S.C. means "single comb" correct? do dark browns have that much orange neck typically? I was hoping he was a light brown leghorn.

thanks for the info! Eddie just started crowing last weekend, I think he's just a beautiful bird. Here's a photo of him and his ladies.... //i think the buff orpington might be a roo aswell

excuse my ignorance, this is my first go round raising chickens and I'm curious of my young brown leghorn rooster is supposed to have white ears and is getting white tail feathers, is this normal?

Quote: its been raining all day but here is a pic of my barred rock pullet, i think here's eddie and his two new B.O. pals

Quote: I'll take 2! thanks!

Hope someone has some buff orpington baby chicks for sale!

I thought about Eddie all day stuck in his brooder alone:( So i made a makeshift pen for him next to the girls and he seems to like hearing their voices, actually they just started clucking for the first time when they heard him "cheep cheep", probably just a coincidence but possibly a mother's...

incredible coop/run/prison you have, I am jealous! but you can keep that cold white stuff;)

you say ur not trying to start anything but then you insinuate that if our chickens eat animal protein they are being raised immorally? me thinks you are the one that needs a lesson in tolerance my friend:)

u think chickens like chicken meat, you should see my hogs devour ham!

chickens are omnivores by nature, cant hold human values to animals sorry.

i cant wait till he gets bigger and feathers out and hopefully gets all the colors of a brown leghorn rooster, he better be real pretty for my wife to put up w/ crowing

low in the low 60's high in the low 80's in central florida right now, i'm thinkin of partitioning some of the coop off and putting him in there and see what happens. //i have him in a shed in half a dog crate w/ heat lamp right now, i do have a wire dog pen i can put inside the coop like you say.

I will wait for Eddie to get older before joining the flock, not sure if I can hold off 10 weeks but atleast a month or so. I'm hoping he is a roo b/c brown leghorn roo's are simply beautiful creatures but I would be happy either way. It seems like Priscilla the RIR has taken the role of...

Purchased a precious little brown leghorn cockerel? (the old spanish fella at the feed store claims he can sex chickens by holding them upside down by their feet and if they flap they're pullets, if they dont they're cockerels?) Anyway, I guess he's around a week old and my hens are alittle...

The coop is 3'x6' inside so I've limited myself to 4 hens in my opinion which should be enough eggs for my family. The framing of the roof is simply a 2x4 run midspan both ways, I am going to add a 2x4 across the top of the front to give the roof some slope. My neighbor does aluminum...

the run area is 12'x10', and is 6' tall but I wish i woulda made it about 6" taller so I didnt bang my head on the rafters! I figured this summer they're gonna need all the breeze they can get!
