    Introducing TUDYBOOK - The Tudy Coloring Book Generator

    In honor of my favorite BYC thread found here (https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/this-chicken-is-not-dead.1632248/), I asked the prompt to make it look like Tudy was digging a grave for a chicken that was NOT dead, but dust bathing contently in the background. For those of you that...

    Straub’s search for colored eggs

    American Bresse or did you go the traditional French route? How was the taste of them compared to other dual purpose breeds?

    This is amazing! She looks like a feather duster. Poor thing!

    Amercauna not laying.

    It could be a couple things. 1) Lack of daylight hours and 2) stress from bullying. I bet you'll get more eggs once the daylight hours lengthen. It doesn't sound like you have full-on bullying. Sounds to me like normal pecking order stuff. They're young so it's not surprising that thay are at...

    Wild chicken in our yard

    Ah understood. I would say young female mixed breed. You can check for bugs but just keep in mind that she may also have hidden illness that could infect your flock. Most people recommend quarantine away for your chickens for a period of time, if possible. She's very pretty. Good luck catching...

    Wild chicken in our yard

    Looks like a young mixed breed pullet. Wild chicken? Like it just appeared in your yard? What's your general location?

    I think this is my 2nd entry? This is my Onyx Olive Egger from Ideal. She's not quite finished yet. She doesn't have a name.

    Barred rock

    Oh I see. So you're wondering which mix it could be. It could definitely be a RIR/Plymouth Barred Rock. Hatcheries actually mix those and call them Black Stars or some other name. They're sex linked so if the Barred Rock is indeed the mother, that chick is a female. The males would be barred at...

    Barred rock

    I don't think it's a Barred Rock (no white dot on back of the head) or an Australorp (they don't have yellow legs). Did you get it from a hatchery?

    Blue and green egg genetics

    When I was trying to figure out the egg color genetics, this website made it easier to understand. https://silverhomestead.com/how-to-breed-blue-green-egg-layers/

    Blue and green egg genetics

    I'm sure someone much more educated on the genetics of chickens will respond soon but if you can take a picture of each of the hens in question, we may be able to help identify which ones are more likely to lay blue eggs. Pea comb could be a clue but a variety of breeds have pea combs and not...

    Ainawgsd's farm chickens

    No issues at all with the buckeyes small combs?

    Any guesses on genders?

    4 weeks is a little young for sexing... but I'll throw out a guess and say both are little cockerels. Those combs are pretty big on such little bodies!

    It may not be SOP but I love her comb!

    Mysterious death of mysterious chickens

    You picked the right category to post this. I would definitely worry if I were you... is there a way you can block off these unknown chickens from mingling with your flock? The fact that they're just dying without any visible injury is alarming and points to some sort of disease, possibly...
