    Chickens afraid of DE

    What breed is my rooster?

    Thanks for the replies. Could it be a Buff Oprington x Black Oprington mix? I just looked at some images and the hen hatched from the same batch looks a lot like a buff-black mix.

    Having some trouble at night with roosting

    Hi. I have a 5 week old Lavender Oprington chick whose mother decided it's time to roost with the rest of the flock way up there. Last night when I went to close the coop I found him alone on the ground screaming for his mom who was sound asleep. I tried putting him on the bar, but when I went...
