    8 week RIR, hen or roo

    A farmer near out town posted on a FB group about having RIR chicks. He said he could tell hens. Then when I called back about the first 3, have gave me the other two that were older and he said hens again.

    8 week RIR, hen or roo

    Bc y’all were right on the money about the last set of RIR, here are two more. I received the first 3, then when realizing they were all Roos I let the seller know. They gave me 2 more, saying hens, but I’m pretty sure the one on the right is a roo. But what about the other one??

    RIR chicks

    I know it’s too early for the most part, but I thought I’d try anyway. These Rhode Island Reds are 1 week old. Two of them have the same wing coloring and a stripe on their heads. One is different. Could you tell if it’s a cockerel bag pullet? In picture 1, you can see bottom right doesn’t have...

    This is Aloysius. He is a 17 week old Mystic Onyx rooster. We got him in a group of 5 chicks from Tractor supply August 3, and they said the eggs had hatched a week prior. We didn’t know at the time if we had hens or roosters. Well, we now know as he shows off his most superior...

    Run cover?

    I think it the run measured 16’ long by 9’ wide. 6’ high at the short end, up to 6’7” at the higher?? If wood didn’t cost so much, I would. As we spent $300 on wood alone to build their super simple house and run door, we are tight on funds for the run.

    Run cover?

    We are in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. So it’s warm and muggy most of the time :/ Yes, around the sides is plain ole chicken wire. I am in the process of getting 1/2” wire to put over it as I have read that on other posts on here before. It’s a work in progress, as I can only work on it from about...

    Run cover?

    Hello! So we have our chicken house built inside a run that was already on the property when we bought our house. What is an option to cover the run? It already has a bird mesh on top, but there isn’t much shade from 11-5 for the chickens except under the house (or in it). The feeder and water...

    Ivermectin and ignorance

    Yes, if a doctor prescribes it, I’m sure it would be fine. I believe the calls are for people who are using google as a science book and trying to prescribe something for themselves.

    Ivermectin and ignorance

    I saw this on our state DOH page today. Apparently people are buying Ivermectin for personal use against COVID. I don’t know where they got the idea that it was ok, but come on people! So just a warning, Ivermectin might be in short supply if misinformation gets out it against COVID.
