    Adolescent lavender araucana changing colour?

    Well I would think it is normal, roosters tend to be multi-colored.

    What breed of chicken is this?

    They are buff Orpingtons, Rhode Island Reds are a red color, not a golden color.

    6 weeks old - Newbie with questions

    1. No, I have seen my pullets at 3 weeks do fight like that, gender doesn’t matter in the pecking order, even pullets will fight with cockerels. 3. No, in my experience, all cockerels are loud, but there is such thing as a collar for your rooster that prevents it from crowing as loud, try...

    Duckling swallowed a nerf dart!

    Well, I don’t know too much about the digestive system, but I know that what goes in must come out. Does she seem to have any issues? Not eating or drinking?

    Comment by 'The_Patriot5150' in article 'Common Rooster Myths - Clearing Up Rooster Misinformation'

    Great article! I never knew some people actually thought roosters aren’t chickens. And I highly agree with you that roosters can be good fathers to chicks, my Rhode Island Red rooster (a breed that is assumed aggressive the most, NOT TRUE!) Took care of my free range chicks until they were...

    Wyandotte hen or roo?

    🧐 Hmmmm.... 😬 I don’t like to be the barrer of bad news but I see saddle feathers and compared to the other (which is a pullet) it does look like a cockerel, also the comb is a deeper red and the legs are bigger than its comparison. You can also tell that the rooster has a much taller stance...

    Very Disappointed and Sad

    Oh, I know it wasn’t my fault. It was just a spur of the moment kind of thing, with all these emotions going on because no one likes to see a perfectly healthy looking chick die, 2 days before the date it was suppose to hatch. But, that is the risk you take when you use a broody and learned...

    Very Disappointed and Sad

    I’m so sorry. I know exactly how you feel. My main broody hen crushed an egg on day 19 a few days ago and I felt so bad and ended up blaming myself for some reason. The broody was a Brahma and she was a big girl, and sometimes stuff happens with a bird that big. So sorry about Freedom.

    Silkie roo needs a good home. 10 weeks old.

    Wow! He’s is a good looking boy! I wish I could take him off your hands for a breeding rooster but I live in Michigan.😢

    Barred Rock-pullet or cockerell?

    Looks like a pullet to me, but she displays a more male feather pattern on her wings.
