    Ripe watermelon?

    Can anyone tell me if my crimson sweet watermelon is ripe? The tendril is dried up but the ground spot still seems a pit pale.

    Hey y’all, my dad planted a ton of sunflowers around our property this year, (probably a couple hundred) and I was curious if anyone has any sunflower seed recipes!

    Is my Darlene a Darrell?

    Is my black austrolop a rooster? She/he has a curled tail, and a fairly large and red comb and wattle. I think I know the answer but I want a second opinion. My chickens are 12 weeks old btw.

    Not usual pecking order behavior?

    I have one just like that too! I was so worried about her being so much smaller than everybody else, but she’s at the top of the pecking order. She’s held her own against our big boy Rusty (rooster) who’s almost twice her size, and beats on the bigger hens if they get in her way. She’s not a...

    Not usual pecking order behavior?

    Sorry I completely forgot about this post! 😂 My Americana is in fact a rooster, and everyone is figured out now with the occasional scuffle. My two roosters are getting along well for now.

    8 Week pullet with curled tail?

    Thank you! He and Merle seem to be pretty friendly, so hopefully it’ll stay that way. Now he just needs a name lol

    8 Week pullet with curled tail?

    Thank you guys for all your input! I really appreciate it. I was finally able to get some pictures now that we’re home. The first three are the suspected cockerel, and the last is of my Merle just for fun.

    8 Week pullet with curled tail?

    When did everyone’s roosters’ tail start curling? I’ve had suspicions that one of my Americana’s is a he, due to the bigger and redder comb, but I had just hoped it was maturing faster. But then it developed what appear to be saddle feathers, and now it’s tail is curling. I’m really hoping...

    Okay for Chickens to eat Japanese Beatles?

    They’re invasive from Japan, therefore the name Japanese beetles. Kill as many as you can, because they do so much damage. They killed our cherry tree quite a few years ago, and I’m still mad about it.

    Not usual pecking order behavior?

    I have an Americana pullet (possibly cockerel?) seriously picking on my barred rock cockerel. I’m not sure if this is normal behavior, but my Americana actively seeks my Barred Rock out, if I’m giving them attention. The Americana chases him around pecking at his face. This started only a few...

    Establishing a pecking order?

    My chicks are 4 weeks old, and sometimes get into little scuffles. They’ll square each other up, fluff their feathers and flap a bit, with the occasional pecking. I feel like this is just them establishing their hierarchy since no one’s getting singled out or injured, but I just wanted to be...

    I think I have a rooster

    Okay, and if you look at the second picture you can already see waddles. And he didn’t have tail feathers until about a week ago.

    Things you wish you could say

    If people are saying you’re not a good a person to your face, which you then deny, and then turn around and start calling people awful names, THEN YOURE NOT A GOOD PERSON

    Thanks! I appreciate the spin on the saying 🙃

    Help! Aggressive rooster or just dominant?

    That boy is stew bound. Aggression is usually genetic in chickens, so any other cockerels he sires will also be extremely aggressive. To the pot he must go!

    How Many Roosters Could I Have?

    Hey y’all, I’ve got 22 chicks, one of which I’m assuming is a rooster. I ordered all pullets, but we all know that’s not guaranteed, and will probably end up with at least one roo. So. That brings me too my question. How many Roos could I have without it being a problem? I’ve read a ton of...
