer) about 2. If you are looking for...

    Welsummer: paler legs and ear feathers

    I'm afraid I don't know the proper words to describe it but they are brownish with tiny darker brown speckles (egg on the left). And yes, white ear feathers in #2 (previously reddish-brown)

    Welsummer: paler legs and ear feathers

    Hello, I have a Welsummer who is approximately 18 months old (she turned up one day in our yard and no one claimed her, and I fell in love! So I don't know her specifics). She first started laying about 6 months or so ago. I have noticed over time that her legs which were once pretty yellow have...

    2021 BYC Calendar - We Need Your Pictures!

    My second submission. Unfortunately due to the heatwave here in California they are looking a little dishevelled but they haven't lost any of their cheeky spirit and have been the best and sweetest company during shelter in place

    2021 BYC Calendar - We Need Your Pictures!

    Well after seeing all the beautiful pictures submitted I'm not sure I can compete, but my two special girls Lady Jane (Welsummer, who acts as regal as her name suggests) and Megghen (speckled Sussex, who contrary to her name is rather fussy about egg laying) have spent all day in the mirror...

    Refusing to share coop while laying

    I will give the fake eggs a go and if that fails I will put up a new nest box elsewhere. I (and undoubtedly my neighbours!) am very grateful for the suggestions, thank you! Does anybody know roughly how long after putting a fake egg in place it takes for them to catch on? Just want to make sure...

    Refusing to share coop while laying

    I have 2 girls, one a welsummer who we have had almost a year, and one a speckled sussex who joined us about 4 months ago. Both only recently started to lay (about 2-3 months ago) but refuse to share the coop when egg laying even though it has 3 nest boxes. They always insist on using the same...

    Speckled sussex laying fart eggs and soft shelled eggs, also diarrhea?

    Since we have had her she has been like this, I wonder now if that was perhaps the reason why she was given away. Thank you for identifying my other girl!

    Speckled sussex laying fart eggs and soft shelled eggs, also diarrhea?

    Hi everyone, sorry for the long post but I wanted to give as much context as possible! Our chicken story is unconventional as a hen turned up in our garden and was never claimed by anyone (if you can name her breed from the photo I would love to know!). She is a sweet girl and we felt she needed...
