    Mean little cockerel

    Oh my gosh, thank you for responding. My adults would kill him. I have zero doubt. But you’re right, that might be the best course. I’m really torn but I‘ve never seen such a mean little roo before.

    Mean little cockerel

    I have a 4 week old silver laced Wyandotte cockerel that ive kept separated with a black Australorp (female, I believe) because those two have been bullied by my older chicks (who are 6 weeks). I’ve tried integrating this little cockerel and Australorp with the more gentle hens but he bullies...

    A pic of my second blue Plymouth Rock (the one I’m not sure about) is showing up at the very bottom of my post. Sorry.

    Update on chicks - questions on sexing

    Hi, I posted last week and wanted to update to see if I have even more roosters than I could’ve imagined. I’m noticing more red in the wattles but I cannot believe Wilco could’ve screwed up this bad. It would mean 4/5 chicks are Roos! These are all 6 weeks, except black Australorp at bottom is 4...

    Pullets or Roos? 5 weeks

    Hi all, it’s been awhile since I posted but I’m needing help again. I’m raising 11 chicks and am wondering if I have a rooster or two or three? Can you please help? This Blue Plymouth Rock I’m pretty sure is a Roo. Then this is my silver-laced Wyandotte, 4 weeks. Roo or too soon? Third is...

    Pullets or Roos?

    So will it be okay to let the roo stay in the same coop with the two girls he grew up with? They seem to coexist peacefully, especially when allowed to free range during the day.

    Pullets or Roos?

    Thanks! She’s plucky. She’s kind of bossy. 😊

    Pullets or Roos?

    Hi! My chicks are about 12 weeks old now and I’m pretty sure my buff Orpington is a male but what about my Welsummer? I read somewhere that the tail of a roo will curve upwards? Please tell me I have only one roo! 🤦🏻‍♀️ Your help is greatly appreciated!!! 💜

    Oregon bill seeks to criminalize breeding/raising livestock for meat

    I lived in Oregon and left 6 months ago. I saw this bill and think it’s another link in the chain to restrict self-sufficiency and family farming practices. Up in Washington state, similar measures have been put in place to make it very difficult for small farmers to sell their milk, eggs, meat...

    Can someone confirm I have a rooster?

    Haha! Dang! I really don’t want to re-home him.

    Can someone confirm I have a rooster?

    Because I had hoped this Buff Orpington was a she but this one went from the most gentle chick to the most forward chick and got this bright red comb very early. These guys are about 6 weeks old. The other two are Brahma and Welsummer (and surprisingly those two went from least friendly to more...
