    Looking for egg layers that are cold hardy

    Lol well funnily enough, the cold temps take a break in January usually, and they manage to molt mostly during those days. Our coldest days typically happen in February and March around here.

    Looking for egg layers that are cold hardy

    Hi! I just wanted to share my experience with Easter Eggers and Wyandottes. I live in a region that gets up to 110 F in the height of summer, and down to maybe 20 F at the lowest in the winter. Both the EEs and Wyandottes do well in either, as long as they can get dry in their coop and warm it...

    Rooster behavior response when I talk to him

    I have no idea what that would imply, but perhaps he is trying to assess the meaning of your conversation with him? I have 3 roos, and my first OG roo named Roger has always been respectful of me. When I first got him and he established himself as chicken leader of the flock, he did growl at me...

    Anyone have pictures or Ameraucana x Wyandotte crosses?

    I looked up "wyandotte with a muff" and found this thread, and I thought I'd shared my own experience with this; I hatched this handsome fella and he is a Wyandotte with a beard/muff 😊 I love him so much! His mom is a blue laced gold Wyandotte, and his dad is an Ameraucana mix. He's about 20...

    Lil Roos right?

    They look like roos to me too.

    Do Guineas prefer to coop with chickens?

    I took some pictures so you can see how crowded it has become. There ain't no way grown up guineas will fit in here. And I still have two broody hens sleeping in nests. So, I found someone with a flock of 7 guineas who is willing to take them. I think they'll do much better there.

    Do Guineas prefer to coop with chickens?

    Okay thank you. Sounds like I should probably find them a new home. Our neighbor has a guinea flock so maybe she'll want them. I took them because my friend had too many and was asking around for anyone to take some. She gave away about 10 but I didn't know what to do so I only took four. I was...

    Do Guineas prefer to coop with chickens?

    Hi! For anyone who has ever kept guineas or guineas with chickens, I am wondering why my 4 new guinea keets are sleeping in the coop with my chickens. I got them at 4-5 weeks old, and kept them in a pen for a week and a half. They slept outside for three nights, then moved into the coop and...

    Here's my mama hen Trina with her hatched chicks. They aren't her babies, but she's raising them and doing a fine job at that! They're 6 weeks old now and she's still sleeping in the nesting box with them 😄

    Blue Laced Wyandotte with a Beard/Muff

    I have this special boy who came from a Blue Laced Gold Wyandotte's egg, and his dad is an Ameraucana/Olive Egger mix. He has surprisingly good lacing! What's the chance the beard/muff will carry through if I breed him with more Wyandotte hens? Anybody know?

    Black Copper Maran BCM Male or Female

    Yeah the tail threw me too. As well as on my own BCM chicks. I had one with a larger comb and a long tail like the one above, and by the time they reached 8 weeks, they were both clearly pullets.

    Black Copper Maran BCM Male or Female

    Hey, turns out I didn't have a BCM roo! Lol I was wrong. Did this one turn out to be a pullet too?

    Feathers look tattered, feel rough, breaking easily

    Okay, thank you all for the replies! I guess I just have to learn the aging process for chickens then. I've only been at it for a year and a few months now 😁 and I got all of my starters as chicks, so this is their first year too. I tend to overthink, and I'm always trying to keep my pets in...

    Feathers look tattered, feel rough, breaking easily

    I have tried looking this up but I can't narrow it down. My hens and my roosters (especially the roos) are progressively getting rougher and rougher. Their feathers are almost crunchy feeling in some spots. I dealt with lice through winter and again in Spring, but they're all gone now and I...
