    What The??? Bantam Rooster Australorp Hen

    Oof! I have no clue how they did it, but they did. My small Bantam Rooster, only Rooster I have, managed to breed with my Australorp hen. I only know this because I gathered eggs yesterday and the one I used was fertile. I'm not going to collect from her anymore. It will be interesting to see...

    Golden Sebright Feathers

    This is Mr. Submissive aka Winny. When he crows, it sounds like he is trying to sing the theme song to Winny The Poo. LOL

    My Growing Flock

    Well, I did it again. LOL Monday, I gave away one of my Golden Sebright Roosters. I had 2 and only 1 hen. He's now living on an awesome wild Mustang rescue farm. My two remaining Golden Sebrights are very happy together. I do have plans on finding a couple more hens for him. BUT, TODAY, in...

    5 chicks turned out to be 3 roosters and 2 hens - What do I do?

    Please take my advice. I had a clutch of 6. 4 roosters and 2 hens that hatched. I kept them together. As they began to mature, there didn't seem to be any issues at all. One morning, I went to let them out of the coop and into the run. Everyone was killed but one cockrel who did the killing. He...

    How long do broody hens keep their chicks in the coop?

    We have an extremely broody hen and her last clutch, hatched on the 4th of July, were out and about on the 6th of July. Keep in mind, weather factors into the equation. A July clutch with 90 degree outside temps is not the same as an Apri clutch in 50 degree temps. This is what I have...

    Blue Legged Bantams. I have no clue. Help me out if you would please.

    Seriously look a LOT like mine. They seem to be a mixed breed of OEGB.

    Golden Sebright Feathers

    When I first purchased my Golden Sebrights, I was less than impressed with them. They were high strung and just didn't fit my personality. I thought about selling them but was held back as I was trying to sell others from my OE Bantam flock. Long story short. I am glad I didn't make time to...

    Cockrell killed pullets and other Cockrells

    Yes. I gave our first clutch of cockrells to a friend and they are all doing fine without any fighting at all.

    Not the cockrell. But the coop.

    Cockrell killed pullets and other Cockrells

    Their age was 4 months. They were housed in a smaller coop, designed to house 4 to 5 full size chickens with an open run. A previous clutch sill has no problems as all the roos are almost full grown and housed together in a smaller coop than the one he was in.

    Cockrell killed pullets and other Cockrells

    He killed them. The last 2 days I noticed him becoming more aggressive. Didn't think it would come to this. Also seen him aggressively attacking the remaining pullet.

    Cockrell killed pullets and other Cockrells

    I have 1 pullet that survived. When I tried to introduce her to the larger coop with slightly older pullets, they were extremely aggressive so I placed her back in with 3 Sebrights I have, that love everyone. She's fine now. I'll be keeping an eye on her and them.

    Cockrell killed pullets and other Cockrells

    Much to my dismay, as I went out to my smaller coop this morning to feed and water, I found the carnage of a fight. I lost 2 cockrells and a pullet from the same brood. Standing over the carnage was a cockrell who began to beat up another pullet as I immediately removed him. Do I cull him?
