Hey all!
I’ve got a bundle of Croad Langshan chicks (2.5 months old) from Spectrum Poultry and I’m starting to fear that all but maybe 2 are roosters!
Sorry for the lack of full body pics, but based on the combs, it looks like about 10 have pretty large combs while only two have much...
Hi All,
I’m looking into getting registered to legally sell eating eggs through local ships nearby me in California. The eggs will be laid by my flock of ~50 on my 5 acre property.
One of the things about the requirements that stood out to me is that if eggs are not sold on the premises where...
Hey everyone!
I could use some help figuring out what breed this white pullet is! She came as a “freebie” chick with some lavender Ameraucana chicks I ordered 5 or 6 months ago, and I tried contacting the breeder to ask but no response!
She’s super sweet, definitely an outcast from the rest...
Hey there!
I’ve got 2 lavender Ameraucanas, 4 months old or so, that need sexing! Fairly certain but want to get a second opinion before rehoming. Thank you so much for any help!
Thank you so much, that thread is very useful as well. It seems unnecessary to open it and further risk infection, so I think your advice of watching it for growth sounds like the best path unless someone else can tell that there’s a risk to the rest of the flock! Thanks again,
Hi Friends,
Looking for some help with how to respond to an issue with a black copper Maran rooster that I adopted a few months ago.
We just noticed a large ball / lump / growth (size of a nickel roughly) right behind the wattle of the rooster. Upon further inspection we noticed a much smaller...
Hey there! Back at it again with another Easter egger that I really hope is a pullet. I was holding her earlier and she really is sweet, so much that I started thinking oh god what if she’s a roo?
Let me know what you think! Thanks so much to this community for the help.
Thank you for responding so quickly! The beautiful ones are always cockerels, huh? For this type of breed is it most helpful to post a close-up of the face or do you need a body shot too?
Hi All,
Everyone has been so incredibly helpful on this forum. I have another challenge ahead in sexing these frizzled Easter eggers (half of which have non frizzled feathers of course) purchased from Meyer hatchery. Absolutely love them by the way! I’m mostly showing photos of ones that have...
Hey All!
I hatched this “lavender Ameraucana” from eggs from a local breeder. She was weak as a chick so I ended up hanging onto her rather than selling with the rest of that batch of chicks to make sure she made it through. 5-6 months later and I’ve had her outside with my Silkie flock where...
Hi there,
Hatched these two salmon faverolles from an eBay breeder’s eggs. I was assuming they’re cockerels the whole time due to the darker coloring, but just want to verify before rehoming them. Thanks friends 🙂
