Yes. It feels pretty solid and hard. It almost feels like I can peel it.

I noticed that my Rhode Island Red had a swollen eyelid. My Rooster was rough housing them yesterday but I'm not sure if he's the culprit. It's very hard to the touch and a little crusty. Does anyone know what it could be and how to treat it? Could I put antibiotic ointment on it? Any...

Hi, guys. I have 11 hens and 2 Roosters totalling 13 birds. I had a hen that tested positive for worms, not sure which type. My Vet attempted to get a dewormer that you place in the water but she was unable to locate any. The vet then gave me Ivermectin and showed me how to do the...

Give me a few days and I will.

These are my 2 RIR's. They look very similar to yours.

Thanks. It is so hard to tell. I've been having chickens for about 3 years and I've watched every video, and read a bunch of articles on this but when it comes to actually sexing them I fail miserably.

I totally understand because I'm fairly new to this also. I just noticed one has waddles and one doesn't. They are both the same age too.

This is the 2nd hen and they are both the same age. This one is much calmer and quite

Hey guys, I bought 2 sexed female Rhode Island red hens from the feed store about 10 weeks ago. I was feeding them this morning and noticed for a brief second this one did the feeding call like Roosters do when calling his hens when he locates food. She stopped but I started examining them...

I have bigger Coops. The smaller one is like the nursery until they get bigger.

My wife would kill me. I have 2 broody hens so I decided to buy these babies from the feed store in attempts to putting them under the hens. It worked for about 3 hours with 1 hen feeding the babies but I had to move them to the small coop because my nesting boxes were all blocked up. When I...

Yes ma'am. I have everything set up for them inside a large secure dog kennel. Got the broader ready. Thanks so much. I imagine they should be ready to go out in their Coop in about 5 weeks?

Hey guys, I just bought 2 Rhode Island Reds today. I live here in Louisiana and was planning to put them outside in their new Coop. The Coop has 2 parts, a chicken run and an enclosed area that's out of the elements. The low tonight will be around 72ish. I put a bunch of shavings on the...

I'm no expert and I trust the opinion of these awesome members. In my opinion the Coop is plenty enough for what you need as long as you let them free range for a few hours a day. That Coop looks like the Tajama Tajamahal I'm not trying to disagree with the intelligent members in this...

Thanks, I appreciate it 😁. I'm not worried about him but it's pretty horrifying to the hens. I don't think it does a good job of getting them to submit LOL. He's a little character with a big attitude.

My little Silkie Rooster will fluff himself up like this while he's running towards my hens. It's pretty scary looking and hilarious at the same time. It absolutely horrifying to the hens and they scatter like cockroaches. If he's trying to impress them it's not working. What is he trying...

Hen. I think it's a Buff Orpington

He didn't know. I appreciate the information you gave me. I had no clue LOL. I'm really excited that they are possibly New Hampshire Reds. I have 2 Rhode Island reds and I absolutely love them. They are the bosses of both Coops. I imagine these little ones will possibly have the same...

The reason I say EEs is because the guy that gave them to me bought them for his son the Saturday before Easter.
